Rob Vanstone remembers his one in-person chat with Luke Schofield, who was only 19 when he died of cancer on Jan. 14.
It was ostensibly an interview, but the formal question-and-answer session did not commence for at least a half-hour as we casually yakked away at the Good Earth Coffeehouse’s Golden Mile location — near Dr. Martin LeBoldus Catholic High School, where he was taking Grade 12 classes.We deliver the local news you need in these turbulent times on weekdays at 3 p.m.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.
The result of it all was one story that celebrated two happy endings. Schofield departed for Green Bay in late September — not long after being declared cancer-free. Sadly, the cancer returned — in an especially aggressive fashion — not long after the story on Luke was published. Luke’s life will be honoured Saturday at the Queensbury Convention Centre in a service that is to begin at 2 p.m. Pastor Craig Moeller — himself a devotee of Luke’s beloved Packers — will be officiating.
