Bill and Millie Teuber were lovely neighbors when they lived in Montgomery Village! Such a nice couple! We were saddened to hear of his passing.
We worked with Bill after his retirement from SNET when he was a consultant at Nutmeg Utility Products. He was such a nice man very much liked by everyone. We also had the pleasure of meeting his wife Millie, what a cute couple they were. We have thought of him many times over the years with such fond memories. Our condolences to his family for your loss. Rest in Peace Bill Teuber.
