This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Richard Schmedake. We will remember her forever.
Although I had not seen nor spoken to Rich since my learned years, he holds a special place in my heart and I often think of him. From the age of 4 or 5, Rich gave me the gift of music. Most days of my childhood I popped over next door, and Rich would introduce The Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, The Stones, Bowie, etc. It shaped who I have become, and I am forever grateful. Cheers, John Heins
