Walter (Waldemar) Schienke – Passed away peacefully on January 21, 2017 at his home in Richmond Hill, with his wife Hedy, and other members of the family at his side. He has left this earthly home to be with his Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, the One he loved to sing about.
He leaves behind his loving and devoted wife, Hedy; daughters Doris (Gary), Sigrid, and Rosemarie (Bentley); son John (Christina), his older sister Eileen, and younger brother Harry.
He was also blessed to be the grandfather of 10 grandchildren, Amy, Andrea, Cole, Logan, Jordan, Julia, Hannah, Matthew, Nicholas, and Tiana.

In lieu of flowers, contributions to “Liberty Corner Mission” (an interdenominational faith mission) would be appreciated. This is the place Walter and Hedy first met in 1963. They continued to enjoy returning to Liberty Corner right up until this past summer of 2016. Please speak with Hedy for further instructions.
