Richard C. Schneider 

Richard "Dick" Schneider age 69, passed away on March 10, 2025 at Waukesha Memorial Hospital, due to complications from a routine procedure.

Dick was born on January 21, 1956 in Milwaukee, WI to his parents Roy and Audrey Schneider and later raised in Pewaukee.

Dick was a 1974 graduate of Pewaukee High School. He then went on to work many jobs; Steamfitter apprentice at Petroleum Equipment, Shipping and Receiving at Allied Insulation, Truck Driver at DUECO, Target Distribution, and LF George, to name a few.

Dick enjoyed riding his motorcycle (when he was younger), racing, and people. His hobbies were collecting NASCAR Matchbox cars, and, most of all, his trains. He loved his trains!

Dick’s final act of kindness was to give the gift of life through tissue donation.
