Robert and Bernice (Raymond) Schaefer. He was united in marriage to the love
of his life, Roberta “Bobbi” Waltemate, on Nov. 5, 2016, in Marshfield. Mike
drove over the road for over 40 years with various companies and started his
own company, Schaefer Transport, in 2004 and worked until May 2018.
Mike lived his life to the fullest and lived on the edge to say the least.
He loved riding his Harley’s whenever he had time. Mike also liked to sing
karaoke and was really good at it. He loved coffee and sweet apple fritters,
ice cream and zingers to name a few. He loved to make people laugh. In his
spare time Mike would watch Law and Order SVU, American Pickers, car shows,
the Last Alaskan’s and loved college football.
Survivors include his wife, Bobbi; daughters: Jessie Schaefer and Jennifer
(Chris) Dehn; stepsons: Justin (Felicia) Nielsen, Kyle (Kenzie) Doescher and
Brandon Doescher; grandchildren: Andy, Kelly, Jordan, Tyler, Jasmine and
Elianah, brothers: Richard (Gloria) Schaefer and Paul (Doug) Schaefer; and
many nieces and nephews; family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents; siblings: Jeff, Larry and Margaret;
and sister-in-law, Bonnie Schaefer.
Our heartfelt thank you to Brandon Doescher, Felicia Nielson and hospice for
all they did to help ease his pain.
