TEAGUE JONATHAN HUNZIKER

LANGLEY, B.C., Canada — It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Teague Hunziker, formerly of So. Starksboro, Vt., on the evening of April 15, 2025. Teague passed peacefully at his home in Langley, British Columbia, Canada, in the loving arms of his wife Sarah and daughter Violet, following a brief and brutal fight against a very rare and aggressive cancer.

Teague was a dedicated and doting father and a faithful and unconditionally loving husband, who lived for his family. He loved being a dad. He was the ultimate “girl dad,” a great hockey coach, and the best advisor, confidant and teacher. To Sarah and Violet, he was the world. He was incredibly intelligent, creative and compassionate. There was no problem he couldn’t solve, broken thing he couldn’t fix, or question he couldn’t answer. He was an avid nature and animal lover and always felt happy and at peace in the woods. He cared about his role in the world and his impact on others. Teague was a kind and gracious man. He was a champion for women, minorities and anyone who is victimized or marginalized. The world needs more men like Teague, not less.

He is survived by his wife, Sarah; daughter, Violet; mother, Mary McGrath; father, Mark; sister, Johanna; stepmother, Judi; and stepbrothers, Sean and Chad Harrington.

He was laid to rest on April 23, 2025, in a beautiful natural cemetery in the woods on Salt Spring Island, B.C., Canada, where he had shared many happy memories and adventures with Sarah, Violet and his beloved dog, Gord.

There will be a celebration of life in the coming months. ◊
