Teka K Thompson

She was born June 22, 1964 in Bridgeport, Nebraska, the daughter of Kenneth and Luilla (Frerichs) Thompson. She attended grade school at Lisco, high school in Bridgeport and later Morningside College in Iowa and a college in Casper, WY. While living in Casper, she met the love of her life, Mike Francis, but decided to go to Long Island, New York and work as a care giver for a while. They were later married in South Dakota.

Teka and Mike worked on ranches in Wyoming and their son Michael Ray was born in 1987. In 1989, they were blessed with a beautiful daughter, Amanda. After moving back to Nebraska, Teka worked for several rest homes and also as an independent home health care giver for many years. Her last job was working as a veterinarian assistant.

Teka was a very kind and loving person, always ready to help someone that needed help, whether with a computer, taxes, school project, even sharing her home at times with those who needed help. She was a member of the Broadwater Village Board.

She was a wonderful cook and the nieces and nephews loved it when she would make lasagna for them. Teka loved to read from the time she was 5 years old and had a huge collections of books.

As Teka wished, she has been cremated. There will be a memorial service for her at a later date. Memorials may be made to the family. Online condolences and stories may be left at
