Edward F. Schrader

Edward F. Schrader lost his valiant fight with cancer on February 23, 2014. His final days were spent at his winter home in Naples, Florida surrounded by his loving family and friends. He was born on March 12, 1938 in St. Louis, Missouri to Howard and Wilhelmina Schrader and was a brother to eight siblings.
He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of fifty-four years Connie Schrader (Schott) and their four children; Edward Schrader (Bernita), Lynn Schrader (formerly Marshall), Nancy Gresham (Robert) and Janet Van Heyde (Eric). The Schrader, Marshall, Gresham and Van Heyde families, totaling fifteen grandchildren and seven great grandchildren, will miss his smile, encouragement and hugs.
He is also survived by his brother George Schrader, Shirley Herries (Don) and Marian Despres (Alfred) and an extensive close knit family of nieces, nephews and in-laws.
Edward was predeceased by his parents and brothers Howard, Allen, Raymond, William and James.
