Dear Gick,
Stephen was an encourager and healing friend. God's peace and strength be with you.
Lee and Terri Rosenthal

Gick and family, I just found out about Stephen's death. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a tremendous teacher in my life and a huge influence. I have always been grateful for all he did for me at Mundelein.

Dr. Schmidt both baptized me and performed my wedding ceremony nearly 23 years later. He sang to my grandma in her final hours, giving her comfort. Our deepest sympathies to the Schmidt family (who we will always think of as family) at the loss of such an amazing man, who was way ahead of his time.

I am truly saddened by Stephen's passing. He was a marvelous professor who helped shaped my theology. Prayers and blessings to his family.

Gick and family,
Again my sympathies. Steve was a good friend and I can't tell you how much I appreciate his life and his friendship to my mom and my family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all...

Dear Deb and family, I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers are with you

Dear Gick...Jo and I join your family and loved ones as you deal with this great loss and, at the same time, great celebration of this unbelievably loving, challenging, passionate and very-much-alive man. You have been an inspiration to us and we treasure our relationship, our rich shared memories and look forward to those to come. His peace, our love, Chuck and Jo
