I am so sorry for your loss. John Edward was a good man, and loved dearly. His life reflected his love for the Lord. His generosity & kindness to me will not be forgotten. Words cannot express how badly I feel for the entire family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
It was a privilege to call Jack a friend. He was a godly example of a servant of God. We have many great memories of special times together. Our hearts and prayers are with the Schaefer family ~ asking God to enfold you in His loving arms and carry you through these difficult days. We rejoice that Jack is with the Lord!
It will be one week early Wednesday afternoon that my husband died in front of me. There is a great void in my life and I am trusting the Lord to fill that.
