Sign the Guestbook, Light a Candle
For a second you were flying
Like you always wanted to
Now you’ll fly forever
In skies of azure blue
We’ll see your smile in every ray
Of sunshine after rain
And hear the echo of your laughter
Over all the pain
The world’s a little quieter now
The colours have lost their hue
… The birds are singing softly
And our hearts are missing you
Each time we see a little cloud
Or a rainbow soaring high
We’ll think of you and gently
Wipe a tear from our eye …………

RIP Julie Hangartner
I enjoyed working with you Julie you’ve been on my mind . MISS YOU
Ron my sympathy goes out to you and your family
i worked with Julie at Roosevelt Middle School for some time. She was a lovely lady and I know she will be missed by so many. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.
My first spanking
One day on 20/20 they asked if you remembered your first spanking and if you think you deserved it. This is my story.
When my sister and I were growing up we used to spend the summers with our grandparents. They lived in McCook, Nebraska. We would take the train from Albuquerque to Garden City Kansas where they would pick us up. They both worked so Julie and I were alone all day. One day she wanted to walk to Hinky Dinky (a grocery store ). I didn’t want to go. They lived in a two story duplex. So I decided I would throw her down the stairs. The stairs were enclosed so I figured all she would do was roll down them. Well that night I was introduced to a Fuller Brush brush 12 times. Luckly there were only 12 stairs. Then I had to sit on each step for 12 minutes. She laughed the whole time. I wish I had gone to Hinky Dinky.
Dear family,
I was very sad when I heard that Julie past away, I worked with her at Little Angles child care center. She was a great person and a great lady to work with, the children their loved her and they loved seeing her everytime she stopped by to visit. She will be missed by all who knew her. You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Dear Julie
My heart is heavy and sad. Even though I knew you for only a short time I felt like I knew you forever. You always made me smile even on my bad days. I so enjoyed our times sitting down for lunch and just chatting about anything and everything. Your favorite topic was your family. I felt like I knew all of them even though we had never met. Your children and grandchildren held a special place in your heart. I enjoyed hearing about them. Then you would talk about Ron. He was the love of your life. How you met him bowling and when you saw him you knew he was the man you wanted to spend the rest of your life with. The fun you both had together and how he always stood beside you know matter what. I could see how much you 2 loved each other. I am sorry we did not get to spend more time together and my deapest sympathy to your family. I will miss you.

JULIE
Loving, Caring, Thoughtful, Humble are words that describe Julie.
She and Ron enjoyed the sights of the Atlantic Ocean with us in St. Augustine along with her catching a baby shark. This was a person scared of water and boats. Especially when the boat is 20 miles off shore.
We should of had her on a cooking show, defintely a winner. Her Pickeled Beets will be remembered always.
She is now free of pain, no docters and cold Iowa Winters.
She will be MISSED, Always Loved by her family and friends.
Ron, You to will always be in our HEARTS.

Dear Hangarther Family,
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. I wish I had the right words to say to about death to give you comfort. Instead, I will give you a quote from Helen Keller, “Death is no more than passing from one room into another. But here is a difference for me, you know, Because in that other room I shall be able to see.” Julie will be waiting for all of you in the other room with her arms open.
