her 100th birthday June 20 in Tulsa, Okla. She has fond memories of
ACJC instructors Dean Galle, Pauline Sleeth, Edith Joyce Davis, and
Dan Stark. Following ACJC she attended Hardin College in Mexico, Mo.
and married her fiancé Lewis
Schafer of Arkansas City. Lewis worked for the U.S. Department of Agriculture

their marriage. Schafer loves music and sang with the choir while at ACJC. She
went on to sing at weddings, funerals, special events, and with her church and
other choral groups. Pictured are Schafer with friends from California and England
