    So sorry for your loss. We knew her many years ago. One summer when we were studying for our Masters Degree she spent a few weeks in our campus housing. It was the three of us, Rudy, Imogene, and me. We laughed about that for many years. If Rudy was here..he died in 2018... he would send his condolences also. Sincerely, Louise Yaksich

    In remembrance of Imogene H., she was much more than just a sister-in-law. She was a true sister, an unwavering friend who stood as my pillar through the ups and downs. Our hours-long phone conversations were filled with heartfelt connection and mutual support from the days when every minute counted. Immense is my love for her, like the brilliant diamond that my brother found in her: loving, caring, and luminous till the end. A loss irreplaceable indeed.

    Deepest condolences and prayers for the family. Imogene was an amazing teacher and lady.
