Douglas Schmenner Obituary

SCHMENNER , Douglas On July 25, 2012, Douglas (Doug) Schmenner passed into the loving arms of Jesus after a hard-fought battle with cancer. He was employed for almost 50 years as a photographer for Northrop Grummon, where he was an active member of SEA, having served for many years as a union rep. He was a long-time member of Beechfield United Methodist Church, as well as Catonsville United Methodist Church and a volunteer and friend to patients and staff at St. Elizabeth's Rehabilitation and Nursing Home. He was preceded in death by his loving parents, Douglas and Helena Schmenner; and is survived by his sister, Marlene Schmenner Carter; three nieces, Kelly Shumate, Kimberly Jenkins, and M'Lissa Heller; as well as three great-nieces; and three great-nephews; and many dear friends. Even in death, his selflessness was evident in the donation of his body to science in the hope of helping others.

I didn't get to see my Uncle Doug nearly as often as I would have liked, but he left such an imprint on me. He was a straight-shooter, but always with a loving awareness of how others felt. He had an incredibly generous spirit, which was demonstrated by a lifetime of giving to others. Although we lived on separate coasts, Uncle Doug was more than an uncle to me - he was someone I could always talk to, knowing I could completely be myself, and he not only made me feel loved for who I am, he made me feel respected for it. I loved him very much - I hope he knew it. I miss you, Uncle Doug...
