Here's to celebrate a life well lived by John Scheible. He was an admirable person, great husband, dad, friend, neighbor, athlete and postal worker. My husband, Steve, met John when he started working at the post office. Through their postal careers, they worked together quite a lot; played softball, bowled, golfed (sometimes beer might have been involved). Through the years we had the pleasure of spending time with John, Susie and Josh. A few years ago we vacationed with John and Susie to see Glacier National Park, and needless to say, Susie and I laughed so much we were brought to tears many times. In February of this year John spent a week in Florida with us and we enjoyed his visit immensely. We will treasure all the memories and Josh, I can see your father making your mother and all the other angels smile and laugh. Peace be with you,

Here's to celebrate a life well lived by John. A wonderful husband, father, postal worker, athlete and great friend. My husband, Steve Wagner, met John when he started working at the post office. Through their postal careers they worked together quite a bit and were good friends. They played softball, golfed and bowled together. (sometimes beer might have been involved). Over the years our family has had the pleasure of spending time with John, Susie and Josh. About 4 years ago we went to Glacier Nat'l Park with John & Susie. Susie and I laughed so much we were brought to tears several times. We also enjoyed John this past February when he visited us in Florida for a week. Thank you John, we will cherish all the good memories. Josh, I can see him making your mom and all the other angels laugh too!
