Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. Rita, Mark, Alan, Rod and Family,
    Frank was a wonderful, kind, funny and loving man. When I was ill years ago, he and my sister made room for me at their home for a time. I have never forgotten that act of love and the times we shared.
    I know he will be there in the quiet, when we remember the good times we all shared with him.
    He left so many wonderful things to remember him by. I hope these memories bring you some comfort.

  2. Scheer family,

    So sorry to hear of Frank’s passing. He was such a fun guy to be around during our co-ed softball and partying days. Gone too soon. May his soul rest in peace. Hugs and prayers to the entire family. Deepest sympathy.

  3. Prayers and hugs to all the Scheer family…. We are thinking of you and
    Sending our condolences….
    Hold those memories close… he will always be with you.
    May he rest in peace🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
    The Littell family

  4. Frank was the guy you always wanted to be friends with. You need not ask him for his friendship, he gave it to you. I had the honor to partner with him at Cherry Oaks Men’s Club several times. He was so much fun, the score didn’t matter.
    Frank set the example of what friends really are. You will be missed by many.

  5. To the Scheer family,

    I am sad hearing of the loss of Steve. I have many, many fond memories of him. I will always remember how athletic he was in high school. I remember hanging with him when he hurt his knee and the rest of the family was at the high school for a game. I also had the privilege of visiting with him multiple times while working at Boeing. I was saddened when I learned he became ill and was placed in the Cheney Golden Age home. As part of my job I was able to visit Steve in the Residential Board and Care where he lived. He was a super guy, very kind and a really good friend. He will be missed by all who knew and grew up with him. You All are in my thoughts and prayers.
