Condolence From: Jane Schaefer
Condolence: We prepare to greet family and friends to celebrate a life well lived and invite you to join us.
"Mom, the The love of your life has been patiently waiting while you raised us up faithfully and lovingly all while cracking the whip to keep us all in line. A fine balance of unconditional love and mutual respect. You have a lot of catching up to do and will be together for the first Christmas in 45 years."
I want to take this time on behalf of my brothers and myself and our families to publicly thank everyone for your kind words, memories shared and wonderful experiences. You each made difficult phone calls joyful remembrances. We had no problem sharing mom with you as she had so much to give expecting or asking for so little in return but a little time. She "worked on" (prayed for) everyone and anyone who needed it. And we all need a little help. She saw the good in all and preached to her children and grandchildren to always be kind, generous, and caring. To others but also to ourselves. And recycle .... Don't ever forget to save the bay (Kramer's and crabs... Need I say more?) Anyway, we've got a great family legacy with her part in raising up the next generation. Her pride in her family was evident to all who knew her. We will all miss her.
On Thursday we will turn her over to her two greatest loves ... our dad and God. We invite you to join us for refreshments from 11:30-1 at Epiphany... The God Is Love Church where she tirelessly served her Lord with her gifts. The celebration of life service is at 1 p.m.
"And mom, we'll always remember you for the way you kept dad alive for us and your grandchildren and great grandchildren. Thank you for that gift.
Don't wear Dad down the first day, and remember, you may have your biggest challenge telling God what to do. We love you mom. Go in peace. Thanks be to God.
And just this once, I have the last word."

Condolence: Our love and prayers are with you and your family Jane and Fred! May the Lord hold you close to him and give you comfort through this very sad time, losing a loved one during the Christmas season brings overwhelming memories of Christmases past and I pray that you can share all of the beautiful and cherished reflections together and rejoice in her memory.

Condolence: Miss Margaret was my "pew pal". We always set near one another at service and held hands for the Lord's prayer. She was so amazing. I would never have guessed her age. When she told me I often thought I want to grow old just like her. I will miss her every time I go to church. Epiphany will not seem the same without her.
