Born on Aug. 3, 1928, in Fort Wayne, Ind., she was the daughter of Henry J. and Mary P. (Tyner) Duerstock. She attended parochial grammar school there and graduated from South Side High School in 1946. The family included two younger brothers, both of whom are her friends to this day. Jo had an unusually strong thirst for knowledge which she displayed with her lifelong passion for reading and expanding her horizons. She worked for four years after leaving high school to earn money to allow her to attend Indiana University, where she prepared to be a medical technician. The money ran out and soon she met and married Robert E. Schappel in 1954. Bob was a traveling service engineer for Foster Wheeler Corporation, and their marriage began with a two-year working honeymoon visiting seven different plant locations. Jo and Bob then moved to Oak Ridge for nine years and their two children, Kathleen and Christopher, were born there. Jo became interested in Girl Scouts when Kathy was old enough to join and soon found herself a Girl Scout leader. The next stop on their odyssey was Baltimore, Md., where Bob was employed by Westinghouse, a move that opened the door to some serious traveling. In Baltimore, Jo re-engaged with the Girl Scouts and was soon appointed a regional representative. Following four and a half years in Baltimore, the family moved to London, England, courtesy of Westinghouse. Jo volunteered with the American Girl Scouts organization and soon found herself appointed country commissioner of Great Britain and Ireland, as the military, which supported the organization in Europe, was trying to enlist civilian volunteers to broaden the scope of their activities. This volunteer job led to many trips to Germany and around Great Britain, which provided additional fringe benefits for the family. While in England, Jo soon became involved in equestrian activities because Kathy was deeply involved in pony club affairs. Upon returning to the United States, Bob elected to take a position with Westinghouse Hanford, a move that was blessed by Jo, who said, "Great, we've never lived in the Northwest before." Moving to Pasco, Wash., brought new opportunities to Jo, and she soon opened a shop called The Tack Box where she provided clothing, saddles and other horsey materials for Tri-Citians interested in English equestrian events. She sold The Tack Box in 1984, but the business continues to this day. During those years, she helped start the Columbia Hunter-Jumper Club, which sponsored springtime events for combined training riders and won the Washington State Horseman's South Central Zone "Club of The Year" award in 1977. After selling The Tack Box, Jo returned to her lifelong quest for knowledge, first by taking some courses at CBC and then enrolling in a degree program at the Tri-Cities campus of Washington State University. She completed the program and graduated cum laude in 1991 with a degree in the humanities, becoming the third Schappel to be a WSU Alumni. The first two were her children who preceded her there. Bob and Jo, now retired, then continued their program of lifelong learning which included nine elder hostels, one of which was a two-month trip to New Zealand and Australia, and two "Semesters at Sea" voyages, one being "Around the World in 100 Days" and the other a summer semester around Europe and North Africa. They also enjoyed a couple of Caribbean "Seminars at Sea." Sharing their common faith with peoples of different countries was of paramount importance on these journeys. Included in these travels were several trips for Florida family reunions, visits with their children and granddaughter, Jenny, and family genealogy trips to Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky, where Jo's family were among the earliest pioneers. She is eligible for membership in the "Daughters of The American Revolution." In between the activities, Jo and Bob found time to help the local Habitat For Humanity to get off the ground. This interest continued until Jo was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2001. She was a member of St. Patrick's Parish in Pasco, Wash., had spent several years of friendship with other members of TOPS, and belonged to the WSU Alumni Association and Phi Kappa Phi. With such a busy life, Jo managed to raise and positively influence two wonderful children and to enhance her family life with warmth and humor. She and Bob celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on Dec. 26, 2004. Her family indicated that the kind, beautiful, gentle lady had confided to them that she viewed her final illness as an answer to her prayer that she be spared the lingering death which so often accompanies Alzheimer's. The family said the Lord has been so good to them, and they are thankful for the blessings of her life shared with them. The rosary will be recited at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 18, 2005, at Mueller's Greenlee Funeral Home in Pasco, Wash. A memorial Mass will be celebrated at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 19, 2005, at St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Pasco, Wash. Services will conclude at the church. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Tri-Cities Chaplaincy Hospice House, 2108 W. Entiat Avenue, Kennewick, WA 99336. Mueller's Greenlee Funeral Home in Pasco, Wash., is in charge of the arrangements. Christopher Scott Yarborough, 37, died Tuesday, Feb. 15, 2005, in Knoxville.

Lima News, Lima, Ohio, Nov. 27, 1955

Well, i just reread that (smile) I'll tell you why I think Jasper married Dora Hill it's becasue I went to the grave site when I was in Tennessee and Dora's name is on the same stone as Jasper with her birth date, no death date. Less than a year later Dora marry's a Wm. Sharp. There is a Teresa Prosise on this line maybe she will give some insight if I'm wrong. these old eyes say its' bed time . God Bless. Phyllis

I read that and started laughing then I look at my sheet and I have Jasper married Dora Hill , I didn;t have a marriage date & then I had Joseph married to Nancy Ellen Jones,2, Sept. 1906. I'll let you know if I ever find it but Jap or Joseph had another marriage I think as I found one of them living with their siser Effie Prosise in the 1910 census ( I think). She was head of household and Samuel her other brother was also living with them I will go over everything tomorrow. Thanks a Bunch Jerry. Phyllis

See, My nerves are shot (smile) I will use the D. & I have no middle name on my sheet. I think I just told you that. Thanks a bunch, Phyllis

Jasper has no middle name on my sheets but who cares (smile ) I know where they belong. I did visit Jasper grave when I was in Tennessee and my note didn't list a middle name but with me that's no surprise. I will just leave that out or maybe it will be on a census. all I have to say is I'm so greatful just to find the 2. thanks Jerry. Phyllis

your so funny and I had to laugh. I'm also wondering why I couldn't get thing stright the more I thought the worse I got. It was so easy once I could see it was a nephew I knew it had to be two of Jaspers brother's Joseph or Elbert. I knowing Elberts g Nephew I knew it had to be Joseph and sure enough it was but not oin the family gr. sheet. I just wish I could give you all a great big hug. thanks so much, Phyllis

> >Jasper "Jap" Sevier Prosise b.June 1881 d.1956 >was a son of Benjamin Franklin Prosise and Jemima >Jane Peteres. Another point of confusion is that both the 1920 and 1930 censuses list his middle initial as D. I've looked at both images, and there seems no doubt it's really a D and not an S. I have no explanation. Jerry Bryan

>I am getting the Benj.

I'm afraid I'm going to confuse things, but sometimes the data is confusing. Both the 1920 and 1930 census show Jasper D. (Jap) Prosise married to Dora. The Anderson County marriage book (this is from a transcription) shows that Dora Hill married Joseph Prosise on 7 Jun 1911. I'm inclined to believe that there is some kind of error on the marriage book, and that Joseph who married Dora was really Jap. Indeed, Jap Prosise had a brother Joseph Prosise who married Ellen Jones on 2 Sep 1906, and it's in the marriage book correctly. Jerry Bryan
