Cheryl Ann (Tobias) Schettler passed away July 18th, 1976. She married Donald Schettler and they had 4 children, Dawn Michelle, Eric Michael, Kevin Michael and Kim Michelle. She died in Ramsey County and is buried in Ft. Snelling. (Her husband was SP4 in the U.S. Army.)
I remember Cheryl to be one of the kindest persons I ever met. She always smiled and acknowledged you. We must have had a class together and met that way, as I recall she seemed to appreciate my conversations and sense of humor. I believe she worked at the Target lunch counter by Har Mar too. Have read that quite a few of you started out at Har Mar, Target or Zayre. Any of you have the privilege to work with her?
Cheryl and I grew up living just a few houses from each other. We were confirmed at Messiah Lutheran Church, attended Edgewater Junior High, and of course MVHS. We attended each others wedding and kept a wornderful friendship until her death. She was a kind and loving soul and she is forever missed
It wasEdgewood Junior High. I went there too, and have an amusing snapshot of Cheryl. We often sat at the same lunch table, and it was well known that I HATED the cafeteria food. One day I brought my lunch and was looking forward to something simple I could actually eat; probably a peanut butter sandwich or something similar. Cheryl looked at me with a twinkle in her eye and asked if I wanted to trade lunches with her. She said she had a roast beef sandwich. No fool, I promptly agreed. Truthfully, I didn't like it very much, but didn't want to be rude, so I ate a bit of it. After I had folded it away in the paper bag, she asked how I liked it. I don't recall exactly what I said, but I'm sure she could tell I didn't love it. Cheryl could barely contain her smiles as she told me it was a beef tongue sandwich. Ewwwww!!! I was queasy all day, but I'll never forget her glee at fooling me and getting a lunch I'm sure she enjoyed more than the dreaded tongue!!! She was a sweetie -- exccept for that day at lunch.
I too went to grade school, junior high and was confirmed with her. She lived a couple of blocks from me and rode the school bus with me. We were best friends back then and she is really missed. She was a lot of fun.
Gail I remember that day you and Cheryl exchanged sandwiches. I ate hot lunch and as I think back on that day I rememer it looked like roast beef and just didn't think anything else, but when Cheryl told us it was tongue I almost lost me lunch. Funny how things come back when you let your mind wander.
Barb, I can't believe you remember that day! Having someone else remember an insignificant 30 minutes in the life of an average junior high school day over 50 years ago is simply amazing. I think Cheryl would enjoy recounting the events of that day and telling everyone what a push-over I was!
I guess memorials don't have to be serious....thanks for adding to the fun of remembering Cheryl.

I always prided myself on having a sharp memory, but I can't believe some of the memories I've seen posted throughout this website, it makes me feel like I'm brain-dead in some areas. It is funny how we often remember little, insignificant things as opposed to bigger, broadly painted ones. Many of our posting classmates display remarkable memories; really impressive. It also helps me recall certain things I may have forgotten.
50-some years is forever ago, but the memories help keep them alive.

Along with Cheryl and some others, I, too, was confirmed at Messiah Lutheran Church, and also attended
Edgewood J.C. before going on to Mounds View for high school. I remember her as a reserved, nice girl.

Sorry, was it Edgewood or Edgewater j.h.s? I stand corrected whichever it is.
