Mrs. Schaefer and Andy, I was so saddened to read of Mr. Schaefer's death. I can only imagine the reunion he had with my mom and dad - the hugging, the laughing, the joy of being reunited with a good friend. I will be thinking of you and smiling when I think of Mr. Schaefer's really bad "dad jokes" and his accompanying chuckle. Mary Ann Lacek Colasacco

Our deepest sympathies to Dorothy, Tony, and the entire family. We were so lucky to be their neighbors and part of their beloved Northwoods circle for 20 years. Jerry and Dorothy hosted many epic gatherings and were very important to, and beloved by, the Mercer Lake community. May happy memories soon replace your sorrow.
