Providence Hospital in Olympia, Washington as the result of a fall. LaNell entered Heaven's
Gates with two of her children, Tammy and Juley, by her side.
LaNell Ann Schneider was born on March 29, 1956 in Stuart, Nebraska to Edward and Loretta
(Kaup) Schneider. LaNell graduated from Stuart High School. LaNell is preceeded in death by
her parents and two unborn grandchildren, one unborn child of Rick (Kim) Gant, and one unborn
child Juley (Ben) Kolterman.
She is survived by her children Tammy (Chris) Corum of Allen, Kansas, Rick (Kim) Gant of
Olympia, Washington, Juley (Ben) Kolterman of Onaga, Kansas and Kandace (Parker) Dane of
Wichita, Kansas. She is also survived by nine grandchildren, CaLee (Nolan) Young, Spenser
Hoyt, Paige Corum, Connor Hoyt, Camron Corum, JoCee Hoyt, Emma Kolterman, Jackson
Kolterman and Charlotte Dane; and one great-grandchild Gregory Young. LaNell is also
survived by siblings Mary Kay (Bill) Marshall of Valentine Nebraska, Dan (Shari) Schneider of
Lincoln, Nebraska, Cathy (Steve) Kurban of Sioux Falls, South Dakota and Lori (Brant) Schafer
of Stuart, Nebraska.
She worked in various jobs throughout her life, but her most beloved ‘job’ was being a mother,
grandmother, and great-grandmother. She found great joy in sharing her time between her
children and grandchildren’s homes, attending almost ALL of their activities, dog sitting, and
helping in any way she could. Her two passions in life were her faith in Christ and love for her
family. She also enjoyed traveling, Starbuck’s coffee, and being outdoors watching her squirrels.
Family was everything to LaNell. There was not a day that went by that she wasn’t texting,
calling, or sending Marco-Polo's (video messages) back and forth with her family. LaNell often
began her days with a sunrise walk followed by spending time reading her Bible. She would
post her favorite scriptures or positive messages in the groups she belonged to on social media,
sharing her love for Jesus with others. LaNell will forever be missed by those surviving her here
on Earth, but her memories and love for the Lord will live on through her children, grandchildren
and great-grandchildren.
Memorial contributions may be made to the LaNell Schneider Family for the benefit of her grandchildren’s educational futures.
