Not sure what to say?

Mr Schoeler was my six grade teacher at Mary Woodward in 1980-1981. He was my favorite teacher. He sent me off with a good foundation for Fowler Jr High. Learned a lot from him. I remember making an African kaguya hut and going on a week long camping trip as a class. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I enjoyed working with Ron and Shirley when they coordinated the produce department at Washington County Fair. It has been fun reconnecting with them from time to time over the years. My condolences to Shirley and family.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. May God bless you in this time of sorrow. What a fine man! Love to you and your girls Shirley.

Then Ron brought his class to Joseph to take in rural life. I really got to know Ron during this time. Shirley, too. What a joy he was to be around. I...

Steve and I were so sorry to hear of Ron´s passing. I really enjoyed working with him at Mary Woodward and being exposed to his very special sense of humor. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, Shirley! Sending hugs!
