Jeffrey Schilling Obituary

Schilling, Jeffrey A.
54, of Phoenix died on December 27, 2010. Jeff is no longer with us physically, but his spirit resides within our hearts in memories of kindness, love and caring, hallmarks of his life. Jeff has most fond memories of his much loved mother and confidante, Virginia Bruder, and his supportive stepdad, Tony. He was predeceased by his father, Robert Schilling, and brother, Ken. He holds a special place in the memory of his sister, Marlene, his brother, Jerry, and numerous nieces and nephews. We are planning to compile a book of memories of Jeff, and ask you who loved him to send your fondest memories to [email protected]. Memorial donations may be made to Crossroads Rehab Center, 7523 N. 35th Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85051. A memorial will be held for Jeff on Sunday, January 30, at 2:00 p.m. at Crossroads.

My Precious Son, Jeff,
One of my fondest memories of you is you always smiling and helping others. I can remember you always helping Jerry with his homework. I also remember you telling Grandma that you would always take care of me. You were the only one to ever tell me I was pretty when you were little.
I thank God everyday and night for giving me such wonderful and loving children.
Please know you will always be in my heart. I am happy you are with Ken and other family members.
Please know I love you and miss you.
"Love Always,"
Mom

Dear Jeff, I want to thank you and will never forget all the guidance and support you provided in helping me with the guys, after Ken died. I am thankful for the years we all had as a family creating great memories. In name you were my brother-in law, but more like a brother and most of all a friend. Though your time here was short, I am content in knowing you Ken, Grandma and Grandpa are together. I will miss you. Save me a place in the Pinochle game! Love, Sandy

My Brother Jeff, I miss you greatly. I can't believe you have gone. The last year you suffered so much but now God has taken you ending your suffering and for that I am thankful. You helped so many people in your life and that includes me. I am so proud to call you my brother. I love you and I know you'll be waiting for me when it is my time to go to the other side.

Uncle Jeff, you will always hold a special place in my heart. You gave me guidance, helped me grow as a person and were always there when I needed support. I'm grateful for the time we shared together. Although you are gone, you will never be forgotten.
