In Loving memory of
Chaz Isaac Schmitz
August 17, 1983 - July 5, 2015

Chaz was born a beautiful blue-eyed baby
August 17, 1983 in Tampa, Florida and
Adopted by his doting parents. He was a
Gentle child and later, grew into a kind
And respectful human being. He played
Many sports and did martial arts as a
Child. He loved music and later learned to
Play the guitar. Chaz had many different
Jobs after graduating from high school and
Always gave his best effort. He met Jami
Simmons and together they had a son,
Ethan A. Schmitz. Ethan was born on July
21, 2009 but even before then, Chaz
loved Ethan and would play the guitar for
Him before his birth. Chaz also loved to
Wake him up when he came home from
Work late in the evening to play the guitar
For him and spend time together. Chaz
Was a loving, kind and always generous
with his time. He was very much loved by
Ethan and all those who knew him.

When we embrace the many parts of our
Experience we discover a magnificent creation...
Every Moment is but a thread, a thread of
Consciousness embracing the very essence of life.
Some threads are brilliant and dazzling while
Others are tattered and torn. When looked
Upon in isolation the tattered threads look
Inferior. Yet when woven together by the
wondrous hands of the Creator, the light
magically blends with the dark. As joy coalesces
with pain, God creates the magnificent
tapestry that is life.

"Chaz was born to two people who blessed him with the gift of adoption. Then adopted by a family who taught him his work ethic, ( which couldn't be denied), his reseliency, and the sense of humor he became known for. His love of music, cooking, and art could only be surpassed by his love for his son. Chaz was a beacon of different ways to love, and forever an inspiration to me to find fun and live past the obstacles set in front of me. Loving eternally, my Lancelot"
