My Brother, Allen Schaefer, 1928-2010

My brother, Allen Schaefer, passed quietly last night. During the past years we had shared much affection and attention. His son, Roy, was with him much in the last days. He is also survived by his daughter, Jill, and his wife of over a half century, Beryl. I will miss his humor and his poetry, but most of all his deep wisdom.
