He was born January 6, 1986. Tony grew up in Northeastern Colorado and Southeastern Wyoming. He graduated from Platte Valley High School in Kersey, CO in 2005. His Senior year in High School, he enlisted in the Wyoming Army National Guard and became a in flight helicopter mechanic. Throughout Junior High and High School Tony and his brothers entered many Bull ridings in Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska and Texas. He spent many a night at the Outlaw Rodeo in Pine Bluffs, Wyoming bringing home his share of the prize money and making life-long friends. Tony loved horses and would spend hours on horseback or in the round pen with them.
On July 24, 2007, one of the true joys of his heart was born by the name of Haley Renae. Tony had always loved children and now had one of his own.
Tony worked at many jobs but truly loved anything to do with Aviation so when he landed the job at the Cheyenne Airport, he was ecstatic. While living and working in Cheyenne, Wyoming the second love of his life was born on December 5, 2016 by the name of Eli Ray. Tony was a devoted father and loved very deeply. In March of 2019, he helped his sister by taking temporary custody of his niece Shalane. He put every ounce of love and care into these children.
Although Tony had his problems, he never met a stranger and had many friends. He was always joking and cutting up making smart alec comments that would always make you laugh.
Tony had three passions in life: his children, horses and aviation all gave him great pleasure.
Tony is survived by Haely Renae Teppert, Eli Ray Teppert, Shalene Pritchard, his parents Randy and Linda (Bolden) Teppert, three brothers Craig F. Teppert, Aaron M. Teppert and John H. Teppert; his sister Kathey P. Pritchard and two nephews Thomas James Wilson and Owen Lane Pritchard and many Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and Friends.
