He left his mark on Inverness, the moon

Vincent Scheer Sr., a former Inverness City Council member and president, died Tuesday (Feb. 10, 2004) at his Inverness home. He was 91.

Mr. Scheer came to Inverness in 1980 from Orange City, Fla. He retired after 30 years of working for Grumman Aircraft. His name, along with the names of other crew members who built a lunar exploration module, are on a plaque that was left on the moon.

Mr. Scheer served on the City Council from 1983 to 1995, including a stint as council president in 1991-92. He lost his bid for a fifth term in 1995.

"I certainly had the utmost respect for him," said Marilyn Jordan, the recently retired city clerk who was in office during Mr. Scheer's council tenure. "He was a very conservative councilman and cared very deeply about the city."

Jordan recalled being concerned one hot day when Mr. Scheer insisted on placing flags at all veterans' graves in a city cemetery. "He was dedicated," she said.

Mr. Scheer belonged to Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, Inverness, and the Third Degree Knights of Columbus Cou

Specifically, Scheer says Pete Kelly encouraged two other men to run against him in the City Council election. One of those men, Jim Herringshaw, took 45.9 percent of the vote Tuesday and will face Scheer in a runoff March 14; the other, David Mills, managed to collect only 9 percent of the ballots cast and now is out of the race.

Scheer noted that he and Kelly have disagreed many times over the years and that Kelly wants someone on the council who agrees with him.

"They want me off that council very bad, and they figure this would be the way to do it," Scheer said. "He wants people who will say yes to his wishes. This I have never done."

Scheer went on to say: "It was him (Herringshaw) and Mills that Kelly put in because they both work for him."

Mills and Herringshaw have volunteered with
