Mr. Schramm, Bobby, Patty & Carol,

I just recently found out that your mom had passed away. I am so very sorry for your loss, because it is also mine. At this point in my life, I have to let others know how loving & caring both your mother & father were to me. They gave me a job, and a trade to fall back on. They treated me with such kindness that I will never forget my early years in McKees Rocks. I will always remember the fishing trips, the old newspaper archives, and the layout, paste up and delivery with Frank, Jimmy and Ann. And even though I grew up in a poor home without a father, you ALL treated me like I belonged. Like I was a part of your family. I Thank You all so very much for your kindness and I know that I was only one of many rudderless youths that your family helped. I too will miss Mrs. Schramm. She was so strong for her stature. A little Itailian woman who was not afraid of anything! She managed a business better than most men that I've met in life. And yet was so very kind to those below her. She corrected me when I was wrong & praised me when I deserved it, but I know now that being corrected was the one thing that was missing in my life - discipline. I so admire that fact that she never gave up. That in particular is an enormous inspiration for me - even today. And so I know that your grief must be great right now, because my heart is so very heavy as well. I would like all of you to know that my life was CHANGED - probably SAVED - by your kindness to me as a delinquent youth. Without your mom & dad I would have either been dead or in jail, at a very early age. YOU ALL changed that for me by showing me that I did have a future, and that all I had to do was embrace it. I think of you all often, and THANK YOU for the incredible kindness that I know I did not deserve. Mr. & Mrs. Shramm, I owe you a debt of gratitude, that I know can never be repaid! You probably do not know it, but you saved my life, and I will always remember the incredible kindness that you showed me. Denny S.
