Rosemary & family,

I'm so sorry to hear about Karl. I'm sorry I did not see it until today. Your family is in my thoughts & prayers. I always loved when he showed up at bowling - such a nice man! May God give you comfort through this difficult time.

Dear Rosemary and all the Schaeffer family,
Sending much sympathy and love to all of you on the loss of your dear husband and father. I remember meeting Karl and Terry in 1974 when we all lived on 18th St. in Cuyahoga Falls. All you kids were so young then and and I had so much fun With your parents. Every Christmas I look forward to your father's Christmas booklet as I called it and I got to read up on everything going on in the family. When I did not hear from your dad last Christmas I was concerned. Now he's in heaven with your mom and all the Schaeffer family who went before him. May you all feel the comforting arms of our loving God around you during these very difficult days. Keep his memory alive with good stories that make you laugh. I know he was such a history buff and the "battlefields" Will not be the same without him. I do not live in Ohio anymore so I will not be able to be at the wake or funeral but know that I will be praying for all of you.
Love & Prayers, Bettina aka Mrs. Nugent
