Linda Louise Shafer, Westminster High School class of 1971, July 24, 1953 - June 27, 2017



Sadly, our Westminster High School class of 1971 classmate, Linda Louise Shafer, passed away on June 27, 2017.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family, colleagues, loved-ones and friends. She will be missed.

Linda Louise Shafer of Silver Spring, MD, formerly of Westminster, MD, passed away peacefully on June 27, 2017, after a long illness.

She was born on July 24, 1953, to Lindsay and Louise Shafer of Westminster, MD. After graduating from Westminster High School in 1971, Linda attended West Virginia Wesleyan College, where she obtained a Bachelor's Degree in 1975. She received a Master of Divinity in 1979 from the Union Theological Seminary in New York and, later, a Ph.D. in Sociology in 1994 from American University in Washington, DC.

She served as Deacon, Elder, Associate Pastor, and Pastor in the United Methodist Church, Baltimore-Washington Conference, from 1979 to 1989.

From 1989 to 2011, Linda was engaged in research project leadership, review, and analysis in the fields of education, health, and human services, most recently with the American Institutes for Research.

Linda had a strong calling to serve others, but her greatest joy and commitment was to her son, Arkee. She was also a very generous, loyal, and supportive friend. Linda's favorite pastimes included cake decorating, knitting, reading, and singing in her church choir.

In addition to Arkee, Linda is survived by her brother Larry and his wife Pamela Shafer of Westminster, MD, her brother Lee and his wife Donna Shafer of Big Piney, WY, and eight nieces and nephews.

A memorial service to celebrate Linda's life will be held at the Takoma Park Presbyterian Church at 2:00 p.m., Sunday, July 16, 2017. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Linda's name to the Takoma Park Presbyterian Church, 310 Tulip Avenue, Takoma Park, MD 20912.

Westminster Md. Sr. High School Class of 1971 classmate Melvin Warren Heartley, Sr., 63

Dru Ann Boyd Click and I have been messaging back and forth, and we have bad news for our classmates at Westminster High School – especially the class of 1971. Melvin Warren Heartley, Sr., 63, of Falling Waters, passed away on Wednesday, March 29, 2017 at Berkeley Medical Center.

The obituary does not have a picture of Mel. Let me grab one from the yearbook….


Obituary for Melvin Heartley Sr.

Melvin Warren Heartley, Sr., 63, of Falling Waters, passed away on Wednesday, March 29, 2017 at Berkeley Medical Center.

Born Dec 6, 1953, in Riverdown, MD, he was the son of the late Fred Howell Heartley and Grace Elizabeth Smith Heartley.

He was a construction supervisor for Dan Ryan Builders.

He is survived by his wife, Darlene M. Heartley; his children, Melvin W.

+++++++++++++++++++

According to Dru Ann Click, who attended the funeral, “Just got back from WV and the most unusual funeral ever - all Pink Floyd Songs. Total service was 10 min. Sang ‘Wish u were here’ at grave side. Family all had on Pink Floyd T shirts.”

You know that sounds like our class. Just saying….

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

(Chaplain Kevin Dayhoff) The Westminster High School Class of 1971 extends our sympathy and condolences to the friends, family and loved-ones of our classmate Mel. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this very difficult time.

Those we love don't go away. They walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear.

May memories of happy times sustain us, the support of family and friends comfort us, and may God's love embrace you and your family and bring you peace.

Praying for you and your family. So sorry for loss. You and the family are in our prayers. We are all singing:



Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.

Wish you were here.

The sister, Sidney Ann Sweet, of our Westminster High School class of 1971 classmate Leonard Roberts, has died.


The sister, Sidney Ann Sweet, of our Westminster High School class of 1971 classmate Leonard Roberts, has died.

Sidney Ann Sweet, 58, of Westminster, died June 22, 2015 at Golden Living Center.

She was the brother of our dear friend and Westminster High School class of 1971 classmate, Leonard Roberts.

On behalf of the Westminster High School Class of 1971, our thoughts and prayers are with the Leonard Roberts family at this difficult time.

Scarlet and Leonard May God keep you close at this time. Our class understands the emptiness that overshadows siblings when death comes and grief lingers. Yet, death cannot separate you from a lifetime of love and shared memories. These gifts remain as God's loving touches of His grace. Though we cannot be with you physically, we will continually lift you in prayer as often as we think about you and your beloved sister.

May God keep open the "eyes of your heart" to remind you of his constant presence to comfort and guide you, to love and keep you, and grant you overcoming peace. In Loving memory.

For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer. Romans 13 v4
