Jean L. Schoepke

To Mr. Schoepke, Bob, Nancy and your families. I just heard of Mrs. Schoepke's passing and I'm sorry for the belated note. My heart goes out to all of you. You all were my second family as we grew up in Waukegan. I miss you all and our family picnics and Cubs games. What a wonderful mom and lady she was, and I will always remember her fondly. Please know that the entire Ellis family is saddened by the news. May she rest in peace knowing she left a huge void and a wonderful legacy. God...

Hollis, Nancy and Bob,
We remember what a lovely, fun loving person Jean was when we lived close by and navigated the perils of high school with our sons. Lab puppies running thru their house and Hollis' advice to "have a glass of wine" when I took my dog's meds instead of my own are among our fond memories.
Our deep sympathies are with you all. Dave and Jackie Roeske

For all the love our hearts are capable of holding; that is the gift our mothers have given us. Peace to you and your family.

Lynn and I enjoyed talking with Jean and Hollis during our HLEM visits on Sunday. Jean was a sweet, loving and funny lady! The love bond between her and Hollis was obvious. Sixty one years of wonderful marriage and family memories. We should all be so blessed. Forest and Lynn Mayberry
