Jason K. Schaefer, 42, of Andover, passed away unexpectedly on August 28, 2022. Jason was born in Syracuse, New York and graduated from New Hartford, New York High School.  He went on to earn multiple degrees from SUNY Morrisville.  Then he went to work for a number of entities in the forestry, wood products, and building materials industry.  He was currently employed at Lumber Barn in Bradford.

Jason was an avid Red Sox Fan and an ardent Buffalo Bills Fan.  He was also an enthusiastic supporter of his childrens’ athletic events. With his booming voice, you always knew he was in the crowd. The Blue Storm Lacrosse girls could certainly hear him.
Jason is survived by his wife of five years, Alicia (Williams) Schaefer; his daughter, Morgan Lea (Allison Coy), and his bonus children Madison, Chloe, and Tristan; his parents, Jim and Patty Schaefer of New Hartford, New York; sisters Kristen (Connor) Sutton of Ogdensburg, New York, and Amy (Josh) Murinka of Auburn, New York; the four nephews he loved to tease, Dempsey and Kellan Sutton and Carson and Mason Murinka; multiple aunts, uncles, and cousins; his father-in-law Steve Williams and mother-in-law Joanne Robie, both of Bristol, New Hampshire; and many good friends.

The family wishes to thank First Responders and Ed Shaughnessy at this difficult time. Calling hours and a blessing were held at the Chadwick Funeral Home in New London on September 3.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to CHaD, One Medical Center Drive HB 7070, Lebanon NH 03756, or to a fund for Morgan’s college expenses.
