      An ardent farmer, he had his farm, The Forest View, at Blair. He was a member of the Knights of Pythias and attended the Church of the Good Shepherd.

      At an early age he had started work with his father and played a prominent part in building up the business of the J. M. Schneider, Ltd. Born Nov. 17, 1884, in Kitchener, he was a son of the late J. M. Schneider and Helena Ahrens.

      On June 9, 1908, in Waterloo he married Georgina Allendorf, who survives together with a daughter Lorraine, Mrs. Lorne R. Shantz, Kitchener; two brothers, Norman C. and Fred H., both of Kitchener, and a sister, Emma L., Mrs. W. V. Siegner. Four grandchildren also survive.
