Wayne Theodore Schneider (Bradford) of Kamloops BC entered into eternal peace on August 2, 2017 at 53 years young.
Born in Saint John New Brunswick, Wayne enjoyed growing up on the East Coast but Kamloops has been the place he has called home for the past 20 years.
Wayne will be missed by his Mom Simone (Jack), his children Ashley (Darcy) and Matthew (Kate), his brothers Allan (Elaine) and Carl, his grandchildren Makenzie, Marcus and Luca, his nieces and nephews Jordan, Emily, Laura and Cassandra, all of his Aunts, Uncles and friends.
He loved spending time with his family and friends. He was an avid fisherman who also enjoyed golfing. Wayne showed tremendous patience and strength this past year as he dealt with the struggles and challenges of having ALS.
He had a heart of gold and was always willing to help out someone in need. He will be forever missed, always loved and never forgotten.
Special thanks to everyone at the Kamloops Hospice home for the excellent care that Wayne and his family received.
Donations in memory to Wayne can be made to the Kamloops Hospice Association.

Sad to hear about Wayne’s passing. We were in the same neighbourhood when I was younger, and hung with Alan mostly – Wayne was a good lad. He was much to young.
My Condolences

Hi Rick, I just saw this post. Thank you for your comments. I hope you are doing well. Allan
I am so sorry to hear about Wayne’s passing. To be honest I found out about an hour ago…I lost contact with Wayne about a year ago..I knew him when we both lived in Kamloops.
He was a troubled soul with the biggest heart
He loved and missed his family so much while he lived in Kamloops, He talked about you often, He always talked about moving back to help his Mom and Jack out because they did so much for him
He missed his family terribly.. He spoke about his Mom he loved his mom so much he talked about how hard she worked when he was growing up, being a single mom with 3 boys. He talked a bit about his Father,
He talked about His Brothers Allen and his struggle with cancer He was really worried. He talked about Carl and his( wife) Sandy, He talked about his children and there Mom which he loved so much but he thought they were all better off without him.
He was so proud of Ashley and her husband and Matt. Matt was his Hero.. He talked about his grand children and how proud he was of them and how much he loved them and how he loved the visits & stays at the Sandman INN.. and when he visited them at there home.. I spent almost 6 years with Wayne .. I never met his family but its almost like I knew you through Wayne. He was the worst and best thing that ever happened to me he taught me that love doesn’t always win. I will miss Wayne and think of him often until the day I die.I will always love him. I would like to know where his final resting place is so I can say good bye to him can someone please let me know.. Thank you..
Hi Sandra, I am just seeing this now. Wayne is buried at Hillside cemetery on the same plot as his stepfather Waren (Pat) Schneider. Thank you for sharing your memory of Wayne. He is forever missed by all of us. Allan
