My Pa was my biggest fan and the first man to steal my heart. Rest in peace Pa. You are always in my heart. By the time we meet again maybe you will have taught that pony Rosa some manners.
James C. Scheler was an amazing man whom I was lucky to call my Grandpa, since I was a little girl I can remember him telling me stories about his horses and every once and awhile I would get pictures of the horses and the farm. We both shared a love for reading and would talk about the newest book we were reading and what the book was about, when I was roughly 12 years old my grandpa began sending me National Geographic magazines, Harry Potter books and Dear Diary books just to mention a few and he would always ask me what I thought of them and what I had already read so far, its one thing I will miss the most and that I cherished the most because it was our love for reading that bonded us together as granddaughter and grandfather. Ill miss hearing his voice and reading the Christmas and Birthday cards he would personalize with Feliz Navidad and Feliz Cumpleanos because of my families Hispanic heritage and always signed it with love Grandpa Jim. I love you and miss you grandpa, may you rest in eternal peace. Your Granddaughter Jenifer
My PA adopted me and took me in as his own I remember the day we went to the judge and he legally became my dad it was the best day ever in my life. I remember the time my parents were away and I thought It would be fun to ride my horse through the house like they did on tv it was all going good till the stirrup got stuck on the door handle and I pulled it of the hinges I swore I didn’t know what happened but the figured it out when they saw the hoof prints in the carpet lol I never did admit to it but always got the “Like the time you rode the horse through the house” I love my PA and I will miss him but he did live a good long life I know he is up in heaven with my mom looking down on us and now I have to angels in heaven.

I'm grateful for the times we shared and the love I felt always. Goodbye 🫂
