ADRIAN - Michael Dean Schneirla, born July 1, 1955, celebrated his life in a joyful manner and was a true friend to all he knew.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Janice and Dean; a sister, Nancy at birth, and one nephew, Alec Gabriel.

The family would like to thank Robert Rothenberger for the care that he has given Mike for the past eight years.
