William "Chico" Schuyler, Jr.

Dearest Chico...all my memories of you are beautiful. Not only were you my precious husband, but my best friend. Your greatest attribute was the ability to teach..you have taught me more that I can say..taught me about love and more than that, about living for today and never giving up. We have been through some hard times together and like I've told you many times before...we will get through this one also. You will be sadly missed and loved forever.

Too many memories. My brother-in-law - my friend. Fantastic uncle. Always made me laugh. Spent hours on the phone with Donny. I love Chico!

Chico was my uncle, my godfather, my namesake, my blood , my family and most importantly . my friend. He was one of the toughest, if not the toughest person that I've ever met. When I was younger he would give me hope even if he didn't know he was. He convinced me that if you want something enough, nothing can stop you from achieving it. Chico may have been short in stature, but to me he was ten feet tall. His compassion , personality, and ability to put a smile on your face was second to none. They say that you only realize how much you love someone or something when it's gone. That's only partially true. I cherished every single moment I spent with him, whether it was in person or over the phone. I only wish that I could have spent more time with Chic. To remind him of how much I love and care about him as well as, ranting on with him about how much The Eagles suck, that there is always next year & thank God for the Phillies. I wanted to be at Chico's wake more than anything, regardless of the fact that my sorrow would ultimately result in me not being able to read this. No matter how hard I try to explain how much I love Chico, how much I will miss him, and how much he meant to me; I couldn't. Such words simply do not exist. I will carry on with you in my heart until the day I come up to see you. "May the wind always be at your back and the sun upon your face. And may the wings of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars." Day turned to night Darkness has come Melancholy eyes, ties and black shoes Where is the light? Dim from much glum, Caliginous sighs, and the sound of the blues. Soon it will turn bright Arise does the sun brightening the skies as well as our moods. Tyler William Schuyler

Who will ever forget that smile. You could feel his energy when in the same room. He seemed to bubble with life. Always had the knack for looking at the "silver lining" in things. Simply said, the eternal optimist. All of my uncle's ARE my brothers. They'd have my back, no questions asked. I will never forget you and treasure all of the time I was able to spend with you. Thank you God for allowing me to know this wonderful, funny, caring and kind person. Give Pop, Nan & Ron a huge hug for me. Rest in peace. Love ya Chic.

I will always have so many fond memories of you Chico....you always had a smile on your face and you always made me laugh even tho we differed on our sports teams...lol Dani always used to love watching you do your card tricks. God Bless Chico...we will always love you and miss you...say hi to the family!! Nothing Gold Can Stay~Robert Frost Nature's first green is gold. Her hardest hue to hold Her early leaf's a flower But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf so Eden sank to grief So dawn goes down today Nothing Gold Can Stay You will always be Gold, Chico!!

Chico was the gretest men I have evwer known. Mike and I had some of th best memories of our lifetime. Many of those at Myrtle Beach SC. He had one of the gretest personalities I have i have ever known. Chico was alot of fun. I knew when Carol and Chico met they were made for each other. Chico will be sadly missed.

Remember the good times we had together in Medford.Rest in peace until we meet again.

Chico, To know you was to love you! Since you came into our family not only have you touched my heart but more importantly my mother and children. Thank you so much for making my mom so happy and being so good to Michael, Nicholas, and Gabrielle. They loved you more than you will ever know and miss you so much already. I will never forget going to the Phils Giants playoff game in 2009 when after the final out you made an all out sprint from our seats to the car and left me alone amongst 45,000 people. All so you could get to the crown vic where you illegally parked for a quick escape. Of course you remembered to grab your little cooler that you stuffed 4 hoagies in just in case it went extra innings. I love you man and could never thank you enough for all you did for our family. You are a true inspiration and taught me a great deal about what is truly important in life. You fought the good fight and are the strongest man I have ever known. Love you Chico

I didn't grow up around Chico like my brother or cousins, but he made an impact on my life. I remember him most during my young adult years, before i was married & after we had kids. He extolled the virtues of Taco Bell's steak fajitas to me. He was a good friend and brother to our father Ron. He came down to Florida with Dad before we left for Okinawa, we were @ Olive Garden. I'm glad you found love & a family with Carol. I will miss you. Angie

Dear Carol, We just learned of Chico's passing and our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your loved ones. We remember him always smiling and upbeat. How blessed you all were to have him in your life! Fondly, Pat and Harry Williamson

Remember the first time I met him thinking "he's not mexican".. he used to leave the remote in the freezer.... Remember the day he met his wife Carol, he came home with a glow that I never saw leave his eyes... his love for family

I wish to thank everyone who spoke at Chico's funeral service. I wanted to share a story about Chico but didn't think I could get through it while standing among you all. This then is why I have chosen to submit a second candle. OK, here goes it: While visiting the Schuyler's house on Skeet Road, Chico and I were sitting together on a couch watching the Phillies game. Others were making their dinner plates in the kitchen before returning to the front room to watch the game. The Phillies weren't playing well that particular day so Chico decided we should change fate by generating some good luck. He says, "OK Tone, let's go...it's time to turn our hats around." So around they went. The next batter strikes out. Chico's like, "Geez, OK do you have anything in your pocket?" My reply, "Yes". He says, "OK, take what's in that pocket and put it in your other one." I decide, no this is crazy, it won't help and shake my head no. He changes things to his other pocket and reluctantly allows me to continue to watch the game even though I didn't do as he wished. The next batter Bowa grounds into a double play. Chico exclaims, "MAN!!!" At that moment big Ron and Don are returning to the room with their plates and say, "What happened?" Chico says, "Bowa grounded into a double play...and it's all because Tone here didn't change his pocket..." Big Ron and Don are like, "Yo Tone, what's up with that...let's get with the program pal..." I'm sure many can vouch for Chico's attempts to change his teams fates. It always seemed that time would stand still and none of us would ever grow old. We'd just live together as we were forever. Miss ya big guy, RIP!!!
