This memorial website was created in the memory of our Diddy, Mickey Schwartz.  

Diddy was a lover of Elvis, gospel music, and early morning joyrides around town.  Born and raised on Oregon Hill, he made a name for himself and knew many, visiting Delia's Kitchen and the Chuckwagon.  He was a painter by trade, and took great pride in his work as a long time employee of Lane Bros.  

Diddy was a good friend to many.  He spent the last twenty years as a resident of Chesterfield Square, where he supported others in ministry and led fun activities.  

He loved his family and was proud to be a grandpa.  We will miss his daily calls, barbeque sandwich requests, and unconditional love.  We love you, Diddy!

So sorry for your lost. Mickey was a very kind man, and a good father. He always had a smile and I don't ever remember him having a cross word with anyone. God bless his soul as he has gone home to be with his Lord, may he know that he takes the love of family and friends with him. God hold close the ones he left behind, with all the love that Mickey had to give, Rest in Peace friend.
