Obituary
Melanie Schaler, 44, of Lincoln
passed away on Saturday, June 15, 2019 at Memorial
Medical Center in Springfield.
Melanie was born on July 2, 1974 in Pekin, the
daughter of Harvey and Jeanne (Onken) Boyer. She
married Joe Schaler on December 31, 2005. He
survives in Lincoln.
Melanie is also survived by her daughter, Sara
Buchanan of Nashville, TN; her brother, Michael
(Ginger) Boyer of Indianapolis, IN, and sister,
Michelle (David) Eyrse of Hartsburg. Melanie is
preceded in death by her parents, Harvey and Jeanne
Boyer.
All who knew Melanie were made well aware of her
sense of selflessness, servant heart, beautiful
smile and goofy sense of humor. She would give the
shirt off her back to anyone in need, seeing to
everyone else’s needs before her own. This continued
through her donation to Gift of Hope. |
She fiercely loved with her entire
heart. The void she will leave here on earth is
monumental but the celebration in heaven will be as
equally great.
Services for Melanie will be held at 11am on Friday,
June 21, 2019 at Lincoln Christian Church in
Lincoln, with a visitation held one hour prior to
the service (10-11am). Burial will follow the
services at Greenhill Cemetery in San Jose.
An evening visitation will take place from 3-7 p.m.
on Thursday, June 20, 2019 at
Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home in Lincoln.
In lieu of flowers and as her “final fundraiser,”
memorial donations may be made out to Joseph Schaler
to later be equally divided amongst Melanie’s
various organizations and distributed on her
birthday, July 2nd.
