Kristine Schneff Obituary

Kristine Lee Schneff

Marche 30, 1953 - March 30, 2024

Kristine Lee Schneff passed away peacefully at her home on Saturday, March 30, 2024.

She was born on March 30, 1953, the daughter of Warren and Elaine Schneff. Kris graduated from Central High School and worked for many years at the family owned Schneff's Jewelers.

She had a heart of gold and provided loving care for her father and mother as they aged at home. Her heart shined ever more brightly when she began caring for Schuyler Weber.

Family members include: Frank and Ann McCarthy, Barbara Schneff, Janet Trissel and Karen White.

We also want to thank Mary Priester, her best friend and John Kroeger for caring for her. We are also grateful for the dedicated staff at Genesis Medical Center and Hospice Care.

Per her wishes, there will be no services. Her ashes will be spread at the family cabin in Hayward, WI.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Kris was one of my idols in junior high and high school - my sister, Mirm, and I were lucky enough to have dinner with Ann and Barb in September. We will forever be in Kris´s debt for her care of our mom.

Never met Kristine, Mel was a relative of my family. My condolences to all the family. I completed my sterling silver dinnerware through Schneff Jewelry store years ago.
