Theodore Teal

In loving memory of Theodore M. Teal Jr., a cherished father, grandfather, and great grandfather who passed away at the age of 71. He had an unwavering passion for rock n roll music, finding solace and joy in its rhythm and melodies. His love for his parrots was evident in the tender care he showered upon them, a reflection of his compassionate nature. Dancing brought him immense happiness, and his moves were a testament to his vibrant spirit. Above all, Theodore's greatest joy resided in the company of his family, particularly his grandchildren, who were the light of his life. His presence brought warmth and laughter to every gathering, his love leaving an indelible mark on those who had the privilege of knowing him.

Theodore was the loving husband to the late Cynthia Cantrell Teal. Caring father to Stacey L. Calamari (Alan), Melissa L. Teal (Heath), Theodore M. Teal III (Chantelle) and Christopher M. Teal (Donna). Proud grandfather of Katlyn Spadoni, Theodore M. Teal IV, Craig Spadoni Jr., Dylan Spadoni, Grace L. Teal, Allie Calamari, Noah Teal, Canden Calamari and Holden Detillieu; great-grandfather of Archer Detillieu; brother to Linda Wilkins Bardelmeir. He is preceded in death by his wife, Cynthia Cantrell Teal; his parents, Theodore M. Teal Sr., and Violet Teal; his grandson Hayden Calamari; his siblings, Sharon Wilkins, Henry Teal, Gary Taylor Sr., and Gregory Taylor. Though he may no longer dance among us, his spirit lives on in the memories we hold dear. Rest in peace, Theodore, your legacy of love and laughter will continue to inspire us all.
