Teena Hossler

It is with heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved mother, daughter, sister, and grandmother, Teena Lynne Hossler, who left us on Wednesday, February 12, 2025.

Teena’s greatest joy in life was being a mother and grandmother. She poured her heart into her children—James Hossler (wife Grace Hossler), Arastasia Rolain, Zachary Steele, Chasity Dishman, and Jacob Steele—and found immense happiness in being a loving “Lissi” to her grandchildren, Aralynne and Carter. Her love knew no bounds, and her biggest pride was seeing her children happy.

Teena was a woman of nurture and creativity. She found peace and happiness lying in the warm sunshine, especially at the beach on Lake Erie. She adored thunderstorms, all things spooky, and had a special connection to dragonflies. Her love for music filled our lives with countless cherished memories, and her favorite poem, Nothing Gold Can Stay by Robert Frost, spoke to her soul.

She was also an incredible cook,her corn salsa being a staple in our family, and she cared deeply for her two beloved cats, TuttTutt and Alice.

Teena is survived by her mother, Janet Sivon; her children and grandchildren; her siblings, Theresa Miller Hossler and Ryan Deaton; and many loved ones who will forever cherish her memory. She was preceded in death by her father, Howard Hossler, and her brother, Dale Hossler.

We will honor Teena’s life with a Celebration of Life in March (details to come). In her memory, we encourage family and friends to send their favorite photos and songs that remind them of her to airyrolain@gmail.com. We will be celebrating her life the way she would have loved—sharing memories, making her favorite foods, and playing the songs that meant the most to her.

Though she is no longer with us, Teena’s love, laughter, and light will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
