Can't believe a year has passed without Cousin Schreck. I fondly remember staying summers at the Farm in Utica with the Handlow Family. As you know Schreck was a teaser and I -not fondly-
remember him chasing me with a black snack that he had caught. He knew I was afraid of them.
He would also give me his blueberry pie as a treat. I think of him and my Hufty Cousins often.
Warm regards to his family - Cousin Donna Hufnagel Muha

Kevin & Joanie, I'm so sorry for your loss. It's never easy but a little bit harder at the holidays. My prayers are with you and your family. Love Cousin Tommy & Cindy!

Robbie, Kevin, Lynn, Jimmy, and Beth....my deepest condolences to all of you in such a great loss of a funny, kind, sweet man, my Uncle Shreck. I have only fond and wonderful memories of times with our family and yours and Pap and Gram at the farm, Conneaut, Pap and Gram's Christmas Eve celebration every year at their house and many more. When I think of all the great times I can't help but smile! I will always remember him and Aunt Mare and his crazy turkey/geese/bird calls and calling our house to always put a certain tv show on that he wanted us to watch!! He was such a character and he will be greatly missed. I am sorry to not be there and be a part of his life celebration. Please know you will all be in my thoughts and prayers and I wish you all peace, kindness, and fond memories of your dad always....Much love, Patti Lou xoxoxo

Thanks for being my favorite Uncle and always having a seat for me to go fishing and hunting. You raised the bar high for me to treat the younger relatives as good as you treated us! You set a great example of being there for all! You are the best!

My Father was a great man and provider with excellent work ethics. He enjoyed gardening, hunting, fishing and had a fantastic sense of humor.
I learned many, many things from him, as well as my Mother. They both had a tremendous influence on my life, and for that I will be forever grateful. HE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED! ❤

Beth Ann and family, I watched your father's determination at PT many years ago as an aide. He inspired me to go back to school for exercise science focusing on the older population and people that have had strokes. Watching him achieve his goals and go beyond showed me what a tough guy he was. Your mom and sister were so dedicated to him day after day. Beth Ann you still wearing those spurs? Much love and comfort to you all.

So sorry to hear of the passing of my dear cousin Schreck. I have many fond memories of growing up with him, on Creek Road and at the Farm. He will be missed. He and Mary Ann were responsible for a lovely family. You all have my sympathy.
