My deepest gratitude to all that have posted such gracious tributes to my mom. She was a great lady and teacher. To all that remember, play the song " Chicken Fat" one last time as a tribute and remembrance of my mom.

Wow, it's been so long since I've seen her last. She was such a crazy gym teacher. She would get on my nerves but I loved her just the same. Heaven couldn't have gotten a better Angel. RIP Mrs. Klingberg.

She was my gym teacher for all of my middle school days at Franklin, and some of my high schooling at Clark. There will never be a time when I hear the song "do the hussle" and not think of her!

Thanks for sharing that.
I never heard that story, I will never look at that song the same again. "Do the Hustle"...I can see her doing that though. Thanks for the smile.
I miss her though.😥 We miss her.
God bless you,

Yes she is...the best mother in law a girl could have. Jill & I have been very blessed. Still are.
I love her and miss her very much. She always talked about the longevity in her family tree and how some lived to be in their late 90's.
I really thought Mother/Mom/MIL (as she liked to sign her cards) was going to rally and live another 10 yrs. I prayed God would take her peacefully and watch over, guard & protect her from all harm & evil thru Jesus Christ her Savior & Lord. I trust Him that He did. God hears our prayers, and I thank & praise Him for that.
Thank you for your lovely comment.
Everyone thank you for your encouraging words of comfort and prayers.
They are so very appreciated by Don & I and all of us Klingbergs.
May The Good Lord richly bless all of you.
Sincerely, Don & Cheryl Klingberg 💑

Wow, hard to believe all these years have passed, and she is a memory that will never be forgotten, am sure to a world of people. Had her for my gym teacher at Irving like, 1973, its unbelievable that all this time she had still been very much alive. Obviously someone who was timeless, or at least until God decided to call her home. Sorry for your loss
