My dad, James Doyle "Chief" and James Teinert "Big T" were quite a dynamic duo as pitcher and catcher.  I have the fondest memories of watching them play ball together.  I hope God has a baseball field in heaven.  If so, Chief & Big T are having the time of their life.

Love, Lynn

Mr. Teinert,

It’s with sadness I write this. I want to Thank
you for the many laughs and memories you have brought to all of us. You were always a pleasure to be around. Heaven has gained an angel and I know you will be looking down below on your beautiful family. You will never be forgotten.

God bless

Aaron, 

Brenda,
I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this time.  It is never easy to find the right words to offer peace or even comfort to someone  during this time but I do hope you find it knowing we are here for you and we have you in our thoughts.  

-Chlee 

Brenda, Mary, Kayla, and Cole...

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you.  Mr. James was an amazing man, dad, husband, grandfather, son, brother, and friend to many.  I hope the good memories you all have of him will lift you up whenever you're feeling down.   Even though it's been many years since I've seen him, I am still honored to say I knew him.  

Tears are prayers too. They travel to God when we can't speak. - Psalm 56:8

We’re does one begin when you’ve had  a life time with a family? There isn’t a time that I can’t remember all if us growing up together.  I remember our parents loading all of us up and going to a drive in movie,  this is were we say Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry. I can still remember going to a movie theater and seeing Smokey and the Bandit.  Going to the farm as a kids  and swimming in the ponds, sleeping outside next to the water well, playing in the barn in all that hay, slaughtering cows for the year, I can go on about experience as a kid. 
Then we all grew up and boy all the weddings that we attended, talk about fun! 
Mom and Mary working together at the salon was another family we grew up with.   The Bavarian gardens Going to the German fest!
Or just next door to the steak house and having dinner and dancing to the band . 
And let’s don't forget the baseball park days.  James would be outside in the front yard with Brenda catch for her as she perfected her pitching skills . 
Going to church on Sundays and the going to the church bazaars ( lets don’t forget the raffle and winning the big blue Cadillac) James  hands were shaking so much he  could hardly get the key in the door!  
And as we all have gotten older we have been there as a family for some if life’s most difficult times. 
How does one begin to say goodbye to a life time of laughter, fun and heartache?  Suppose we don’t say goodbye but see you soon. Gone way to early we still had more to do.  
We will all move forward with a very heavy heart, but we will continue with all the laughs and tears as family’s do.  
You will be very much missed!   Thank you for being such a positive roll model in my life!  
Mary and Brenda we will all be there for each other in this difficult time, we are family, 

All my love 
Troy 

My favorite childhood memories were spent with the Teinert's.  James "Big T" would pitch to my dad, James Doyle "Chief" every week.  Memories at the ballpark always bring a smile to my face.  When we weren't at the ballpark, we were at the Teinert's home.  My sisters and I hanging out with Brenda and our parents playing canasta.  My husband and I play canasta now, and every time we bring the cards out I think of the Teinert's.   We all know that life goes on, but great people like James Teinert are sorely missed!

All my love and prayers,
Lynn
