Jeanie Teer Fuelberg, wife, mother, grandmother, sister, friend, and teacher left her loving family and friends on the afternoon of April 23, 2021 in the company of loved ones. Jeanie was a special person, loved everyone, loved life and will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
Jeanie was born in Jacksonville Texas to Evelyn (Boone) and Elliott Teer. She attended Kilgore College where she was a member of the Rangerettes and received her BS in Education from North Texas State University. Jeanie’s love of kids and teaching spanned over 20 years. From Andrews to Sunset Valley to Dripping Springs Elementary, Jeanie loved each one of her students unconditionally and often recounted stories of her teaching career.
On the day she moved with her daughter Jana to Austin for her first teaching position she met Ben Fuelberg. Less than a year later, they were married in the same room where they met. Jeanie, Jana and Ben lived in several Austin locations before moving to their home in Dripping Springs in 1979. Jeanie continued to commute to Sunset Valley Elementary School for several years before beginning her career at Dripping Springs Elementary School. She volunteered in the library, Helping Hands, and was a CASA volunteer for many years. The friendships she developed teaching and her friends in the church and her Emmaus group were among the most important in her life.
