There are not enough years to go by to stop missing you, my dear friend.

I can't believe you've been gone 10 years. You were the one friend I could call, day or night, and you were always there. I sit back and just laugh sometimes when I remember some of our "adventures". Miss you every single day, Mrs. Mittermeier.

How do I say 'good-bye' to my dearest friend of 30 years? She was the lady with the lampshade on her head, always the life of the party. She was more than a barrel of fun, she was a true, blue friend in the good times and the bad. This lovely woman never gave herself much credit, her humor was always self-deprecating...she used to tell our boss, "I'm old and I'm ugly, but I'm all you got"!
Her family was the single most important thing for her. They were the joy of her life and she had everything she ever wanted in them.
There are people in this world that leave a huge imprint in the lives of those around them. Sissy was one of those people, totally irreplacable, truly a mold that God used only once.
Rest in Peace, my darling one. I'll miss you forever.

Sissy was one of the funniest people I have ever met. She had an amazing sense of humor, could tell a joke better then anyone and her laugh---my my-- if you heard it, you knew it could only be Sissy close by!!!
I am so deeply sadden by the news of her death as she was a spark of energy, loved her family deeply and though I have not talk with her in a very long time, she was always only a thought away.
Here's to you lady--some of the best times in my life-----the world has lost a smile---

I miss you Mom! When we go over to your house today to celebrate Christmas, nothing's going to be the same. I just wish that it was you that would greet us at the door with that big Ol' Merry Christmas! Who's going to forget the rolls in the oven? Maybe I'll put a couple in there in honor of you! The tears just keep rolling down my face as my heart is broken! I love you!

We fought, we loved, we cried, we laughed. There was never a lack of emotion in your life or ours because we knew you. I will miss you and always love you.

Herzliches Beileid. Was Sissy an Guten in die Welt hinaus gab, geht nicht verloren. (Sincere condolences. The good that Sissy gave to the world will not be lost.) My wife and I met Sissy in Hof, Germany in 1963. Although we have not seen her over these many years, Sissy has always been remembered as a very fun loving person and will be greatly missed by all of her many friends from Hof.

December 22, 2009

I met Sissy at the Best Western Omaha Inn in 1980, where we both worked. Her laugh, her zest for life is still very very clear to me. You never forget someone like Sissy.

I am deeply sad for her family.

Dear John, Christina, Sean and Family

Sissy will be dearly remembered by many. I am much richer having known her and I will miss her and her phone calls. She now will watch over all of us from a much better place. "It is better having had her in our lives for a little while then not having known her at all".

We have loved Sissy for several years. She was always such fun to visit with, and always made me laugh. Her love for her family was evident in all our conversations. We will miss you, Sissy! Brenda, Bill, and Spencer Roach

John and Family. Thank you for letting us know. We have wonderful memories of the German Christmas dinners she made for us. Great food, great friends, great fun. Will miss her. Will always remember her jest for life, her laugh, and her stories. So glad we knew her. We loved her too. Our prayers are with you all. Jim and Yolanda Fasen

I only knew Sissy a very short while. She had a uniqueness about her that is unforgettable. Her sense of humor and most of all her fiesty outlook on life made her all the more one of a kind.
I'll miss her.

To John and the whole Mittermeier family:
I was saddened to hear of Giselle's passing. She made me laugh lots of times. I will never forget her, or that contagious laugh she had. She was one special lady. I am sure she is leaving behind a lot of wonderful memories. Cherish them always! My thoughts and prayers are with everyone of you!

I heard this at a recent funeral: "Everyone dies, living is optional".....my brother John brought our family his wife who chose to live life to it's fullest. Steve and Quinn, two pretty macho teenagers cried yesterday, we all did, but we laughed too. All of us will miss Giselle, she lived and enjoyed life. What we can learn from her is how to live...Life is wonderful, live it hard in honor of Giselle!! I'm saddened naturally because we will all miss Giselle. Cry and laugh, cry and laugh, repeat this cyle all your life....it's a Mittermeier thing.......My deepest condolences family and friends. The Mittermeier's of Topeka, Kansas.
