Dear Marti
Even though I never met your Dad, from the other comments left here in the guest book and from knowing you his daughter, he must have been a very special person and someone I would have liked to have met. This time I'm going to let silence speak for my heart. My prayers as before are in the form of good thoughts for you and your family.
Mary joins me in sending our deepest regrets for your loss.

To the Schillmoeller Family - I am very saddened to hear of Ed's passing. I only met him once, but we had a very nice and lengthy conversation. He was very proud of his ISU degree and very generous in his support of ISU. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
