Brian Schneider Obituary

Schneider, Brian Jeffrey TROY Brian Jeffrey Schneider, 26, passed away on May 10, 2021, peacefully at his home. Born in Albany and raised in Troy, he was the son to John "Jay" Schneider and Kathleen Nash Schneider. Brian graduated from LaSalle Institute, the Canterbury Prep School and attended UMass in Boston. His mischievous grin was always followed by an infectious smile. While we will never know where his path would have lead he would have traveled it with a gift of laughter, an aim to please and a good soul. Most importantly his loyalty was unquestioned, he would never leave a man behind. Brian is survived by his parents, Jay and Kathy; his brothers, Corey and John (Amanda); his nieces, Callie and Chloe; and his grandmothers, Kathleen Gilbert and Jane Collins. Brian is also survived by his loving aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends. He was predeceased by his uncle Jeffy Schneider; and grandfather Paul Schneider. Family and friends are invited to a Mass of Christian Burial at 11 a.m. on Monday, May 17, in St. Augustine's Church, 25 115th St., Troy. You may also livestream the funeral Mass on YouTube at youtube.com/channel/UC1TEmqcnVzL fW6VgzZUDQ7g. Burial will be private in St. John's Cemetery, Troy. There will be no public calling hours.

My sincere condolences to Brian's parents, Jay and Kathy; his brothers, Corey and John (Amanda); his nieces, Callie and Chloe; and his grandmothers, Kathleen Gilbert and Jane Collins. Gone too soon.
As a father of 4 grown sons, I can't imagine your loss at such a young age. My thoughts and prayers are with all the Schneider family.

SAFELY HOME
I am home in Heaven, dear ones; Oh so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last. Did you wonder I so calmly Trod the valley of the shade? Oh, but Jesus' love illumined Every dark and fearful glade. And He came Himself to meet me In that way so hard to tread; And with Jesus' arm to lean on, Could I have one doubt or dread? Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still, Try to look beyond earth's shadows, Pray to trust our Father's will. There is work still waiting for you, So you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remains, You shall rest in Jesus' land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come !
