SLMPD-2021-56
Former St. Louis Police Officer Winona J. "Jean" Schrieber, entered the St. Louis Police Academy in 1951, a time when the department had no female officers. After 4 1/2 years with the Saint Louis Metropolitan Police Department Jean changed departments and became the first female officer in the St. Louis County Police Department in 1957. Her assigned DSN with the Saint Louis County Police Department was DSN 203. Attempts to locate her SLMPD DSN, and any photo's with the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department were to no avail after an extensive search.
Dearest daughter of the late Mr. & Mrs. Edward C. and Helen (nee Bergman) Colley.
A lifetime resident and servant to St. Louis, Winona "Jean" Schrieber began her formative years as an orphan residing at the St. Louis Girls Home. The loving care and giving spirit of the Protestant women who ran the St. Louis Girl's Home were the example of service to community that inspired Jean to give back.
Both the County of St. Louis and the State of Missouri have honored Winona "Jean" Schrieber with Proclamations for her community service and her trailblazing role in the St. Louis Police Community.
Jean retired from the county police after 22 years of service, but her service to her community didn't stop after retirement. She continued to dedicate her life to serving the St. Louis Metropolitan area and the state of Missouri through volunteering.
Here are just a few of the volunteer "jobs" Jean held after retirement:
- For 20 years Schrieber volunteered at the Veteran's Administration.
- She delivered Meals on Wheels for 20 years before she had to give up driving. (even while using her walker!)
- She volunteered at the riverfront in the St. Louis Visitor Center greeting visitors and promoting the city's offerings.
