As someone who was an eyewitness of the quality of the character of Bob Schindler in what had to be the darkest hours of his life, I can tell you that this was a man who steadily exhibited the precious fruit of God's Holy Spirit.
As his precious daughter was being slowly murdered; dehydrated to death by judicial decree; in the midst of his incredible suffering, he took the time every single day to minister to others. And not just his dear family, either. He gave of himself in ways I will never forget to complete strangers who had gathered from all over this land.
My prayers go heavenward for his wife, his son, and his remaining daughter, along with all who loved him, and were loved by him.
Heaven's gain, our great loss. At least for now, until the Day of the LORD arrives and we who have believed are all gathered together into His glorious Presence, to be with Him forever.

Dear Lord, I ask you to comfort Mrs. Schindler with YOUR peace that defies human understanding. Thank you for answering my prayer and blessing her in ways that will be above and beyond anything she can think or ask. In Jesus Name, I pray.

Your posts thoughout are so right on.
We can do things to honor their deaths.
We can start/continue to do the right things instead of the easiest.
We can start/continue talk to others about the right things, instead of being silent.
We can start/continue to speak out and hold our leaders accountable, instead of being afraid.
To truly honor these people and others like them....we need to see them as beacons of light, showing us the way to truth
...and help to save our Country in the process.

Granted that Bob was never quite the same but neither were we or this nation.
Pennsylvania freepers for Terri may want to attend Mr. Schindler's service.

God Bless him. A good man, a good father.

The Schindlers are such an extraordinary family. I don’t think Mr. Schindler will have to wait very long, if at all, to see his beautiful daughter, Terri. God love you, Mr. Schindler ... God love you, Terri. My prayers are with you both. And I’m praying for your family as well.

Lord, please receive your faithful servant with welcoming arms. May Terri and her father’s reunion be nothing but joy. And please comfort the remaining family members - the journey here has been hell for them - we pray for continued strength and grace for them. In Christ’s name...

Very sad that this dear man no longer walks this earth. My prayers have never stopped for Terri and for her family. They continue for the repose of the souls of Terri and Bob, and for their family to find comfort and solace through their abiding faith.

I certainly pray for the Schindler famiy, they really showed us what ‘family’ means. May they find comfort in knowing their husband/father is in the arms of his Lord and reunited with his beloved daughter.
