Mary R. Teeters

Our lovely mother Jean transitioned from her earthly body to her heavenly spirit on February 24, 2025, when she was 95 years old. She will be missed by many. 

Mrs. Mary Regina Teeters, beloved wife of the late Charles "Chuck" Teeters of 61 years is survived by her five children, Tom, Bill, Chuck (Beth), Marybeth and John (Stephanie), grandchildren James and Matthew (Raven) Mitchell, Mary Rebecca Cook (Chris), Ashley McKinney, William Teeters Jr. (Taylor) and great-grandchildren Benjamin Cook, Madelyn Teeters, Colby Moore, Gibson Mitchell and Brandon McKinney. She is also survived by her sisters Marilyn and Rosemary, her brother Dan and predeceased by sister Dotty and brothers Bill and Jim. 

Our mother was compassionate, loving, generous, accepting of all and most of all a devout Catholic and faithful member of St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Church. Our mother's faith in God never wavered and she taught all of us to have faith. Her favorite holiday was Easter. Let's praise a hallelujah to God almighty for the Resurrection of Jesus, Glory to God in the highest. 

Our mother was brave. Brave enough to pack up five children, leaving all her brothers and sisters in New Jersey to start a new life in Evans, Georgia, Brave enough to go on a first date with Dad when he took her flying in his plane. Raising five children was pretty brave also. She was brave until the very end. 

Our mother will be missed by many of our friends that she impacted. When we needed prayers, we would joke "from Jean's lips to God's ear". All of us should remember how she loved us, over the moon. 

We will celebrate our mother's life with a funeral Mass at St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Church on Monday, March 3rd at 11am and her Rite of Committal at the columbarium with a luncheon in the parish hall afterwards. 

Family would like to thank Priscella Davis and Kathy of Priscella Davis Personal Care Home and Aliesha and Carol with Trinity Hospice for all of the love and kindness shown to our mother.
