The rest of the Schmidt family includes Adam’s wife, Amy, and their children, Kynlee, Rylann and Aynslee; and Andy’s wife, Kari, and their children, Emerson, Ayla, Kutler. Amy works in the Le Mars Community School guidance and activities office. Kari is a sixth grade teacher at Le Mars Community Middle School. Donna said she’s proud of their daughters-in-law, their careers, and the home life they’ve created with their sons. She misses taking care of little ones (since the grandkids now range in age from 9-15), but she enjoys helping to run them to various activities. With the three different sets of grandchildren in three different schools, she and Russ spend a lot of time attending youth sporting and musical events. Donna said, “We love every minute of it. Basically my life revolves around the grandkids …” “… and me,” added Russell.
The Schmidt family gives back to the community by volunteering for various organizations, including Adam’s service as president of the Craig Farmers Cooperative and in the Plymouth County Farm Bureau; and Andy is involved in various community and school activities. Donna and Russ said they are proud that their children and grandchildren are all active in their churches. “We’re all in different churches. But when Russ and I are in our church on Sunday morning, they’re all in their churches, too. It means we did something right. What we did sunk in, even if we wondered for a while during those teenage years,” she said. Andy said, “We’re all volunteering in different capacities in our churches, in our schools and in our communities. That’s what we grew up watching Mom and Dad do. They were instrumental in things like church councils and helping in our little town of Craig.”
