He was a sailor of exemplary service and loyalty to the Navy, supporting and mentoring his fellow sailors in every way he was able. He had two deployments to Hawaii in his career which spanned 19 years and 3 months, and was stationed in Virginia at the time of his passing.
LT Schwartz is survived by his wife, a son and a daughter.
