Ordained in 1960
Died in 1982, at the young age of 48
Tom Schmitz.......married to Mary
After resigning from the clergy, Tom continued his apostolate as Director of Religious Education at Holy Apostles Parish, New Berlin, until his sudden death. Mary shared with me the personal traits that made him loved by all who knew him: always caring about others, a good listener, a trait so very necessary for those who live the gospel and strive to share it with others.
