It was with much sadness that I learned from another Maryknoll priest friend that Father Schmitt had passed away. He and Father Edwin Duffy were long time spiritual directors for the Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Homeschoolers. I remember many fond memories of all the times we met as a group and all the spiritual guidance that this wonderful priest gave us. He will be sorely missed.
Eternal rest grant unto Father Charlie O Lord, and may Your perpetual light shine about him. May he rest in peace.
