[Fred Schneider]

For those who don't know Rich ..
Fred got to know him when he was working on an undergraduate degree at Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster PA.   He finished up at one of the fine schools in Boston and went on for an MD and residency in Boston.  I caught up with him again when he was back in private practice in Allentown in the 1980s.   He later worked at Bryn Mawr Hospital and now at Einstein in Philly.   He is one of those doctors that seems to love his work so much that every time I ask him, "When are you retiring?"  he gives me a date way off in the future.   I think his real love was the trolleys of Philadelphia and Boston and Allentown, which is a natural consequence of living there and knowing the guys there.   

His connection to Pittsburgh?   Well, his son went through the Pittsburgh Presbyterian Seminiary.   I think all those visits to see Steve made him one of us.  His many years of friendship with Bob Dietrich, the other expat Pittsburgher probably also helped.   

If the photo is reduced, which never happens when I attach something, the gray haired man in the green shirt is Rich.
