dear schaefer family:
what moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, that we may not understand why STEVE left this earth so soon or why HE left before we were ready to say good-bye. but little by little, we will begin to remember, not just that STEVE passed, but that HE lived. and, that STEVE's life will give us memories too beautiful not to ever forget. all my love,
