Brian Thomas Schaffer, 1966 to 2014. Brian once said, "I think I am a very good person who makes bad decisions." That describes him. He was a wonderful son, brother, and uncle. Brian was an avid fisherman and outdoor person who enjoyed nature to the fullest. He was a prolific writer and had a great ability to make dynamic speeches. As a painter and remodeler by profession, he was always willing to help anyone with their home projects. Brian's creative talents were used to make personalized wind chimes. After years of struggling with his addiction, he is now at peace with the Lord. He is survived by his parents, Marilyn and Jerry Schaffer; and brothers Paul (Davnet), John (Anita), and Brad (Jacquie). Brian had a wonderful knack of working with children and his nieces and nephews, Una, Roan, Aiden, Max, Alex, Jeremy and Julia Bea, adored him. They will miss the fun times they had with "Uncle Brian". There will be a private memorial service at a later date. If you wish to remember Brian, you can donate to the Ed Keating Center P.O. Box 770108, Lakewood, Ohio 44107 or any drug rehab facility of your choice
