Ursula graduated from Iowa City High School and received her nursing degree at Mercy Hospital School of Nursing. Ursula married Loren Gene Teggatz in 1959 and they had four children: Roxann, Renee, Ross and Rex. She also was a proud grandmother and great-grandmother to 10.

In addition to nursing and private practice care, she served in the Steven Ministries and volunteered at Mercy and University of Iowa Hospitals under the guidance of Rev. Harold Scheer. Ursula was passionate about wildlife and gardening. Each year Ursula would bring out the Easter lilies. She asked to let all her family, friends and acquaintances know that "Christ has risen, He has risen indeed!" Mom you will be missed.
