My thoughts are with the Schlifke and Callagee families at a time of great sorrow. Words can not express my feelings for two wonderful people who have crossed my life and that of so many others. They will dearly missed. I wish I could have spent a few more moments of time with them.

Dearest Mother,

To you I tip my hat. Your faith in God gave you the strength to come to his calling. May you and Dad share as many beautiful memories together in heaven as you did on the face of this earth. I will love you forever and your memory will live on through all of us.

Your daughter - Lynn

Ann,

I was so sorry to hear the news today - how hard it is for you all to lose mum so close to the loss of your dad. I have the most marvellous memories of all of you. Can you remember when we came to visit you whilst you were on vacation at Letchworth Park - your mother cooked for an army & they both went out of their way to make my family so welcome - it was a great day! My daughter & I often talk about it - your mum introduced her to the art of toasting marshmallows!!

Your parents were good friends to my sister Clare & to Coby & I know they will miss their friendship but treasure the memories as will I.



Our thoughts & love are with you

Dear Ann & Family

I was shocked to read that your mother passed away so soon after your father. She was such a wonderfull person to me and my children. She must be very happy now with the Lord who will take care of her now.

To Ann and the rest of the Schlifke Family,



How sincerely sorry I am over the loss of your Mom. I found out at work last Sunday, and understand the extreme pain you are in. Knowing that your Dad recently died hurts even more, but it is reassuring that both are together in Heaven. With deepest sympathy,
