There are many of us in Northport who will never forget Andy and his lovely wife and I remember Ken collecting soda cans to find a cure for parkinsons. It was an honor to serve God besides Andy.
And never forget his years at Grumman!

As an altar boy under Father OFarrell and Deacon Schneider who we all know as "Andy" the news of his death is terribly sad. But Deacon Schneider would want us to celebrate his achievements and remember the good times. When I was in elementary school I grew so fast that the robes we wore as altar boys no longer fit so Andy gave me his Deacon Robe and I told him I looked like Obe -One Kenobe from Star Wars since his robe had that big hood and the large arms..I even hid my hands with them....I think it was the summer before freshman year of college he convinced my to serve as a lectern for Sunday Masses. I was unsure about this but he said he would be there..so I said sign me up....everytime Andy was at Mass with me I was extra happy. There are many altar boys out there who will remember Andy's unique handshake..even during the "Peace be with you " part of Mass(I thought..this guy is cool!). As a kid I knew Andy from Church and Andy is definitely one of those people in my life who I will always remember as someone who had a positive impact on my life... in the past two years I got to know him as a businessman and it turns out he worked at Grumman with some of my friends' fathers.
Andy was one of those people that you are happy to see anytime.. I kept on meeting Andy at King Kullen in Northport, at the nursing home in Fort Salonga and even once when I had my office in Huntington.
Deacon Andrew Schneider. We will always remember his Service to God and his ability to help us serve God. God Bless Andy, Heaven is truly a better place with you there.
