Kaiden Christopher Schmidt, 13 of Coatesville, passed away on Monday, May 13, 2024 at the Reading Hospital. Born in Lancaster, he was the son of Christopher M. Schmidt of Coatesville and Renae Ford Shultz of Honey Brook.

Kaiden was a 7th grader in the Twin Valley School District. He attended the Morgantown Community Church. Kaiden was a proud member of The Centennial Chapter of DeMolay in Downingtown.

He loved his family. Kaiden loved baseball with his mom, basketball, dancing, singing, his video games, being outdoors, hiking and archery with his mom.

Most of all Kaiden loved cars. He had a huge matchbox collection and enjoyed learning all he could about new cars. Kaiden enjoyed helping his dad work on cars from a very young age and loved to take rides in his dad’s hot rod truck. Kaiden enjoyed off-roading, circle track and going to the drag races with his Stepdad Stacey. In the summer Kaiden enjoyed the pontoon boat and jet skis down in Charlestown Marina with his dad. He also loved going to the beach and on adventures with mom. Kaiden was awestruck by each and every new thing he discovered. 

He is and always will be loved and missed by all who knew him.

I’m not very good at this but I knew you when you were so little full of so much joy I remember riding dirt bikes and four wheelers with you and your father in the woods behind the park  always had a smile on your face, I didn’t get to know you fully but I remember those little times. I found a little poem for you.

Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us everyday. Unseen unheard but always near, still loved, still missed, and very dear.

I knew Kaiden. We met in band because we both played percussion. I’m currently in 8th grade so I didn’t have the chance to talk to him as much as someone in his grade could’ve, but every single time I had talked to him he was so kind to me. He seemed to love everything about band just like me. Everytime I think of Kaiden I see him smiling. Rip Kaiden 🕊️ I hope you’re doing better in heaven. We miss you.

Hi Nevaeh. I want to let you know that Kaiden talked about you a lot. Your friendship ment so much to him. I was so worried about you after he passed.  Thank you for being one of his best friends. You are correct, he’s up in heaven smiling down on us and playing baseball and singing/dancing his heart out. Much love and peace to you sweet girl.
