Obituary - Larry Leo Teer
Larry was born November 26th, 1968, in Kansas City, Missouri to Leo and Shirley Teer. He started working for the city right out of high school, shortly after that he became an Iron Worker. Larry loved to cook; he was a cook in many different restaurants from Kansas City to Springfield. He was a mover for North American Moving Company as well. He worked hard and played harder.
Whether watching Star Trek and other movies or playing cards, pool, chess, cribbage, D&D, and video games-especially “oreo brudders” with his great-nieces. Whatever he was doing, he did it with love and joy in his heart.
Larry was a notable example of kindness, caring, and patience. He never met a stranger, his compassion towards others left a mark on everyone he encountered. He was a happy-go-lucky guy with a unique laugh and a smile that would light up a room. He was a great advice giver and particularly good at putting up a good debate. His heart was HUGE, he was never judgmental and always accepted everyone for who they were.
Larry was a man of faith and loved learning about our Lord. He often sent his loved ones daily Bible verses to encourage their relationships with our Savior. His family and friends meant the world to him, especially his wife Leona, they had just celebrated their anniversary on March 5th. Larry will be remembered for all the love he put out in this world, and even though his earthly work is complete, his legacy will live on in those that knew and loved him.
Larry is preceded in death by his parents Leo and Shirley Teer, his sisters Joni Bartlett & Debbie Gray, Nephew Timothy Hughes.
He is survived by his wife Leona Teer of (Humansville, Mo), 3 Daughters Toni Jo Teer (Kansas City, MO), Jessica Case (Florida), Janet Kirby (Colorado), 8 Grandchildren-Kaylee, Braylen, Dawson, Madison, Mackenzie, Kianna, Chris, and Austyn. His twin brother Terry (Sherry) Teer of Kansas City, Sister Gina (Charles) Sheppeck of Rondo, Mo, and his brother from another Mother Brian (Freddie) Herron of Bolivar, Mo. 4 Nieces, 1 Nephew, 5 Great Nieces and 2 Great Nephews.
Services for Larry will be held at 1:00 PM Saturday, April 1, 2023, at Butler Funeral Home in Humansville, Missouri. Visitation will be held one hour prior, starting at 12:00 PM. Interment will take place at Alder Cemetery near Stockton, Missouri.
In Larry’s memory and honor, as Ephesians 4:32 says; "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you".
