Mari Schaeffer

January 1, 1753 - March 22, 2014

Mari Alexis Schaeffer, 26, of Vandalia went to be with her Lord and Savior at 7:00pm, Saturday, March 22, 2014 when she passed away at the Denver Health Medical Center in Denver, CO. She no longer lives serving Him within the confounds of the old body, but now walks free on streets of pure gold no longer in pain, and never to feel sorrow or fear again. A Celebration Ceremony will be held to honor Mari's life at 11:00am, Friday, March 28, 2014 at First Church of God in rural Vandalia.  There will be a receiving and reception time from 9:00-11:00am prior to the service at the church.  A private family burial will take place at Griffith Cemetery following the ceremonies at the church.  In lieu of flowers the family asks that memorials be made to the Church of God Illinois State Youth Ministries.  Mari Alexis Schaeffer was born on November 4, 1987 in Palm Springs, California.  She graduated from Vandalia Community High School in 2006 and finished a B.A. from Greenville College in Urban & Cross Cultural Ministry.  She was employed as an administrative assistant at New Horizons Christian Counseling in Salem, IL and was a member of the First Church of God of Vandalia. Mari is survived by her parents Jim and Cindy (Reams) Hof of Vandalia; maternal grandparents Mary Reams of Vandalia and the late John Reams; paternal grandparents John and Pat Hof of Carmel, IN; father Lex Schaeffer and wife Dyana of Palm Desert, CA; brother Luke Hohlt and wife Megan of Greenville and their children Kynley, Maybry, and Sylas; brother Zach Schaeffer and wife Megan of Bloomington-Normal and their children Mackenzie and William. She was preceded in death by her grandfather John Reams; paternal grandparents Harvey and Ruth Schaeffer.
