Tarey is well loved by those of us who have had the privilege to work with him. We will miss his wisdom and humor. He spoke of each of you with deep affection. May that love carry you through the hard times that his loss brings. There are not words to convey the deep loss felt in Tarey's passing. Love and prayers for all of you.

Tarey Schell was a valiant supporter of people with mental health and substance abuse issues. I came to know him in 1995 when he was a board member of the Mental Health Association of Fayette County, and was impressed by his intelligence, his good humor, and the deep well of caring that he had for others. He will be sorely missed in our community. My deepest condolences to all of his family.
