Alice Mae McCaskey was born September 22, 1939 to Lloyd and Allegra (Bruflat) McCaskey at Beresford, South Dakota. She went to her heavenly home on December 26, 2014. Alice had 7 children. She later met and married Don Schroeder on January 7, 1983. They lived on a farm near Inwood for 17 years. While there, Alice was involved in ladies aid at Christ Lutheran Church at Alvord. She enjoyed helping on the farm, tending to her flowers, and spending time with family and friends. Don and Alice enjoyed trips to Branson, Missouri after harvest.

Don and Alice moved to Sioux Falls in 2000. Alice attended Our Savior’s Lutheran Church in Sioux Falls when possible. Her faith was very important to her. She enjoyed her coffee time with her close friends. She was always able to come up with a witty remark and a quick smile or jolly laugh.

Those left to cherish her memory are her husband, Don of Sioux Falls; children, Doug Pastian, Harold Pastian, Janice Sikkink, all of Sioux Falls, and Jeanne Pastian (Luis Cortes) of Baltic, South Dakota; grandchildren, Justin Anderson, Ariel Pastian, Kristina Sikkink (Dustin Kennedy), all of Sioux Falls, Vanessa, Brianna, Nathan Cortes of Baltic, Patricia Pastian of Parker, South Dakota, and Shawn Pastian of Virginia; great-grandchildren, Alexcia and Aalyce Anderson, Aubrey Sikkink and Brody Kennedy.

Alice was preceded in death by her parents; daughter, Patricia Ann; two sons, Mike and Jim; brother, Ed; and granddaughter, Nicole.

Till we meet again ... See ya
