Not sure what to say?

I loved him, bless him. Known him and had been his patient on and off since I was 17 years old and the only reason it'd b off was because I moved a few times out of state. In fact I was looking online to see if maybe he was now doing or able to do online sessions and I see he has passed onto whatever his next journey will be. I'm sad to hear this, I feel like a huge part of my childhood has also passed away. Bless his soul and my sincerest sympathies to his family his children. Sara Church...

Dr Shonfeld was my wife´s therapist for over 10 years. After moving out of the area we loss touch with this amazing man. But we will never forget his compassion and care he showed with his work. So saddened to see his passing. I know his family still feels their great loss. Thank you for sharing him with us, we´ll never forget him and the help he gave us.

Dr. Shonfeld was my therapist during some very difficult times. He brought joy back into my life and for this I am eternally grateful. I will never forget all he did for me. My condolences to his family--I too will miss him very much.

Gail, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Burt. He was a close colleague and friend of my father and an old family friend. He will be missed.

Susan and I send you our deepest sympathies to you and the girls. You guys were great neighbors many years ago and Burt was particularly helpful to Susan and she worked through the death of our son Bascom.

Bill and I were saddened to hear the news of Burt's passing. He was such an upbeat person, understanding the importance of connecting to people with humor and good will. It was fun to watch Burt play tennis, coaching his daughters or just playing with friends. I feel very fortunate to have had the chance to share a meal at Open City with him a few months ago. He was very solicitous of my brother who was also diagnosed with stomach cancer and offered to put me in touch with his doctors....

Vicki, Alexis and I wish to honor the memory of Burt Schonfeld, whom we knew as a valued neighbor and a fellow dog lover. The Schonfeld family's care for their house on Linnean Avenue has done credit to our street and to our friends the architects, Heather Cass and Patrick Pinnell.

Your husband/father meant so much to me over the past 10 years. He saved my life and for that I will be eternally grateful. He was an extraordinary man.
