Derek Lane Schneider was born on December 10th, 1981 in Ponca City to Richard Schneider and Sherri (Adkins) Schneider. Derek attended Ponca City Schools and graduated from Ponca City HS in 2000. His school years were filled with numerous sports and other childhood activities. He continued his participation while in High School, lettering in football and basketball.
Derek loved the company of friends, eating steak and potatoes, summer time, going to the lake and bird hunting, He enjoyed exploring his families genealogy and listening to traditional country and western music. He enjoyed BBQing various meats and was an avid arrowhead hunter.
A man of so few words but those few spoken words were more than offset by his integrity, thoughtfulness, compassion and genuine love for his family and friends. He loved small children especially his beloved nephews, Laken and Cole Clowdus. Seldom was he seen without a "Big Gulp" fountain drink and his trademark smile would light up any room he entered.
After High School, Derek worked in the agricultural and construction trades. He was employed at the time of his passing with Environmental Action Inc in the ConocoPhillips refinery .

Contributions made will be used to establish a college education fund for his nephews, Laken and Cole Clowdus whom he dearly loved.
