Of the plethora of words that come to mind when
describing the house and life of Dr. Samuel and Beatrice Teich, there is
one which remains embedded in the thoughts of all who hear the story –
inspirational. For more than half a century, Dr. Teich and his wife,
Beatrice, showed their devotion and care to every resident within
Huntington Township. As a man who delivered an estimated 10,000 babies
throughout the six decade span of his career, Dr. Teich left a
remarkable impression on the town. Yet it was Beatrice, a woman who knew
the importance of family values, who made sure that their home was not
merely a place to live. It was a haven, a place where lives were created
as well as established. It was a journey, not a mere destination. Within
the house today, the charm of the past still shines through. Dr. Teich’s
original equipment remains intact and ready for service in his office,
just as it would have appeared nearly half a century ago. People in the
current day and age are always in a constant worry about their next move
in life. Yet, without the guidance of the past, there is no future. This
house is a perfect balance between the old and the new. With an
estimated 11,000 people that pass the house on a daily basis on their
ways to and from the train station, the house creates the perfect storm
for a bustling new enterprise. Yet, with the house’s grace, charm and
abundant memories, the legacy of the past is sure to work its way into
the heart and soul of any new entrepreneur. A truly inspirational
family, story and house, this is one opportunity which cannot afford to
slip through the cracks. |
