Helen Como ran his dialysis center for years.

He had a good sense of humor, a big heart, very caring.

For example, if there was a patient or a family that was struggling financially, he would help them out.

And he would always take his time with them, not just from a physical standpoint, but just to see how they're doing, what's going on.

But Dr. Schwartz also had a little bit of an edge.

He just had a way of making jokes about things, and not only to me, but with others.

And one of his favorite expressions was, what do you have, s*** for brains?

Police learned Stephen met Rebecca in the late 90s.

She was divorced with two sons.

They started dating, and it wouldn't be long before Rebecca was working at the clinic and then running it all together.

Fourteen years after they met, they got married.

Family friends told detectives Rebecca catered to Stephen's every need, and it all seemed to work.

He had a helpmate at home and at the office.

Not every couple can work together.

It sounds like they both just kind of found a lane where they excelled and were able to do that in the practice.

Eventually, this man, Kyle Smithy, took over the clinic's day-to-day operations, but Rebecca still helped out.

What was her working relationship life with Rebecca?

We got along well.

We spent a good amount of time together outside of the clinic as well.

She would often invite Kyle to join her for drinks and dinner.
