Obituary for Dorman Gene Teter
Dorman Teter, age 75, of Garnett, Kansas passed away on July 17, 2022 at the Good Samaritan Society, Olathe, Kansas.
Dorman was born on July 4, 1947 at Garnett, Kansas. He was the third of three children born to Harry and Cleta (Bennett) Teter. He grew up in Garnett, graduating from Garnett High School with the class of 1965. Following high school Dorman served in the US Navy, serving two tours of duty in Vietnam. Dorman married Betty Ennis on October 26, 1993 at Garnett, Kansas. Dorman worked as a welder at Taylor Forge Engineered Systems for over 30 years. In his free time he enjoyed working on cars. He was especially proud of the 1972 El Camino and the 1940 Ford coupe that he restored from the ground up, and then taking them to car shows.
He was preceded in death by his parents, and his brother, Sheldon Teter.
Dorman is survived by his wife, Betty, of the home; step-daughter, Brenda Hermreck and husband, Jim, of Garnett, Kansas; sister, Marval Hastert of Lawrence, Kansas; and nieces and nephews.
Dorman's family is planning a burial in the Garnett Cemetery for a later date.

Notes: Dorman lived in Richmond, KS. He was at our 25-year and 50-year reunions and at our mini-reunion in 2020. He is one of the few people in our class who still looked very much like he did in high school.
