Teddy E. Boykin

April 20, 1966 — July 31, 2022

ZEIGLER

On Sunday, July 31, 2022, Teddy Boykin, loving father, brother, and uncle took his final journey to be with our departed loved ones at the age of 56.

Teddy was born on April 20, 1966, in Hahira, Georgia to Abrin Boykin and Joyce (Duck) Boykin.

Teddy was a self-taught mechanic, that loved tinkering with classic cars, being out doors, listening to music, and being with his friends and family. Teddy lived a full and warm life, filled with joy, happiness, and kindness. He would lighten up a room with his humor and silliness as he loved to be the life of any party. He has forever touched our hearts with his generosity, laughter, and ability to make all of our days a little brighter! He was a father figure and uncle to many, he will be fondly remembered, and sorely missed by all that knew him.

Teddy is preceded in death by his father Abrin, mother Joyce, and sister Wanda S. (Boykin) Gulley.

He is survived by his brothers Charles E. Boykin, Jimmie Boykin and Edward “Woody” Boykin, Sisters Dorothy Boykin and Geniene (Boykin) Fremont (John Fremont), Son Mitchell Wilson (Brittany Kuni), Grandson Mitchell Wilson, nephews Nicholas Boykin and Matthew Fremont, nieces Rachael Fremont and Maria Campbell, and many friends and family.

Teddy requested a Celebration of Life be held in his honor so we could come together and remind everyone to live life to the fullest. We request all of his loved ones to join us in celebrating his beautiful life at the Ameren Legion, in Dupo, IL on Friday August 12, 2022 from 4:00pm - 8:00 pm, all are welcome.
