Margaret Frances Schafer, 97, of Gilbert, Arizona, passed away on July 20, 2015.
You will be missed Grandma. She was a caring individual that was happy as long as you were happy, whenever I was with her she would speak of her love for her children and husband.
I moved to AZ 5 years ago and I am happy I got to spend time with her and get to know her and that she got to see her great grand daughters and they got to meet her.
Kitty Grandma was a beautiful loving grandmother. She was a ray of sunshine everywhere she went. She was always happy and her happiness rubbed off on each and everyone of us. I was blessed to have her as my grandmother and proud to have been her grandson. I hold so many fond memories of her. I have been spending the past few days just reminiscing, watching home movies and looking at photographs. I thank God that I was given the opportunity to have her in my life. Life will never be the same without her. But knowing she went to be with the Lord and reunited with those that have gone before her is of great comfort. Though I miss and grieve for her, I know someday we will live together forever in peace.
