October 18, 1920 - July 9, 2019

FRANCES TEEPLE Frances Cordelia Teeple, age 98, of Versailles, Missouri, passed away July 9, 2019 at California Care Center, California, Missouri. She was born October 18, 1920 on an oil lease near Sapulpa, Oklahoma, a daughter of Benjamin Harrison and Opal Elsie (Abbott) Carroll. On September 24, 1941, she was united in marriage to Truman G. Teeple who preceded her in death on September 21, 2000. Frances graduated Crocker High School in 1938 and attended Iberia Academy and Junior College in Iberia, Missouri. After moving with her husband to their farm north of Excelsior, she went to work at Primo Pants Company until her retirement. After she retired, Frances and Truman became avid bowlers and bowled in several leagues in Versailles and surrounding communities until Truman could no longer bowl. She was an avid gardener - even planting peas, corn, green beans and tomatoes this spring. Many people in the community benefited from her green thumb. She was a domino player and enjoyed playing with several groups of lady friends. Frances, with her warm and friendly demeanor, never met a stranger. Surviving are a daughter, Shirley Kidwell and husband Ross of Columbia, Missouri; a son, Garry Teeple and wife Kathryn of Fulton, Missouri; a daughter, Barbara Gaw and husband Ralph of Tipton, Missouri; six grandchildren; six great-grandchildren; a brother, Jerry Carroll and wife Sue of Shrewsbury, Massachusetts; a sister-in-law, Gale Teeple of Versailles, Missouri and many nieces, nephews and friends.
