Funeral held Wednesday for Ty, Terri Schenzel - KETV Omaha
MELISSA: FIRST TONIGHT, SAYING GOODBYE TO TWO COMMUNITY LEADERS TODAY. JEREMY: THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE FILLED CHRIST COMMUNITY CHURCH FOR THE FUNERAL OF TY AND TERRI SCHENZEL. THE COUPLE WERE AMONG FOUR PEOPLE WHO DIED IN A FIERY CRASH LAST WEEK IN SOUTH DAKOTA. KETV NEWSWATCH 7'S ALEXANDRA STONE WAS AT TODAY'S SERVICE. ALEXANDRA : MANY PEOPLE FILLED THE CHURCH TODAY. AN EMOTIONAL MORNING, BUT ALSO ONE FULL OF GRATITUDE FOR THE CHANCE TO KNOW THIS COUPLE. A FAMILY AND COMMUNITY GRIEVING, BUT ALSO CELEBRATING TWO LIVES LIVED WELL. THANK YOU, LORD, FOR CREATING TY AND TERRI. ALEXANDRA: HUNDREDS FILLED CHURCH HALLS TO HONOR TY AND TERRI SCHENZEL WEDNESDAY. REMARKING ON THE COUPLES' DEVOTION TO OMAHA THROUGH THE FAITH COMMUNITY AND THROUGH THE HOPE CENTER THEY FOUNDED. ALEXANDRA: BEYOND THE IMPACT THE SCHENZELS HAD ON THE COMMUNITY, THE COUPLE LEAVES EVEN DEEPER ROOTS IN THEIR FOUR CHILDREN AND A GROWING FAMILY. I FEEL LIKE YO 'RE GOING TO WALK THROUGH THE DOOR AT ANY MINUTE. THEY TAUGHT US HOW TO LAUGH EASILY, CRY EASILY, FORGIVE QUICKLY, AND BE GRATEFUL ALWAYS. ALEXANDRA: CLIPS OF THE COUPLE, A REMINDER OF THEIR SELFLESSNESS. ALEXANDRA: ONE LASTING MESSAGE -- THIS LIFE IS LIKE A RELAY RACE. Source: www.ketv.com
