Josephine Mary Schuler

Schuler, Josephine Mary (nee Montrey), her loving family mourns her peaceful passing on, Thursday, December 19, 2013, age 97, at her home in Fenton, MO. She was the wife of the late Frank H. Schuler, Jr., daughter of the late Olivia Teson and Joseph Jacob Montrey, Jr., and the loving mother of Lynne K. Barna (Roger), Bonita Spings, FL; Frank M.

Josephine was the surviving sister of six siblings: Ruth Schonde, Florence Brown, Olivia Quillman, Marcella Bohne, Patricia Yungewaelter, and Joseph Montrey. She was a talented artist who also enjoyed music and reading history. She could trace her family to the original French Canadian fur traders and farmers who settled St. Louis over 250 years ago. We will think of her often.
