The Obits
In 1997 Clara Schiavo, Michael Schiavo's mom died. Her obituary is shown below: Clara M. Schiavo Former Levittown Resident Clara M. Schiavo (nee Henkell), passed away Wednesday, July 2, 1997. For the past five years she was a resident of Seminole, Fla., living formerly for 30 years in Junewood, Levittown. She was the assistant personnel manager for the Gimble Department Store, formerly located in the Oxford Valley Mall, for ten years. She was a member of Hope Lutheran Church in Levitttown for 30 years. She was the beloved wife of William F. and the devoted mother of William F. Jr. and his wife Joan of Mayfair, Stephen O. and his wife Pamela of Fairless Hills, Brian J. and his wife Donna of Newtown, Scott E. and his wife Karen of Indiana and Michael R. and his fianc? Jodi of Fla. She was the dear grandmother of William J., Aleen C., Steven G., Kelly M., Scott R., Lisa M. Thomas M. and Ryan A. She is also survived by her sister, Joan May Enoch of Delran, NJ. Relatives and friends are invited to her viewing Mon., 10:30 a.m. until noon and to her funeral service at noon in the Campbell & Thomas Funeral Home, 905 Second St. Pike (at Old Bustleton Pike), Richboro. Her interment will take place in Sunset Memorial Park. You will see that Terri Schiavo is not mentioned in the obituary. Jodi Centonze is mentioned instead as Michael's fiancee. Michael claims his dad wrote this obituary and her knew nothing about it until later. But I do not believe Michael! I think Michael knew exactly that Terri wasn't going to be in the obituary but had his father write it up to get him off the hook. I believe it was a convert attempt by Michael to announce his engagement to Jodi to his family and friends. Michael couldn't make an official announcement since he was still legally married to Terri, so Michael used the obituary knowing it would be read by family and friends. Michael had his dad write up so Michael could deny everything. This seems quite logical when one looks at Michael's dad's obituary in 2002, 5 years later and sees that Terri is still not mentioned. Michael was the primary trustee and executor of his dad's estate and inherited over $30,000 when his dad died. The dad's obituary is shown below: Philadelphia Inquirer, The (PA) and Philadelphia Daily News (PA) - April 18, 2002 Deceased Name: William F. Schiavo Sr. PA United States SCHIAVO WILLIAM F. SCHIAVO, SR., April 15, 2002. For the past 10 years he was a resident of Seminole, FL, living formerly for 30 years in Junewood, Levittown. Engineer Associate at AT&T for 35 years and was a member of Hope Lutheran Church in Levittown for 30 years. Beloved husband of the late Clara M. Schiavo (nee Henkell), devoted father of William F. Jr. and his wife Joan of Mayfair, Stephen G. of Fairless Hills, Brian J. and his wife Donna of FL, Scott E. and wife Karen of Levittown and Michael R. and his fiancee Jodi of FL. Loving grandfather of Margaret M., William J., Aleen C., Steven G., Kelly M., Scott R., Lisa M., Thomas M. and Ryan A.; also survived by his sister Helen Hillman and brother Richard Schiavo. Relatives and friends are invited to his service Sat. April 20, at Hope Lutheran Church in Levittown, 2600 Haines Rd., cor of Haines Rd. and Millcreek Pkwy at 9 A.M. Interment Sunset Memorial Park. Philadelphia Inquirer, The (PA) and Philadelphia Daily News (PA) Date: April 18, 2002 Record Number: 298823 Copyright (c) 2002 The Philadelphia Inquirer You still see Jodi listed instead of Terri. Many have claimed that this was an oversight as the obituaries are virtually identical in structure and that is was a simple copy and paste the funeral home did. This not entirely true as one can see the obituary has been updated to reflect new information. Observe: 1997 - Stephen O. and his wife Pamela are mentioned but in 2002 Pamela is left off. Stephen's middle initial is also changed to G. 1997- Brian and his Donna lived in Newtown, but in 2002 it was changed to FL. 1997 - Scott and Karen lived in Indiana but in 2002 that had changed to Levittown. It seemed that the funeral home did go out and seek new information to update the obituary and yet Terri was never mentioned in either one. What a kind and loving husband Michael Schiavo was to mention Jodi over Terri in both obituaries. If what Michael Schiavo says is true, how come Michael didn't approach his dad on this. I don't if he did or not, but it would seem he would have been rather ****** off had his dad had mentioned Jodi over his own wife. The fact that this was never fixed leads me to believe that Michael Schiavo was not bothered one bit about Jodi being mentioned instead of Terri. If Michael didn't want to mention Terri that's fine. He could have left his name out. But to mention Jodi as his fiance over his own wife was quite disrespectful. |

Re: The Obits
Thank you James. I have copies of the obits but never paid attention to the fact that Pam and Stephen Schiavo wasn't together in April 2002. That's interesting since it was her testimony that helped seal Terri's fate. You would have thought since she claimed she was so close to Terri, that she'd still be close to Terri's brother-in-law, her husband. Goes to show in-laws can be replaced....... |
