I just heard about Gerry's passing. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and all who mourn her loss. Gerry was a lovely lady and a wonderful musician who I worked with many times at St. Francis de Sales.

Mama Schettler was a pillar in my life. She mentored me with a love, kindness, and gentleness that demonstrates God's love. I will forever remember the landmarks in my life when she stepped in and generously lifted me up with prayers and philanthropic support that can only be described as miraculous. It is because of God, and to a great extent, her faith in me, that I have become a teacher and mentor to others who need love and inspiration. In my high school classroom, I share her compassionate care and continually aspire to give in ways that resemble her powerful examples. To the Schettler family, I send my deepest condolences. I celebrate with you for the amazing things that Mrs. Schettler did in her lifetime. And I grieve with you for the loss of such a wonderful person. She was a class act of a woman with a heart of gold and a love for others. Thank you for sharing her with me. With love, Kelly

My prayers go out to the Schettler family. What a lovely lady Gerry was! I had the pleasure of dealing with her (and her “sidekick” Pete) yearly because of her piano recitals held at St. James Episcopal Church in Aston when I was the Parish Administrator there. She was so proud of her young musicians. I will remember her fondly. My thoughts are with you. 2y21f
