Bobby is a practicing Catholic as was his sister.
Schindler stated that his sister "was not dying, not attached to any type of machinery and was only being sustained by food and water via a feeding tube."

Still, Fr. Gerard Murphy of the Diocese of St. Petersburgh, Florida actually helped Judge Greer make the decision to dehydrate and starve Terri to death. Fr. Murphy did not consult with any members of Terri's family and did not even visit Terri. Murphy did however consult with Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, an assisted suicide/euthanasia activist, and testified on behalf of Michael Schiavo.

GRIM FLORIDA NEWS: Five people SHOT TO DEATH YESTERDAY MORNING. 1. Two women at their apartment (on Ulmerton Road) both Hospice of the Suncoast employees. 2. Two children of one of the women at their home by their dad who 3. drove his van over the Skyway and shot himself in the face.
People knew the man said he was going to kill his family. Why didn't he get picked up? Now there are 4 more dead, including two adorable kids a boy of 2 and a girl of 4. Dad had custody. WHY? Which Family Law Judge gave an unstable adult custody of young children? MARK SHAMES? That judge is accountable and so is DCF.
There was a Father Murphy who was RUN OVER and died. Is this that Fr. Murphy? Lynch refused to pray the Rosary for the suffering, dying Terri. He was at the rectory, was approached by a Catholic and he REFUSED. He’s a heretic.
