Wyatt William Scheller

Wyatt Scheller Obituary

Scheller, Wyatt William - Beloved Son Grandson and Brother Age 3, of Cottage Grove. On January 3, 2005, from injuries received in an accident. Preceded in death by his grandmother, Janice Ewald. Survived by his parents, John Scheller and Angela Eppler-Scheller; his sisters, Sierra and Mya, both at home; grandparents, Ray and Joan Scheller of St. Paul; grandfather, Tim Cutting of Mendota Hts; his aunts and uncles, Raymond and Lori Scheller of White Bear, Katherine and Mike Klausing of Blaine, Suzanne and Pat O'Brien of Stacy, Michelle and John O'Connor of Oakdale; cousins, Matt, Angie, Nate, Jake, Alicia Derek and Cullen. Funeral Mass, 11 AM Saturday, January 8, 2005, ST. RITA'S CATHOLIC CHURCH, 8694-80th Street, Cottage Grove. Visitation 4-8 PM Friday at the church and after 10 AM Saturday at the church. When God calls little children to dwell with Him above, we always question the wisdom of His love. For no heartache can compare with the death of one small child, who does so much to make the world seem wonderful and mild. Perhaps God tires-always calling the aged to His fold, and so He picks a rosebud before it can grow. God knows how much we need them and so He picks but few! To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view. Believing this is difficult, yet somehow we must try, for the saddest word that mankind knows will always be 'goodbye'. And so when little ones depart we who are left behind, must realize how much God loves children.for angels are hard to find. Dear Wyatt, You are the sweetest brother ever. I miss you but remember that you're always in my heart and remember I'll always love you. You're a good brother and now a good angel. Love G.J. Memorials to Wyatt W. Scheller Memorial Fund, TCF Bank, 7155 E. Pt. Douglas Rd., Cottage Grove, MN 55016. Arr. KOK FUNERAL HOME, Cottage Grove, 651-459-2875.

Words can only express the sorrow we feel with the loss of Wyatt. Having lost a daughter a few years ago, we do have some understanding of your pain. No parent should have to lose a child. God bless you John, Angela, Sierra and Mya. Your extended family loves you and you are in our prayers.

I am so sorry for the loss of your son. I can understand the depth of your sorrow, and despair, since my 17 year old son was also killed by a school bus. Surround yourself with Family and Friends that love and support you. There are no words or actions that can bring Wyatt back.I can still vividly remember the feeling, and shock of losing a child. Hold on to all your memories, which I can tell you, that you carry with you in your heart. I wish for you the strength to get through each day.Love is a Great Gift, but also a very painful one. This a horrible tragedy,and one that is the hardest to accept, and understand.

Sincerely,

Kristi Schmidt

I'm not quite sure what words to say. I know the pain that you're going through and pray that God eases your sorrow. I pray that He also gives you the strength to pull together as a family and find some peace in those that are still with you especially your two beautiful daughters.

You are in my Prayers.

We have a 3 year old granddaughter,

going through at this time.

God needed someone special

To start a brand new life

So he reached down and chose you

a husband and a wife.

He loved you both so very much

He let you have a part

In giving life to Wyatt

Right from the very start.

He knew that you would love him

And care for him each day

He knew that you would pray for him

And give God all the praise.

You had no way of knowing

Your task would soon be done

That God would send His angels

To take him to His Son.

Now Jesus holds him gently

Within His loving arms

He cradles him and cares for him

And keeps him from all harm.

Those arms now holding Wyatt

Are there for you as well

For Jesus longs to hold you

And of His deep love tell.

Rest in the arms of Jesus

For He alone imparts

The love you have for Wyatt

His place within your hearts.

I join with so many others in extending my sympathy on this senseless tragedy. I heard the story on the news but it was the adorable little boy's picture in the Obituaries that stopped me cold in my tracks. I don't know why these things happen. I am only comforted in knowing that one day we will be reunited with those we love in Heaven. My prayers to your family.

Dear Andela & John,

I know you only in passing from the

Fitting Room at Target in Cottage Grove. I have seen all three of your beautiful children and please know this, that even though you had Wyatt for a short three years anyone could see what a wonder child he was. God must have very special plans for him to be called so soon. From seeing my brother and sister-in law when they lost their 15 year old son all I can tell you is remember him and thank God for even a short time given to you. It will in time become easier to go on a day to day basis. God be with you all and I will keep you in my thoughts.

To the Parents of Wyatt~

I do not know your family but I wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I have two boys and could never imagine anything so horrible happening to either of them. May the lord and your little angel watch over you and your family.

To the family:

I cannot express my greif and sadness for you...I am so sorry.

The accident happened at the entrance of St.Ambrose which is where my uncle works and my aunt was the one who told me about it... When she told me a little boy had been taken I was overwhelmed with sadness... I have a little brother and I could not imagine this happening to him and i don't know what i'd do if it did.

My prayers are with you and yours... may God pour his love and comfort over you in this time of sadness.

I have been fortunate to have raised my three sons into adulthood--but each and every day of their lives--I worry--will they come home tonight? May God Bless your family in this time of pain. Don't say GOODBYE to Wyatt--More like See You Later. I do not know your family--but hearing about this tragic accident breaks my heart. My family has all of you in our prayers each and every day. They say time heals, I hope it does. May God Bless You Each and Every Day. And remember, Wyatt is with you and watching over you from above. He must have been a very very special little boy for God to call him so soon.

Angela, I am so sorry to hear that this horrible situation involved your wonderful son Wyatt. I'm not sure if you remember, but you used to do daycare for me a couple years back when Wyatt was just a baby. My daugher, Aleah (the little red head) just loved Wyatt. She also really enjoyed playing with Sierra during her days at your house. I orginally heard the story on the news Monday afternoon but it wasn't until today when I read that it was Wyatt and John involved in the crash. It has been just over 2 years since Aleah attended daycare at your house and still remembers things that happened there. You are a wonderful person and you have such a heart for kids. I am so sorry that you had too loose one of your own so soon. I do have to congratulate you on something...since Aleah has left your daycare, I see you have had another child...Mya...I'm sure she is as beautiful as Sierra. Please keep your head held up, your faith in God will pull you and your family through this aweful time.

When I read the story of Wyatt in the paper, it literally broke my heart. I am a mother of three and would feel exactly the way you feel. I just can't imagine. Please know that although I can't ease your pain with any words, your family has touched my heart and you will be in my thoughts and prayers for a very long time. May God give you some peace in the days and weeks to come.

I am soo sorry to hear of your loss. I met you when your daughter danced at Larkin. I remember watching Wyatt grow up at the studio. He always put a smile on everyones face from the time he was 6 months old and into his walking stage. He was always so friendly, happy, loveable, and cute. Definately the happiest child I have even seen. Please cherish your memories of him always and know you have an angel watching over you. Many thoughts and prayers go out to you and your entire family during this very difficult time.

God bless

What a beautiful obituary. Please don't say Goodbye to Wyatt just yet, say until we meet again, as one day we will all join Wyatt in the Heavens above us. This is such a tragic accident, to lose Wyatt at such a young age, but be grateful for the three years you spent with him and the memories that were made. God Bless you all.
