Steve Sheets is a longtime funeral director at Schoeneberger Funeral Home in Perham, MN. For the past 24 years, he and his wife, Lisa, have chaired The Giving Tree project, which works to provide Christmas gifts to area children who might otherwise not receive any. Steve and Lisa are responsible for fielding and coding requests for children in need, and the anonymous cards are used to decorate a tree at the ITOW Museum in Perham. Community members select a card, purchase the gift, and return it to the museum. Thanks to Steve, Lisa, and many generous community members, 220 children received Christmas gifts in 2018 through The Giving Tree.
