Dean Gerard Kugel, DMD, PhD, said the college\u2019s mandatory clinic on Nov. 24 will be canceled so the UNMC community can attend Dr. Sigler\u2019s celebration of life. (See included information for complete services.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Sigler won many teaching awards during his career, including being named Outstanding Teacher by the UNMC Faculty Senate in 2014. At that time, he said two of the most rewarding things about teaching were \u201cthe relationships you form with students and faculty\u201d and \u201cseeing students improve, especially those who struggled initially.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group callout\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Services for Dr. Sigler<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A visitation for Dr. Sigler will be held Sunday, Nov. 23,&nbsp;from 3-5 p.m. at Roper and Sons, South Chapel, 3950 Hohensee Drive in Lincoln.

We have been blessed with many outstanding faculty members at the college, and I would place Dr. Sigler among the very best.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A 30-year Army veteran, Dr. Sigler retired from military service in 2005 at the rank of colonel. He joined UNMC in 2006, retiring in 2020 but continuing to teach part time until May of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his military career, he was awarded the Meritorious Service Medal, Army Commendation Medal, Expert Field Badge, Order of Military Medical Merit, National Defense Service Medal, Overseas Service Ribbon and the Legion of Merit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His dental career was just as celebrated. In addition to those already mentioned, Dr. Sigler\u2019s professional honors and awards included the Dr. T.H. Williams Memorial Award, Mentor of the Year, Judson C. Hickey Scientific Writing Award, the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry Alumni Associate Outstanding Educator Award, the Dr. Kenneth Batenhorst Memorial Faculty Four-Year Teaching Award twice and numerous faculty recognition awards from dental multiple classes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Dr. Sigler embodied everything we value in a teacher, mentor and colleague,&#8221; said Gerard Kugel, DMD, PhD, dean of the UNMC College of Dentistry. &#8220;He combined remarkable clinical skill with a deep compassion for his students and patients. His impact extended far beyond the classroom\u2014he inspired excellence, professionalism, and kindness in everyone around him.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Kugel added: &#8220;Dr. Sigler served his country and his profession with humility and distinction, and his legacy will live on in the countless students and colleagues whose lives he touched. We are honored to have had him as part of our College of Dentistry family.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA remarkable person, an outstanding teacher and role model,\u201d is how former dental dean John Reinhardt, DDS, described his close friend. \u201cHe was beloved by students, faculty, staff and patients. Day-to-day, he always focused on doing his job well and making those with whom he interacted feel respected. His character, empathy and positivity set a wonderful example for students, as well as putting them at their ease and inspiring them to strive to be their best.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Sigler also was the starting quarterback for the 1969 Nebraska Cornhuskers, but he chose dental school over coaching after a two-year stint as a graduate coaching assistant for the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YhuEkniLGZk\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"a 2019 interview with KETV, opens in a new window\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a 2019 interview with KETV<\/a>, he spoke about his football career but also his love for teaching. \u201cYou can mentor young people, and you have a chance on a daily basis to make a difference in their lives,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an interview with UNMC Today following his Outstanding Teacher Award, he said, \u201cIt\u2019s very rewarding when students tell you \u2014 while they are in school or after they graduate \u2014 that you have made a positive difference not only in their professional career, but also in their growth as a person.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Erica Jasa, DDS, was one of those students. She called Dr. Sigler one of the most compassionate people she ever met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe showed a kindness and dedication toward his students that was inspiring,\u201d she said. \u201cHe would remember birthdays or would be able to talk about hobbies \u2013 he always found a way to connect that wasn\u2019t dentistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe was a calming presence, too, if you were having a bad day or needed encouragement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a student, Dr. Jasa said, she could see Dr. Sigler\u2019s love and passion for teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe had an impact on so many lives,\u201d she said. \u201cI know all of his students would agree that we were honored to learned from him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A UNMC College of Dentistry alumnus, Dr. Sigler received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 1975 and completed postgraduate training in advanced education in general dentistry in Fort Hood, Texas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s difficult to accept that he is no longer with us,\u201d Dr. Vogt said. \u201cHe was one of the finest individuals I have ever known. I miss him dearly but remain profoundly grateful to have called him a colleague and friend.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Sigler earned accolades serving
