Terri Lynn Schaff was born in Kansas City, Missouri on August 4, 1961, the daughter of Gary and Sharon (Martin) Sylvester. She moved with her family to Iowa and received her schooling in Charles City and graduated from Clear Lake High School. She furthered her education by graduating from Hamilton Business College in Mason City.





Terri married Edward Schaff on September 29, 2007. The couple made their home in Forest City where Terri worked for Winnebago Industries for over 28 years. Her work was very important to her and you could count on her to put in a full day. She enjoyed time spent outdoors with family camping and fishing.





Terry loved doing ìhandworkî ~ crocheting and creating intricate doilies and tablecloths for family and friends. A perfect afternoon for Terri would be snuggled up on the couch with her precious cat, working on a knitting project and watching NASCAR on TV with Ed. She loved her family very much and treasured time spent with her nieces and nephews and grand-nieces.





Terri is survived by her husband Edward Schaff of Forest City; her parents, Charles & Sharon Jorgensen of Clear Lake, IA; sister June (Glenn) Myers of Webster, MN; sister-in-law Louise (Scott) Anderson of Forest City; four brothers-in-law: Frank Jr. (Paulette) Schaff; Dale (Kathleen) Schaff and Tom Schaff and fiancÈe Dawn, all of Belfield, ND and Adam (Dawn) Schaff of Inglewood, CO; an aunt, Mary Slifka of Cresco, IA and two uncles, David (Elfriede) Martin of DuPont, WA and Ronald (Judy) Sylvester of Denver, IA and several nieces and nephews.





Terri was preceded in death by her birth-father, Gary Sylvester, her grandparents, a sister Sherri Cosgriff, two brothers-in-law Michael and Roy Schaff and an aunt.
