Obituary

Richard “Rick” Wayne Schneider, 67, of Lincoln passed away on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, at his home.

Rick was born on July 28, 1956, in Lincoln, the son of William “Bill” Henry and Marilyn Josephine (Krznar) Schneider. Rick married his high school sweetheart Tena Marie Wright on July 30, 1977. She survives.

Rick is also survived by his mother Marilyn, three sons Brad (Kim) Schneider of Lincoln, Eric (Matthew Roche) Schneider of St. Louis, Chris (Shanna) Schneider of Lincoln; his five grandchildren Grace, Ella, Henry, Hinley and Ivy Schneider all of Lincoln; one sister-in-law Bridget Schneider of Lincoln and his nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father; and two brothers, Mike and Joe Schneider.

Rick led a simple life. He began his career as a Mason his senior year of high school. A few years later he established Schneider Masonry, leading it for 30 years before passing it to his sons Brad and Chris. He took pride in the many homes and businesses he worked on and the ones he built.

He truly helped shape the Lincoln Community over the years. He enjoyed fishing, watching sports, taking his family on trips (especially to the Ozarks), and caring for his yard while enjoying an ice-cold Busch Light.

Although we grieve, our hearts are lost in precious memories. We know his character of hard work and love of his family built a strong foundation for his beloved wife Tena, his sons, and his grandchildren. We say goodbye with aching hearts. May the heavenly Father welcome him and ease our broken hearts.

A visitation for Rick will take place from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, July 9, 2024, at Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home in Lincoln.

Memorial donations may be made in Rick’s name to the donor’s charity of choice.
