Allen William Schmidt

We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Gunderson Funeral Home - Madison

Allen was a kind and thoughtful man, very interested in the world around him, as well as in spiritual matters. He was always a joy to talk with and a light to others. Vaya con Dios, Allen. You are missed by many! Tara

Dear Caryn and family, Although we crossed paths only intermittently over the past four years, we feel honored to have spent time with you and Allen. Allen was consistently loving and generous (especially when there was an opportunity to cook for the socials!) and we always perked up seeing your faces at the services. Being able to see him during your last visit to the SFMC at the YogaShift location is more poignant knowing it was our last embrace. We send our deepest sympathy to you and your family as you grieve, while it brings a smile to think of who will be welcoming him on the other side. In divine friendship and love, Robert and Laura

We were fortunate to call Allen a friend and neighbor on Vilas Road. His laughter, optimism, and loving spirit were a special part of our neighborhood family. Sending so much love to the entire family during this tender time. -Kerry Gautsch (Kyllo)

My favorite memory was when I visited Allen, his wife, Caryn and their daughter and grandchildren for lunch at their home in Los Alamos. It was the most wonderful afternoon, so joyful! Dear Allen, you were/are such a gift to us all. So very grateful!
