Steve Schnorf arrangements

Posted in:

* With many thanks to the fine folks at BlueRoomStream.com, we will have a free live stream this Thursday afternoon March 30th for Steve Schnorf’s “celebration of life.” The event will begin at 2 o’clock in Room 212. The room holds almost 200 people, but we figured we’d better have a video feed for those who either couldn’t make it to town or couldn’t get into the room. A reception of sorts will follow at about 3, and will be held directly across the hall in Secretary of State Jesse White’s office. Thanks to everyone who helped out on this.

From the family…

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Steve’s memory to:

The Marjorie Baker Schnorf Teaching Scholarship
EIU Office of University Development
600 Lincoln Ave.
Charleston, IL 61920

or

Rochester Public Library District
1 Community Dr.
Rochester, IL 62563

Speakers at the 2 o’clock event will include Steve’s widow Jane, Jim Kiley, former Gov. Jim Edgar, Speaker Michael Madigan, Sen. Donne Trotter, former Gov. George Ryan, myself, his three daughters (Quin, Rebecca and Elizabeth) and his granddaughter Jaelyn.

I will be attending Sen. Joyce Holmberg’s memorial. Otherwise, I would be paying my respects to Steve Schnorf. He was a great man and a great Illinoisan.

Is there an online link for memorials?
