These belong together

These two obituaries belong together. The first is for my sister-in-law, Dorothy Jean (Lucot) Scheider who died on July 29, 2016. She had been mom to me for nearly fifty years. The second is her husband, and my brother, Paul Michael "Mick" Scheider, who passed on January 11, 2019. Mick penned the words to both of these.

Dorothy J. Scheider, age 70, of North Fayette, formerly of Sheraden, peacefully on Friday, July 29, 2016. Beloved wife of Paul "Mick" M. Scheider for over 51 years; daughter of the late John A. and Dorothy L. (Marshall) Lucot; mother of Amy L. (Regis) Schultz and Michael P. (Kathleen) Scheider; grandmother of Kayla, Madelyn, Logan, Liam and granddog, Onyx; sister of John "Jack" (Claire) Lucot and family; sister-in-law of Carl L. (Judy) Scheider and family and Steven J. (Wendy) Scheider and family; and niece, Jennifer. Lifelong best friend of Maureen McMahon. She was devoted to her family and loved all her grandchildren! All she ever wanted was "fluff". She would like to thank all her friends and family for being part of her life. Services and interment were held privately for the family. Dorothy is "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" clicking her red shoes! Arrangements entrusted to ANTHONY G. STAAB FUNERAL HOME, INC.

I want to announce that I have decided to take a long vacation! It began on Friday, January 11, 2019, at the age of 75. The most beautiful person - Dorth - left this world before me! I miss her every day! I said to her and still say to her every night "goodnight Dorth, I love you and I'll see you in the morning." To our children Amy (Rege) and Michael (Kathy) and grandchildren Kayla, Maddy, Logan and Liam you know we love you all and thank you for loving us back! We were blessed with and proud of our children and grandchildren. They are so beautiful and have grown into fine young adults. I want to thank my brothers Carl (Judy) and Steve (Wendy) and their families for putting up with my funny ways. To all of our friends and relatives thank you for being so good and thoughtful to Dorth and Me! All me and Dorth ever wanted was a couple of fine children and a wonderful life together and we enjoyed both. My wife Dorth said there is going to be a special screening of the Wizard of Oz at her beachfront condo, so I've decided to go. If anyone asks I'm on a long vacation. Always remember we are only renting this place, so you better enjoy yourself while you're here. In lieu of flowers please take your family out to dinner and give them a hug and tell them you love them! "I could've missed the pain, but I'd of had to miss the dance." As per Mick's wishes there are no visitations. Services were held privately for the family. Arrangements entrusted to ANTHONY G. STAAB FUNERAL HOME, INC.

I miss them both dearly.
