Dear Schaefer family,
I miss your parents so much and especially the HUGE red couch. When Phil and I visited neither of us could touch the floor.
Jack blessed my family and my children in more ways that I can count and I miss our Wed night Bible study. God bless you all and your memories of him.

Carol, hardly a Saturday goes by that I don't think of your Dad at church. During Fr. Chris' eulogy, I was surprised to hear that he was such a successful businessman and so giving to the community and to those blessed enough to have known him. He was so humble, loving and caring. I'm sure he's with your Mom and happier than ever! God Bless

Jack Schaefer was the finest man we have ever known. He was kind and generous and set a fine example for all to emulate. We are truly saddened.

I feel so blessed to have known Jack. He was such a loving and generous person and a huge part of my life. He loved Jesus and now is with
Him and his cherished wife Rita.

My condolences to the Schaefer family. I was employed at Specialty Papers when Jack purchased the company. It was a great place to work as the company prospered under Jack´s leadership.

My sympathies to Jack's family. I always enjoyed our brief chats at church the last few years; and will miss his smile. God bless.
