On September 14 at 12:39 PM, our beloved Elizabeth "Ellie" Grace Schneider peacefully passed and met her Heavenly Father, surrounded in prayer and by her family. Ellie was born March 9, 2002 to Raymond III "Ray" and Tamra "Tami" (Myers) Schneider.

Ellie is, was, and will always be one of the biggest hero's and inspirations in our lives. She embodied strength, courage, grace, perseverance, love, patience, faith and joy — fruits of the spirit — every day, even when (especially when) faced with obstacles and challenges. She was a true warrior.

Ellie was kind, absolutely brilliant, silly, a kick-butt dancer, and had one of the most beautiful souls. She was radiant and beautiful in every way. She always had this inner confidence and wisdom that could not be shaken; this inner peace that surpassed all understanding.

Ellie was such an incredible daughter, sister, friend, cousin, niece, and granddaughter. A day will not go by without remembering and missing her beautiful smile, laugh, and loving presence. Words cannot describe how much we will miss Ellie, but we know that heaven is rejoicing as she returns home. We cannot wait for a day in which we are all reunited.

Ellie is survived by her parents, Ray and Tami, her sisters, Annie and Lauren, and her grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. She is greeted in heaven by her second cousin Melissa Protz and her great-grandparents.

Family and friends may visit at Spring Lake Church (Bellevue Campus), 2240 Klondike Road, Green Bay, beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, September 20, 2024. A memorial service will begin at 1:00 p.m.
