Not sure what to say?

Sincerest condolences to Carol and the rest of the family. I have so many childhood memories of the Pastor in Youth activities at the church. May he rest in eternal piece, and may God help your family in this time of sorrow.

I am was very saddened to hear the news about Pastor. He was a wonderful person with a heart of gold! My dad was sick for years and pastor sat with my family for hours at the hospital. When I lost my 8yr old son in a car accident Pastor and Carol drove my husband and I 3hrs to pick up my other son in Vermont. I cannot express how thankful I was for him! I knew Pastor for a long time from confirmation classes to camp every year. He made everything so much fun and always made me smile. ...

Sorry for you lost he was a great man to have met. SPH RN

I have many great memories of Rich at confirmation camp. He will be dearly missed. Prayers of thanksgiving for his life and comfort and peace for loved ones.

Dear Carol, Kristen, Andrew, Ethan and Katielyn-

Our hearts ache for you all and for ourselves. Pastor Scheu was a great man and will be deeply and sadly missed. I am sure Pastor and Ms. Bonnie are catching up on the years that have passed and looking down upon you all with love, they will help you all get through this very difficult time.

Our thoughts and paryers are with you all.

To the Scheu Family.....Our heartfelt condolences on your loss ...Rev.Scheu was a long time customer of Jack Byrne Ford and will be sorely missed..What a great loss to the Lansingburgh Community...

Carol & Family .. I do not know where to begin .. Pastor Scheu (Rich) was an inspiration to all he came in contact with .. When we first met that day back in June 1993, I said to Scott this is truly the Pastor I want to marry us and then as our lives brought Kyle into the world .. Kyle grew to love the man Rich was in his dealing with him at Pop's .. Rich will always be a part of our memory forever .. May Pastor rest in peace, forever & ever .. Amen

Kristen and family,
My sympathies to all of you. I have wonderful memories of many conversations with Rev. Scheu. His kind words were always comforting. He had a wonderful spirit that was evident whenever he spoke. Prayers for you!

Having dealt with Pastor Scheau over the years, he was a man of enormous humor, and faith. I jokingly poked him in my columns over the years, but I had a great deal of admiration for him. I'll miss our conversations. Condolences to his family, and members of his former congregation.
