In memory of a dear friend and grandfather-in-law. We loved you very much.  Robert E. "Bob" Schmidt,
We will keep you close always. From a letter August 28th, 2015: Dear, dear Bob, I am so sad to hear of Pat's passing, but I know she is at peace now, and watching over you with all her love. "Sweetest dreams," as our Andrew wished her. I want you to know that I look up to your great, lifelong love affair with your beautiful bride. Your deep love and respect for one another will always be an inspiration to us, and a torch Andrew and I will carry with us all our lives. The world needs more love, doesn't it? There is a beautiful poem by Rumi that I find comfort in. I hope now it can bring you some measure of comfort as well. "Now that you live in my chest, anywhere we sit is a mountaintop. What used to be pain is a lovely bench, where we can rest under the roses." -Rumi Sweetest dreams, dear lovely man. |
