Kathleen A. Schmidt
Kathleen A. Schmidt, 85, of Greenville, Ohio, passed away on November
11, 2019. She was born July 24, 1934, in Patton, Pennsylvania, to Paul
and Mary (Shannon) Long. She was a 1952 graduate of Ft. Recovery High
School in Ft. Recovery, Ohio. She attained an Associates Degree in
Business Administration from Wright State University. She was
especially proud of her career with Head Start in Greenville where she
managed culinary services for many years.
She is preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Marvin
Schmidt, whom she married on December 24, 1953.The wool of her wedding
dress and his Navy uniform created sparks when they slid across the
plastic-covered car seat and kissed on that Christmas Eve. That spark
was the beginning of a lively mix of six children, one of whom, Richard
Ray Schmidt, pre-deceased her in 1975. Those remaining children to
carry on her legacy of compassion, goodness and joy include Deborah A.
Schmidt of Centerville, Ohio; Kenneth and Jeanne (Schmidt) Poeppelman
of Ft. Loramie, Ohio; Stephen C. Schmidt of Greenville, Ohio; Donald J.
