1999 Pop's 80th

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
