Milford Schneiderman's Obituary
Milford Schneiderman, 87, of Boca Raton, FL, passed away on Saturday, August 17, 2024.
He is survived by his beloved wife, Natalie Moel Schneiderman, his children Brian Schneiderman (Karen) and Karen Schneiderman Slater (Adam), as well as his grandchildren Jocelyn Naide, Jared Naide, Dylan Schneiderman, Zachary Schneiderman, and Lauren Schneiderman. He is also survived by his brothers Steven Schneiderman (Jimmie) and Herb Schneiderman (Eilene) as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins. He was predeceased by his parents, Joseph and Dora Schneiderman.
Milford was born in St. Louis, MO, and grew up in University City, raised in a large extended family. He played center on the basketball team at U. City High School. He attended the St. Louis College of Pharmacy and Allied Sciences, and served for 6 years in the U.S. Army reserves. He married Natalie Moel on May 15, 1960 and they recently celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary. In 1963, he moved to Huntington, WV, and in 1972, he opened Saver-X Pharmacy, which eventually expanded to include other healthcare ventures, Saver-X Nursing Service and Saver-X Home Health Care.
Milford was always an involved, respected member of the Huntington community, and a member of B’nai Sholom Congregation in Huntington. He and Natalie lead a full and productive life in Huntington until they moved to Boca Raton, FL in 2002. His life was full of family, travel and he was known for his love of Duke basketball, politics and the financial world.
Most of all, he was known as a pillar of his family. Nothing was more important to him than his family, especially his wife, children and grandchildren, ensuring they all received educations and were able to be independent and successful. He was kind, friendly, generous, always willing to lend a hand (especially to his family) and left a legacy of love and success. He loved his morning trips to kibbitz and chat with his buddies at “bagels” at Broken Sound, working out at the gym, and avidly following the news throughout the day. He also enjoyed keeping in touch with his family and friends, especially the grandkids, to whom he was a beloved Papa. He will be so incredibly missed.
Milford made a difference in the lives of so many people and touched so many hearts. Services will be held at Beth Israel Memorial Chapel, 5808 West Atlantic Avenue Delray Beach, FL 33484. Interment will follow at Eternal Light Memorial Garden, 11520 FL-7, Boynton Beach, FL 33473 on Tuesday, August 20, 2024 at 12:15 pm. The service can be viewed by clicking on the link below.
