    I was very saddened to hear about her passing. Ms. Guegel, as I knew her, was such a wonderful person. I had the privilege of being one of her students for 2 years and although she could be hard at times, she also showed me patience and care. Because of her love for teaching she made a difference in so many of her students lives. I was not able to keep in touch with her unfortunately, but in prayer I thank her for her kind words to me during my years in her English class. My condolences to her family.

    Michele still has the dog you made her and her son Blake loves it too. We will miss your Christmas letters. Enjoy your new life.

    She will be missed. But wonderful, fun memories of “mother” Guegel live on.
    Sadly due to illness at home, I will miss the funeral, but a donation in her memory is on the way to the food Pantry. Rich
