Not sure what to say?

Mr. Sheaffer was a memorable and inspiring teacher. He and my father, also a teacher at Heritage Elementary, were good friends so we saw him outside of the classroom as well. I am truly happy that he appears to have lived a long, happy and rewarding life well-deserved. My deepest condolences to his family, I will remember him fondly.

My most sincere sympathies to his family.
Mr. Shaffer was my 4th grade teacher at Heritage Elementary school in the early ‘70s. I have so many memories, including watching for him to drive past my home in Heritage Park, in his yellow Jeep on his way to & from school!! I struggled terribly with long division. But he was always patient & helped me master it!!
I’m certain he will be deeply missed. I’ll send up prayers for comfort and strength in the difficult times ahead. God bless...

I'm sure the closing of club in 2020 after being open and active since 1960 broke his heart but gave him a lot of great memories. There are...
