To a Great Man.

I’m Joe Schindler Keith’s son. My dad was a teacher and mentor. He shaped countless lives both young and old during his many years in education. Dad and I spoke about your personal monsters and demons. We all have them and we tend to keep them hidden from public view. Demons are the ones you live with and learn to control the monsters can be all consuming. Unfortunately he battled with the monster that is depression…On October 3rd 2021 dad lost his fight. Depression became suicide. Now here we sit in the ruins of life not only myself and family but also the countless others mourning. Many of us fighting our own inner monsters because this is a grief that is all consuming.

I suppose the point I’m getting at, if there is one, it would be to take time to keep in touch with those you hold dear to your heart.

I hope to continue and carry on dad’s vision for this site and preserve this small part of his legacy and thoughts for others.

Joe.
