These words are in your memory, Dave. My sincere condolences to David Schmidt and family. Although I never met you in person I was hired by Chittenden Murday & Novotny 15 months after your passing. I have heard so many wonderful things about you and as far as I can see, you were one of the highest magnitude. Rest in peace. You will forever be missed by a whole host of friends and family.

My sincere condolences to the Schmidt family. I worked with Dave at Peterson & Ross and haven't seen Dave in a lifetime. However, I fondly recall running a 5K with the P&R Track Team. Dave was at the finish line waving wildly and encouraging me to finish the race.

My sincere condolences to the Schmidt family. I worked with Dave for a lot of years when he was at Peterson & Ross. He was always a happy and upbeat person that was a pleasure to work with.
I remember years ago he mentioned that he was going to run for mayor. I'm so happy for him that he accomplished his goal and it sounds like he was a wonderful mayor. I haven't seen Dave in a lot of years but remember what a good person he was.
Rest in peace Dave and God bless his entire family.

To the Mayor of Park Ridge.....he made this a wonderful place to live. He showed the community what it was like to have a Mayor who definitely was "For The People". I will miss seeing him at almost every single PR function. Nobody will be able to be you but hopefully someone will be able to carry on your thoughts and wishes for the Park Ridge community.

Our deepest sympathy on your loss. David was a great mayor. All I had to do was email him about street cleaning and it was done immediately. He was friendly and kind. Park Ridge has suffered a great loss.
As always,
Warren and Jo Laufenberg

Dave did more in 57 years than most people dream of doing in a lifetime. He was a man of action. The city of Park Ridge has lost a great Mayor and we have all lost a truly wonderful friend.
