Rev. George E. Schneider, St. Paul's pastor
The Rev. George E. Schneider was a Catholic priest who enjoyed working with his parishioners.
Father Schneider, who retired in 1999 as pastor of St. Paul Church in Florence, died Sunday at St. Elizabeth Medical Center North Hospice in Covington. He was 67 and lived in Newport.
"He was a very caring man," said his brother, Robert Schneider of Newport. "He was very close to me and to the people he served. It's a great loss for all of us."
Father Ralph Beiting influenced his brother's decision to become a priest, said Mr. Schneider.
Father Schneider was ordained May 31, 1958, by the Most Rev. William T. Mulloy at St. Mary Cathedral in Covington. He was assigned first as an assistant at St. Stephen Church in Newport, and he taught at Villa Madonna College in Covington.

In his spare time, he liked to dine with his brother and spend time with his nieces and nephews. He was a great debater who loved great conversations.
"He was a very brilliant man," Mr. Schneider said. "But he really was a people person. I know the people at St. Paul feel that. He was a great leader."
