  Notes	From Jane Sanderman Mason, correspondent, note of May 21,2010 Greeley Daily Tribune (Colorado)  16Apr1974  p6 John F. Kellerman Survivors include...daughters...Mrs. Dick (Margie) Impof ofFort Lupton... ===== From Pat Buck, correspondent, note of November 9, 2019 When Margie was six years old, her mother died ofpneumonia. Her father never remarried but dedicated himselfto raising his daughters and and infant son. Times weretough, so the family moved frequently to follow jobs aroundWeld County. Everything they owned fit into the back of atruck or wagon and could be moved in short order. Margiemet Dick at a local dance, and they married in 1943 whileDick was home on leave. Fort Lupton was their home for therest of their lives. When Dick finally came home from thewar, they started their family. Margie saw to it that thechildren attended First Baptist Church in Fort Lupton. Shewas fiercely dedicated to her family. Dick worked for RoyAnderson at Anderson Oil Company. Dick had an 8th-gradeeducation and Margie had a 6th-grade education, but theybought the Anderson Oil Company, which thrived for 24years. Margie did all bookkeeping for the business. Theyretired from the daily operation of the business in 1987.In retirement, they enjoyed frequent road trips together.Margie has always had a heart for other others that wasnurtured by her father. Her father was a tough German butencouraged Margie to share what little they had and to keepan eye out for those less fortunate. She was taught tooffer compassion and understanding and that were it not forGod's grace, anyone could make insufferable mistakes andneed to be offered forgiveness. When wronged herself, shealways chose to forgive and let go. She was quick toentertain family and friends with an open door and a cup ofhot tea. In younger days she gathered extended familiestogether for summer picnics in the backyard. She had a lotof common sense, a sharp and curious mind, a "can-do"attitude, and resilient nature. Beyond raising children andbeing a full-time bookkeeper, she found time to upholsterfurniture and make paper mache puppets and jointed stuffedbears. She loved to knit, crochet, embroider, and quilt andmade hand stitched quilts for each member of her family.Survivors included: children Betty Taylor of Longmont, Don(Myra) Imhof of Central City, NE, and Susie Sutherland(Paul Patzkowsky) of Longmont; and 16 grandchildren.Memorial Donations to Meals on Wheels in Fort Lupton.
