Mom was a devoted wife and mother who gave a life commitment to her husband, Joe Stimler, and to her children. She was very entertaining and could make anyone laugh just by looking at her. Her style and attitude were contagious to all her friends and relatives. She gave us strength when we needed it most, and unconditional love during the good times and the bad.
Survivors include sons, Pat (Joyce) Stimler of St. Cloud, MN; Charlie Stimler of Waite Park, MN; three grandchildren, Tammy (Doug) Treiber, Jesse (Jenny) Stimler, and Sarah (Joe) Peltier; and three great grandchildren, Sam Treiber, Sophia Treiber and Grace Stimler.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Joseph, on May 9, 2004, great granddaughter, Sydney Peltier, and sister, Violet Lynch.
We, her family, will miss her always, but will celebrate her life daily knowing that she is in the good hands of God the Almighty Father and with her true love, Joe Stimler.
Please pray for her, and celebrate her life as her family will.
