We are so deeply sorry to hear of Aunt Nancy's passing.
Even though we only saw her at Family gatherings, she was so sweet and lovely. We immediately accepted her as Family.
We all loved her and will miss her dearly. Our deepest condolences to Uncle Jack and her Family - Richard and Robin Orifice

I had the delight to know Nancy from the perspective of a child, and later as an adult. As a child entering her home, I felt her immediate acceptance and support. Nancy understood the privacy children need to play and laugh together in creative worlds no longer inhabited by adults, and respected that boundary. Meeting her as an adult, I was again welcomed and supported by an older version of the same slight, graceful beauty with the twinkle in her eye. I realized immediately that one of Nancy's many great gifts was that she had always known how to travel between those worlds, and delighted in doing so with her grandchildren. I am so thankful to have known her. To know her really was to love her.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

Dear Sheryl, Heidi, Mindy, and Kirtley,
I can tune my internal audio to listen to Nancy's catching laughter. I can tune my internal video to watch Nancy at different times in her life. I can feel her unlimited love around me. She never left. She is forever.

Nancy was a great woman who I got to love for 45 years. She laughed easily, handled 10 kids on her honeymoon easily and never blinked at the revolving door of kids coming and going.
She was a wonderful cook who could look at 3 ingredients and turn them into a delicious meal. She loved a game of cribbage, Scrabble and always worked the New York Times crossword puzzle.
She showed her kids how to grow old gracefully. She didn't create the quote, but the first time I heard it was from Nancy: Growing old isn't for sissies. Boy, is that true.
Nancy will always be present in our hearts and memories.
Love,
Chesley

I am the first born daughter of Nancy Juechter. My name is Sheryl, and my father is Joseph (Bud) Imler. (The one name not connected on the memorial 'face' page.) I will be 71 in just a few weeks. It is not often I guess that you have your mother into your own old age. I am here to tell you that it doesn't matter whether you are 5 or 71 - the loss of a mother is huge.
I am sure you have probably heard this before. I encourage you to visit, call, send cards whenever and as often as you can. Both you and your parent(s) will benefit along the way! Don't take for granted the days and years you are given. You simply never know when you won't be able to make that call or that visit. When that day comes no amount of tears or bargaining will bring them back to you. Yes there are memories, pictures, and I will treasure those, but they are pale riders compared with having the actual person.
I want to thank everyone, every single person who takes the time to write about and/or send pictures of our mother. These are very very precious memories and stories for us to have. It doesn't matter how little or much you write. I for one and my siblings will treasure what you send.
Thank you, - Sheryl Imler Hall Sussbauer
