I send my heartfelt condolences to Mitchel's family. O remember feeling awkward calling him by his first name but that was the down to earth, kind hearted person Sgt Teague was. I have worked with him the last couple of years helping Ashtabula youth explore serving in the military. Mitchel will be soarly missed.

The first "knife hand" I ever received as a soldier. SFC Mitchel Teague was more than RSP Cadre to me. An unfortunate event in my own life led to the wonderful opportunity to learn more about all of my cadre. 6 months of down time from ACL surgery brought me a chance to get to know these men and women. Sergeant Teague was one of the most kind, sincere, caring, and passionate human beings I've met in life. While RSP recruits trained in their tasks and drills, I stood aside with F Company Cadre and got to engage in conversation beyond the formalities of professional military superior to subordinate interactions. Sergeant Teague has made a lasting impact on my life and I'm so proud to have shared some of my time with him. I was blessed with an opportunity most other recruits, even his own, never got to experience. To be able to interact with this man as a friend brought real joy into my life, just as my interactions with the rest of my cadre. Sergeant Teague, you will be forever missed by all of us, but you will also be always celebrated for being exactly who you were. Thank you for being part of my life and sharing the time you had. "I will never leave a fallen commrade" I'll carry you on my back until we meet again.

From my daughter Kayleen Kennedy on Instagram who is away at her AIT training and has lost two people very important to her in the last week: kayleen.kennedy No one ever teaches you about grief. Let alone how to handle losing two of the kindest people you've ever known and being hundreds of miles away. My heart hurts so much and I don't know what to do. Every breath that I take hurts and I can't stop thinking about the last interactions that I had with them and how I could have done more... Sergeant Teague was one of the most influential people in my life. He was always so supportive and made me feel like I was the best soldier in the army. He always said that he wished he had a thousand of me because of how proud he was of me. I will never forget the day he took me to meps and he genuinely cared about me and my future. He cared about every soldier he put through the military. He was like a dad to me, and it's hard to grasp that I won't have him around to tell me how great I'm doing, even if I'm not doing all that great. I never imagined that I could grow such strong bonds with people and not realize how much more I should have done until they were gone. I loved them with all of my heart. Their compassion and love for others was like no other, and I will try my best to carry their compassion through myself. They taught me how to care and that every word that you say matters. The best people always leave too soon, but I am so glad that I was blessed to have them in my life even if it was for only a short time.

Sending my condolences to his family as I am having a hard time writing this while crying, he was so influential to me and my family. For not only did he recruit my then 17 year old wall flower of a daughter into the national guard but some of her graduating class. When my husband found out that his step daughter was going to serve he was like not without me and a year later my husband was under his belt. He was so stoked about my husband and his asvab score. As we sat at Meps we were there hours and he had a good listening ear and when we ran into bumps he was there. We will miss him. Rest his soul.

I’ll never forget seeing Mitchell run down our street on 9/11 wearing his army fatigues with an American flag. He was a true patriot. He was a friendly neighbor and a presence at Madison High School. I was proud to tell people he was my neighbor. I told him on multiple occasions how sweet, smart, polite and caring his children are. Such a sad loss for the Madison community. We are keeping you in our prayers Owen, Olivia, and Shannon. Devin, Kristin, Kaiden, and Ana Artz
