Alvin was employed by Sweetheart Bakery and owned and operated a service station, Schneider’s Service, for 40 years.  He was an avid fisherman, a member of St. Anne’s Catholic Church, the Amvets, and the Reel and Rec Club.  He will be greatly missed by his friends and family.

He will be deeply missed by one son, Karry Schneider of Bismarck; one daughter, Kay Schneider of Highlands Ranch, CO; two brothers, Mike (Johanna) Schneider of Linton and John (Lil) Schneider of Strasburg; one sister, Mary Grinsteiner of Linton; his sister-in-law, Lauretta Schumacher of Glen Ullin; and several nieces and nephews.
