The Lord welcomed our loving Earl William Scheid into his open arms on Monday, June 15th, 2020 after his courageous health battles.
He was born February 3, 1931 in Monroeville, Ohio to William and Arineta (Bishop) Scheid.
Earl graduated from Monroeville High School ('49) and Tiffin University ('51) before being drafted by the US Army during the Korean War.
On February 11, 1961 Earl wed the love of his life, Virginia (Sue) Johnson. He was anxiously looking forward to them celebrating their 60th anniversary next year with a large party.
