William George Scheiderer, a proud veteran, dedicated engineer, and beloved family man, passed away leaving behind a legacy of service, hard work, and deep devotion to his family. Born on October 2, 1938, in Stuttgart, Arkansas, William was the son of the late Herbert Casper Scheiderer and Mary Ida Belcher Scheiderer. He grew up in Stuttgart, attending Lutheran Elementary School and graduating from Stuttgart High School in 1956. Following high school, William chose to serve his country by enlisting in the United States Navy. From March 1959 to March 1963, he served with honor, with assignments taking him to San Diego, California; Millington, Tennessee; Brunswick, Georgia; and Miramar, California. His time in the Navy remained a point of immense pride throughout his life. After his military service, William pursued his passion for learning and engineering. He attended Arkansas Technical College in Russellville before graduating from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in January 1968 with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE). His professional career as an engineer spanned decades, during which he contributed his talents to Dierks Bag Mill, Warwick Electronics, and Sanyo Manufacturing, where he worked until 2000. On August 14, 1965, William married the love of his life, Rose Ann Miller, at the Presbyterian Church in McGehee. Together, they built a beautiful life and family, residing over the years in Forrest City, Rogers, Pine Bluff, and most recently, Maumelle. William was also a faithful member of the Trinity Life Church of North Little Rock. William’s greatest joy was his family. He is survived by his devoted wife, Rose Ann; his three children, William George Scheiderer Jr. of Bella Vista, Elizabeth Ruth Scheiderer of Bentonville (p. 1), and Stuart Miller Scheiderer of Maumelle. He also leaves behind his cherished grandchildren, Madeline Krusz, Rebecca Scheiderer, Eason Clem, Solomon Clem, Brecken Scheiderer, and Logan Scheiderer, who brought immense happiness to his life.
