Some of my greatest childhood memories included my grandma. Little things I did't give much thought to at the time are now cherished. She was always cooking something on the stove, mending someones clothes and feeding the cats. Her hugs were soft and squishy-as a kid her hugs were the best! With so many grandchildren she never made me feel like "just another grandkid" -each of us were special to her. I will miss her greatly. I love you grandma!

I miss my mother each and every day. She is with me always - in my heart, in my mind. What a special, sweet, soul she was and always will be. May GOD bless her and keep her in his loving arms.

Like Jennifer, I remember the warm, soft hugs that were just part of the wonderful person that my Grandma was. Every time I feel like not going to class, or not cleaning my apartment, I think of Grandma and how she believed in hard work and in education and it helps push me to succeed. She was quite possibly the strongest woman I've ever known and her strength is passed down to me through my mother and will be passed on to my children through me. She will be sorely missed and I know that she is now finally at peace and looks down on all of those whose lives she's touched.

I also was in Mrs. Shoultheis' fourth grade class at Morgan and a friend of her daughter, Linda. She was a wonderful teacher and more importantly a wonderful person. I regret the times in recent years when I passed by her house and thought of her, but didn't stop to say hello. Linda, I will pray for you and your family.

Grandma had the best warm, soft hugs, and I have only fond memories walking into the house just to visit. She would always give a smile, even in the later years when she had no words to give. I'm proud to have learned from her how to embroider and use a sewing machine. I remember watching her skillfully quilt, basket weave, and paint. Her hands did so much during her life, and so did her ability to teach kids, and it's obvious from her offspring she dedicated her heart to being a good mother, loving her family. I will miss her and hope to see her again in the life that is to come.

I couldn't have asked for a more perfect mother-in-law. She had a way of nurturing and loving those around her that was subtle but profoundly felt. Her smile and laughter was infectious. I will always be grateful that she was my mother-in-law.

Mrs. Shoultheis was my fouth grade teacher at Hunter Elementary in Franklin Ohio. She has always been my favorite teacher. I can remember the letters she would read to the class from her son in the service. She was a wonderful lady that touched a lot of lives. May God bless your family as you go through this diifcult time.

I was a student of Mrs. Schoultheis and only remember good things about her. Your family was kind enough to let the whole class come to your home to see how A.C. Shiners where made. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

She was/is the most giving and caring person I have ever met(outside of my mother). She taught many of us from beyond the classroom. My thoughts and prayers go to all of her family.
