To all of the Rustemeyer Family, I was so sorry to hear of Mrs. Rustemeyer passing. I wish to send you my deepest sympathy . I will always remember her fondly, from elementary school on up. She was the one of the sweetest women I ever knew. My heart goes out to you all. She will be missed by all.

Lil, was an amazing woman. She was firm but fair and kept a whole generation of Cummington and Windsor kids safe and accountable at recess! Thoughts and prayers to all of you. Hope your memories help you through this time.

To the entire Rustemeyer family, I am extending my deepest sympathies for your loss. I have very fond memories of Mrs. Rustemeyer.
She taught our 5th grade class, and was both quite tough and quite good, it was apparent she loved teaching. I remember the Math Minute quizzes every morning, and she even competed against me once with the whole class watching. We both chose the Division sheet although she said I could do addition if I wanted. She won. lol!
Mrs. Rustemeyer is also the one who picked me up off the ground and dusted me off and found my glasses for me the day my horse got stung by a bee while crossing Route 9, and we had an impromptu bucking bronco ride down Main Street, into the school yard and continued on into her yard until I finally got thrown off. She didn't laugh either, although I have over the years. We must have been a sight!
She is fondly remembered and will be missed.
