Schnabel Family,
You are in my heart and prayers everyday and for the days to come. Lynn has told me many things about her father and i've always wanted to meet him. He reminded me of mine and it brought back a lot of memories forgotten. May the memories of Edwin J. Schnabel always be remembered.

To the SchnabeFamily:

My name is Carolyn Watson and I grew up with my sister, Gloria and brothers Bob and Randy in the 700 block of Chesbrough, just down the street from Eddie. One of us occasionally sees one of the family, but I just wanted to extend the condolences of the entire Watson family to you all. We grew up in a tight little area on Chesbrough and Yondota Streets and those were what have come to be called "the good old days"! God bless and keep you all.
