So very sorry for your loss. I met Brian in 1990 at University Hospitals where we became fast friends and coworkers for many years. I will always remember his contagious laughter and positive attitude. God´s peace be with you all at this time.

Dear Schnellinger Family,
I was very sad to hear of your loss, especially in light of the fact that Frank and I had just spent an enjoyable visit in December at the Buckeye when we just happened to go there at same time. We truly enjoyed laughing and chatting with Marge, Kay and Brian. Now that Brian is gone, I for one, am grateful that I happened to get to Norwalk that day.
Love to you all,
Pam
