“Our family celebrates the life of Marie Teal,” her family wrote in a tribute.

Born on Jan. 24, 1928, Mrs. Teal died on Sunday, July 16, 2023. She was 95.

“Marie dedicated her life to the care and nurturing of others,” her family wrote. “She spent the beginning of her life taking care of the children at St. Colman’s Home where she was raised and then continued on, caring for children and the elderly.

“Marie cherished her family and devoted her life to her husband, Clarence, and children, 22 grandchildren, and well over 30 great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren. We are forever grateful for the 95 years that we had with Marie, who will finally be reunited with the man she loved.”
