Not sure what to say?

Wish he knew that all his banter about the Packers being the Best must´ve stuck w/ me BC I believe Brett Favre is the Best. Ironically, he joined the Packer´s my 1st year of listening to Tom. He was a Great Packer´s Fan. Great Spanish Teacher also. He also looked very Spanish!

I know this is late, but Senor Sheffler was my Spanish Teacher in H.S@ LHS. During my time in his class, he made us look @ his mini Packers Helmet he got from a machine @ a store. I wanted a KC one like his GB 1. Got mine @ Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. Cost me like $12.99 , if I would´ve got it in my HS days, would of cost a .25. Should´ve followed Tom´s lead and got one back that far. I could nit speak Spanish as well as him, but we also share our Alum of BGSU. A few years...

Great memories of Senor in Spanish class and I even went on to major in it in college. He was our advisor for Student Council and helped us accomplish a lot. I was just thinking about him recently and his sounds like a life well lived.

Sheff was a great role model in high school and showed me what a true man was but still be that kid at heart! May eternal peace be with you. RIP my friend -Bob Herrick III Lake High school Class of `1979´

Sr. Sheffler was one of my favorite teachers in High School. Always a smile and made learning Spanish so much run... Shelly Haynes Seprodi

Senor Sheffler was my absolute favorite teacher in high school. I took 4 years of Spanish classes, all taught by him, during the late 70's. I will always remember and treasure his special contributions to me and my education.

I will be praying for Blessings & Healing, as you go through this sad, sad time! In My Most Sincere Blessings to You and Your Family! Melanie...

Senõr was such an amazing teacher! Thank you for making Spanish fun! Condolences to the family!

He was one of my favorite teachers at Lake. I struggled, during freshman Spanish I, but he made class fun and he was always so kind. I actually went back and took Spanish II my senior year, I still struggled, but I passed! Gracias Señor, tu trabajo aquí está hecho.
