Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute
Dorothy Schirmer, 82, of Lee’s Summit Missouri passed away November 9, 2017 surrounded by her loving family. She was a beloved mother, sister, grandmother, and great grandmother and will be missed dearly by all that knew her.
She lived a full life surrounded by love and passed away in the same manner. Dorothy was born in Scottsbluff, Nebraska to Carl and Julia Kramer. Dorothy worked at Mission Plastics for 25 years and retired to have more time with her family. She loved making afghans, shopping, and was also a movie buff. She was preceded in death by her former husband Allen F. Schirmer, her son Frank Schirmer, and a great granddaughter Lainey Schirmer.
She is survived by her daughter Debbie Scullen (Tim), daughter in law Dean Schirmer (Frank), 4 grandchildren Shawna Scullen, Tracy Wright (Pat), Leslie Schirmer, and Michael Schirmer (Jessie) and 6 great grandchildren.
There will be a private service to celebrate her life at the home of Tim and Debbie Scullen. Please contact the family for details.
Going to High School in Bayard, Nebraska with Dorothy was great. She taught me how to become a cheerleader, and we did cheer together. She was fun loving and had a great smile. She lived with my Husband, Charlie Reifschneider’s family for many years, Carl and Marie Reifschneider. Charlie would tell me many stories of their childhood. My condolences to the family. May She Rest In Peace.
I remember Aunt Dorothy from when I was very young. She lived with my Grandparents, Carl & Marie Reifschneider along with my dad, Charile Reifschneider and my uncles Jim and Jack Reifschneider when she was a young child. One of my favorite memories was going to visit Aunt Dorothy, Uncle Al, Frankie and Debbie in Missouri. Debbie and I and my sister Trish spent hours in her room listening to records (particularly “One” by Three Dog Night) while my brother Rod and Frankie did whatever boys did. My deepest condolences to Debbie and the rest of the family and may she rest in peace.
