JANET SCHEFFLER Obituary

JANET ROCHALLE SCHEFFLER Janet Rochalle Scheffler went to Heaven on Monday, May 29th. She could comfort an upset grandchild in an instant, dish out motherly advice with a look, and kept Dad on his toes for 45 years. Janet was born October 28, 1956 and had quite the list of accomplishments during her 66 years of life. She attended Hutchinson Community College where she earned her associate degree and became a Registered Nurse working at Bethel Hospital, Newton Medical Center, Asbury, and Kidron Bethel before retiring. But it was meeting a cute Dillions meat cutter named Mark while she was in nursing school that forever changed her life and that earned her many titles including: Loving Wife, Amazing Mother to Six Girls, Super Grandmother of 17, and Supportive Friend. Mom loved the family trips to Colorado, Sunday family dinners on the farm with grandkids, and her long drives looking for deer with Dad. Mom's hands made us matching homemade Christmas outfits, baptismal gowns for her grandchildren from her very own wedding dress, and food for more than 30 immediate family members that brought us all together. Her hands held us... and Dad's heart. Mom leaves behind all of us. Her loving family includes husband Mark, daughters Melissa (husband Rob Hoyle), Michelle (husband Billy Lown), Marcie (husband Keith Schaller), Margo (husband Colton Hege), Marie (husband Tyler Brenneman), and Martha (husband Austin Willis). And, her grandchildren include: Audrey, Conrad, Hunter, Landry, Harper, Charlotte, Lucas, Easton, Ireland, Clayton, Gordon, Hailie, Kennadi, Lauren, Morgan, Crew, and Finley. Forever our Mom and Dad's "Jannie." She was perfect. We love her. Rosary will be held Thursday, June 1, 2023, 6;30 p.m. at St. Mary's Catholic Church. Mass of Christian Burial will be held Friday, June 2, 2023, 10:30 a.m. at St. Mary's Catholic Church with Father Andrew Bergkamp officiating. Family suggests memorials to St. Mary's Catholic Church and may be sent to Broadway Colonial Funeral Home, 120 E. Broadway, Newton, Kansas 67114. On-line condolences may be left at www.broadwaycolonialfh.com

I am so sad to read of your passing, Janet. To your family, I offer my condolences and remembrances of our family connections through these many years. To you I offer you my prayers for the repose of your soul and that you find rest and healing in your new home while you await our return as well. Mark, I know only too well of the the loss this represents for you and know you and yours will also continue to be in my prayers as they have been all these years, that you may be blessed with extra measures of grace for coping during your difficult times. Keep your focus on the connections that will never be broken with loved ones whether on this side the grave or the other. Janet is in an even better place for helping you return home in your time and in the mean time, for managing here. That has not changed for you or your loved ones. May each be blessed in the measure of needed grace these days. You are loved.

Words are never enough to take away the loss if someone so important in our lives. They can only let you know that you are cared for and loved by others. As you ask questions that have no answers, we are here to listen and hug you or offer you space and help in whatever way you need. So sorry for your loss.
