JANE I. SCHNEIDER - 94 of Punta Gorda/Port Charlotte, Fl. passed away on Wednesday, January 26, 2022. She was born November 20, 1927 in Batavia, Indonesia. Jane and her late husband, Rene, came to the United States in 1956.
They were sponsored by the World Church Organization in Kansas City, MO. For a couple of years, Jane worked for the Presbyterian Church as a Kindergarten teacher. A job she loved, particularly because they had no children. Jane was then hired by the Belgium Consulate as a Secretary/Translator. After some time, Jane was transferred to the Consulate in Chicago. They made their home in Itasca, IL where they built a beautiful home which Rene had designed.
By mid-1994 they retired to Punta Gorda where they had a new home built in the Deep Creek area. Jane and Rene were active members of the First Presbyterian Church of Port Charlotte.
Jane is survived by her two brothers, Rudy E. (Betty) Falkenberg of Lancaster, SC, and Robert A. (Joan) deFalkenberg of Bloomingdale, IL and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband, Rene, and half-brother, John A. Sweris.
