And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. We will see you again some day, in a heavenly place where there is no parting. A place where there are no words that mean good-bye."

There are so many wonderful memories over his nine years and we saw him grow and develop We watched him over the last year fight with such courage and hope and we watched the love that you Sharon, Jim and Addie gave to him in his struggle to beat this awful cancer. We watched him suffer in these last few weeks and know that he is now in a better place but we will miss him so very much. JR was an open and loving boy with a hint of mischef,a sense of humor and oh so much potential that has now been lost. We are proud of JR and his life and proud of the strength of the family he has left behind. We love you all so very much!! Grandpa Don & Nana Barbara

I am sorry about what happened to JR Schoen. I could not understand how a kind child could have passed away in such form. I only wish the family the best and to remember that now JR is in a better place. He is in heaven and will be looking out for his family. I could only wish the family the best and that one day they shall be reunited with JR in a better place.

Dear Sharon, Jim And Addie, We have such wonderful memories of JR, our wonderful grandson. The fact that he was such a perfect little guy makes his loss so much more painful. There are so many wonderful memories over his nine years and we saw him grow and develop We watched him over the last year fight with such courage and hope and we watched the love that you Sharon, Jim and Addie gave to him in his struggle to beat this awful cancer. We watched him suffer in these last few weeks and know that he is now in a better place but we will miss him so very much. JR was an open and loving boy with a hint of mischef,a sense of humor and oh so much potential that has now been lost. We are proud of JR and his life and proud of the strength of the family he has left behind. We love you all so very much!! Grandpa Don & Nana Barbara

Sharon, Jim and Addie: My heart weeps at your unfathomable loss. But I think of JR as the luckiest boy in the world to have had you, Sharon, as his mother, Jim as his father, and Addie as his sister. I think of him as living always in the sweet and gentle world that is the essence of childhood. We adults lose that pure and singular spirit; JR will possess it forever. With deepest sympathy, Jill, Joe & Ned Cooper

Sharon, Jimmy and Addie, Our deapest condolances to all of you and your extended families. We were on Martha's Vineyard when we heard the sad news. We heard he like to skim rocks in the water. So we skimmed a couple for him and said a prayer. We can't imagine what the last few months have been for you. JR was a great kid! He was a joy to have around. I know that he is in heaven now looking over you and hoping you find peace knowing that he loved you as much as you loved him.

Dear Sharon, Jim, and Addie, We are so truly sorry for your unfathomable loss. The J. R. that I will always remember, eagerly chased, happily played, and joyfully laughed with Nicholas almost everyday, even in those freezing winter months, at the end of The Holly Pond 4's school day. J.R. never tired of Nicholas's enthusiasm and relentless requests for more chasing and playing! His genuine spirit was just one of his many fine attributes. How fortunate for us, that he touched our lives. All our love, Jennifer, Alex, and Nicholas Giotis
