Patrick Schneider Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 3, 2014.

Patrick James Schneider, 27, of Hayward, Wisconsin tragically lost his life Friday, February 28, 2014 in a fatal vehicle accident.
Patrick was born in Elgin, Illinois on June 30, 1986, the son of Douglas and Jane Schneider (McDonough). His family moved up to Hayward in 1997. He graduated from Hayward High School in 2004 and this is where he called home. After graduation he fulfilled his dream of becoming an electrician. Through his dedication, hard work, and determination, within three years, he became a foreman and then earned the title of Senior Foreman/Construction Manager. He was also recognized as "Electrician of the Year" in 2012.
He loved hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, bowling, hillbilly horseshoes, bags, camping and dancing. He especially loved spending time with his family and friends cooking, playing cards, and listening to music. No matter where he was, or what he did, he always made people laugh and brought a smile to their face. His infectious laugh, classic smile, and unique sense of humor brought joy to all and will be greatly missed.
Patrick is survived by his parents, Douglas and Jane Schneider (McDonough) and his sister Lory; his paternal grandfather Larry (Mary) Schneider; maternal grandmother Connie (Dowell) McDonough; paternal great grandfather Arthur Stadie; An Aunt, Dheanne (Schneider) Whitson, and uncle James (Sharon) McDonough; Cousins; Danielle, Joshua, Jacob, Rachael, Grace and many other family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his paternal great grandmother Florence (Gruber) Stadie, paternal grandmother Nancy (Stadie) Schneider, maternal great grandfather Earl Dowell Sr, and cousin Joseph Whitson who he thought of as a brother.
Visitation will be held on Wednesday, March 5th at 5pm- 8pm and Celebration of Life will be on Thursday, March 6th at 1pm. All services will be held at Anderson-Nathan-Koerpel Funeral Home on Hwy B, in Hayward, Wisconsin.

It has almost been 1 year since my pal Pat left this world. I still think of him a lot. To his family: as some one that constantly worked with your son out of town away from our families, I wanted you to know that Pat was always talking to us guys about how much he loved his family and how he couldn't wait to spend time back at home. I hope that your loss will be comforted with the memories others shared. He truly was a great man and one that loved his family

We will all meet him again at the happy hunting grounds in Heaven

Doug and family, I only know you all through a silly computer game. I am deeply saddened by your loss and can only offer my support from the other side of the world. I love the pictorial and can see you in your son Doug. It is a time to celebrate the life and opportunity that Pat had and the love and support everyone gave him.
Pat, believe me when your dad says you are his best friend. No one else could drag him away for a game of cards and a burbon like you could. You were always the focus for Doug and he had great joy in sharing your fishing expeditions and antics with me. He is and continues to be a very proud dad.
Mrs Schnider, I havent met you yet... but thank you for the opportunity to met your husband and be a part of your life through the internet and silly games.
God bless and please remember that i am always thinking of you all.
Pat, dont catch all the fish up there mate, your dad still needs a big one :-)
Love to all

Every time I walk out my front door I think of Patrick. He and his grandpa built my front brick step to finish off the brick sidewalk. He was about 5 years old and already a hard worker. He grew up to be a wonderful young man, loved by all who knew him. He will never be forgotten.

A great person taken way to early. I know we have only known him for 5 years but in those five years we got to know a loving son, brother,grandson,cousin and friend to many. He was always happy and smiling and that became contagious to all that had the opportunity to be part of his life. He will be greatly missed. Our hearts go out to the entire family. RIP Patrick

We are so deeply saddened. Pat was truly a great man. His ability to smile and laugh at all times is so admirable and contagious. At our wedding he was genuinely the life of the party.....dancing and jumping around and hugging EVERYONE. He is gone much too soon but he has left an impression on us and undoubtedly each person who has ever known him. Heaven has gained an incredibly joyful angel. Our thoughts have not left you all and our prayers for you are steady. Love you all

Words cannot express how you all are feeling right now. I love you all so much and wish I was there to give you all a big hug. I will always remember his smiling face as I was chasing him around the house in Marengo with Lory on my hip and him saying you can't catch me Angie laughing and giggling his smile alone made Lory and I giggle smile too. He will forever be missed and loved. Sending you all my strength love and prayers.
