Dr. Schneider was my advisor for my Master's work at JCU from 1984-1986. I waited nearly 10 years to pursue my MA degree and I'll never forget his kindness, gentleness and patience with me as I reentered the academic scene. Leo was more than an advisor; he was a mentor for me. His classes were outstanding, sometimes confusing for me since I had been away for a long period of time, and he always provided time to explain the material for me. I will never forget my years at John Carroll. After graduation, Dr. Schneider and I continued our sharing. I always looked forward to the annual Christmas photo and stories of his beloved family! I traveled through Ohio on several occasions and while passing the exit to continue north to the university, I usually recalled my fond memories of Dr. Schneider and my time at JCU. Susan, Rita and Carla, I offer my prayers and sympathy to you on the death of your beloved husband and father. I am truly grateful for having the opportunity knowing Leo and all of you for these past 20+ years. May our Provident God bless you always. Sister Donna Marie
