Schneider Family Reflects
A tattered scrapbook and a handful of 8mm movies are like gold to John Schneider’s family. The grainy images of a smiling Schneider are all they have left to remind them of the happy days when he was alive, days that were forever taken from this family by one man’s murderous act. Schneider, a Winona County Sheriff’s Office investigator of 22 years, died from a rifle blast to his chest September 7, 1980 after he responded to a domestic disturbance at a mobile home in Goodview.
