KAREN SCHNEIDER
Age 52 of Lake Worth, Florida passed away on July 28, 2020. Karen was born in Niagara Falls, New York and following her time in Ithaca, New York, Karen moved to Binghamton, New York where she married David Schneider. Karen took a job with the Department of Social Services working with troubled families attempting to stabilize the families for the child to remain with the parents. Karen and David then moved down to Lake Worth, Florida where Karen started her own practice. During that time we were blessed with our son Devin. Karen then took a job as a social worker in the emergency room at the Veterans Hospital in West Palm Beach. Karen was very excited about her position with the VA. She had worked very hard to be accepted into the hospital. Karen worked for the VA throughout the time she was battling cancer. The VA was very supportive of her battle and offered everything they could to help her with her battle. Karen battled cancer for just under 12 years going from breast cancer to metastasize level 4 bone cancer. She did everything possible to fight the disease with the help of her family so she could maintain her life with her son Devin. However on July 28th 2020 she succumbed to the disease while in hospice. Karen was a very strong woman battling with cancer while still maintaining her position at the VA. Karen will be greatly missed by many people who she added to their lives. Karen is survived by her husband, David Schneider, her son, 14 year old Devin Schneider, her sister Holly Schaefer and the Schneider and Daunton Families. She will be missed greatly and remembered always.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
