Reva Frank Teague

Reva Frank Teague, passed away peacefully at her residence on March 24, 2025, at the age of 80. Born on November 11, 1944, in Haywood County, she lived a life rich in love, family, and friendship.

Reva was known for her strong work ethic, having devoted a significant portion of her career to Velock, where she worked as a machine operator. Her commitment to both her profession and her family were hallmarks of her character, allowing her to strike a balance between work and the passions she held dear.

Her hobbies and interests reflected her vibrant spirit. Reva found joy in reading and had a particular fondness for trips to the beach, especially to Myrtle Beach. She was an avid traveler and cherished every opportunity to experience new places and create memories. Above all, her greatest love was reserved for her family. As a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, she took immense pride in her children and their families.

Reva is survived by her loving daughter, Kimberly LaShain Duncan; two sons, Doug Duncan, and his wife Gena, and Greg Duncan, and his wife Lisa. She is also survived by her two sisters, Frances McKenzie (West) and Shirley Rich. The legacy of her love continues through her nine grandchildren—Jamie Gaddis, Adam McDaniel, Derek Duncan, Jessica Duncan, Paul Duncan, Ryan Duncan, Bailey Duncan, Zach Duncan, and Logan Duncan—as well as her eight great-grandchildren, including Little Zach Duncan, Aaron Duncan, Joshua Duncan, Silas Duncan, Callie Duncan, Wyatt Duncan, Sadie McDaniel, Leah McDaniel, and Chloe McDaniel, with another great-grandchild on the way. She shared a special bond with her best friend, Freda Clark, who was a source of friendship and support throughout her life.

Reva was predeceased by her father, Frank Teague; her mother, Eula Grasty Teague; two brothers, Bruce and Doyle Teague; one sister, Kathleen Burns; as well as her first husband, James Gaddis, and her second husband, Robert Guy Duncan.
