President Trump Disagrees With CDC Director’s Prediction
(Bedminster, NJ) -- President Trump disagrees with a prediction from the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The President shared his viewpoint during a media event at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf club. He said he disagrees with Doctor Robert Redfield’s prediction that if Americans don’t heed the CDC’s COVID-19 recommended restrictions we will have “the worst fall from a public health perspective we’ve ever had.” Redfield said if there is another surge in the fall of COVID-19 it will be added into the mix with the fall flu season which is a combination many hospitals won’t be able to easily deal with. The President said the numbers have started to come down in states with surges such as Florida. He says people are wearing masks, social distancing and washing their hands so he doesn’t think there will be another surge in the fall.

Young, Jr. Jose Cortez “Joe” Young Jr., age 77 of Plainville, Georgia, formerly of Seguin, Texas, passed away with his children at his side on Monday, August 10, 2020 in Decatur, Georgia. Joe was born on July 16, 1943 in McQueeney, Texas, to Gomecinda (Cortez) and Jose Maria Young Sr. After attending school in McQueeney, Joe joined the navy, where he served as a Seamen Apprentice from 1960 to 1962. In 1963, he married Mary Louise Hernandez, with whom he had two children, Joey and Fannie. Starting out in his professional career, he got a job by saying that he knew how to pour concrete even though he did not. When on the job, he just watched what the other men were doing out of the corner of his eye to quickly pick it up. From there, he developed his own business, Joe Young Jr.’s Concrete. In 1986, he moved to the Atlanta, Georgia area, where he continued to grow his business along with his son, and ultimately his grandsons. Joe never met a stranger and would always start up a conversation with anyone anywhere. He was a wonderful story teller, even if you had heard some of those stories over and over again. He had many nicknames, including “Mighty Joe Young” in Texas, “Indian Joe” in Georgia and “Papa Joe” to his family. Joe was also well known for giving nicknames to everyone he came across, although he claims that he never came up with a nickname for his son-in-law or at least took that name to his grave. Many of those nicknames have stuck with the recipients for the rest of their lives.
Survivors include his son, Joey Young, III of Plainville, Georgia, and his wife, Esther Saenz Young, his daughter Fannie Young Smith of Austin, TX, and her husband Paul Smith, his grandchildren, Joe Anthony Young, IV, Samuel Ryan Young, Annabella Maria Smith, Owen Francisco Smith and Vanessa Alicia Smith, his long-time companion Julie Swann and her children, Deanna and Troy, and his sisters Maria “Chita” Teneyuque, Sylvia “Toby” Young and Ofelia “Faye” Gloria and her husband Joe, and numerous nephews, nieces, cousins, other loving family and many friends in Texas and Georgia. Visitation will begin on Wednesday, August 19, 2020 at 9 a.m. at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church followed by the Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. Interment with military honors will follow in Santo Tomas Cemetery. Due to Covid-19 all CDC protocols must be followed including social distancing, limited seating, and face coverings worn both at church and the cemetery. Should you desire, the service will also be livestreamed at https:// vimeo.com/event/220875. Serving as pallbearers will be Joe Anthony Young, IV, Samuel Ryan Young, Paul Smith, Owen Francisco Smith, Ricky Teneyuque, Armando Arambula, Jesse Villegas and Joe Gloria. You are invited to sign the guest book at www.treshewell.com. Arrangements are under the direction of Tres Hewell Mortuary, 165 Tor Dr., Seguin, Texas, 78155.
Schneider
Orlando A. Schneider, age 81 of Rockport, passed away on August 10, 2020.
In the early 80’s, Orlando moved to The Valley for work where he met and married Mary Frances (Sandy) Morgan. After his retirement they moved to Rockport, where Orlando enjoyed his love of fishing. If you could not find him, he was either at the bay or on a boat. He loved freshwater fishing and gulf fishing with family and friends. He is preceded in death by his wife, Mary Frances (Sandy) Morgan Schneider, his parents, and his brother Glenn R. Schneider and his wife Jeanine. Survivors include his daughter, Susan Skrzycki and husband Stanley; son, Kenneth Schneider and his wife Leah; and son David Schneider; daughter Denean Schneider; step-children, David Morrison, Michael Morrison (Carla), Robert Kemp (Rhonda), Chiare Kemp Davis, Cleo Jeanette Fleming (Robert), and Diane Kemp; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and other loving family members and many friends. Orlando’s family would like to express deep gratitude to Home Health Care, and all of its staff throughout the past several years. Family also wants to thank his neighbors Don, Roger, and Stanley for all of their help and friendship over the years. A walk-through line visitation will be held on Saturday, August 29, 2020 beginning at 9:00 a.m. at Tres Hewell Mortuary Chapel followed by funeral service at 10:00 a.m. with the Rev. Jim Price officiating. From the comforts of your home the service may be live streamed at https://vimeo.com/event/227078. Interment will follow in Dugger Cemetery. Due to Covid- 19 restrictions, all protocol including limited seating, all wearing face coverings and social distancing will be followed at all locations.
Joe always said that “Joe Young never die!” Unfortunately, he had been suffering from a hernia and other health issues for some time. While he should have been taking it easy, Joe wouldn’t slow down and insisted on pouring concrete on the day before he was admitted to the hospital. He passed away in the VA Hospital in Decatur, Georgia, from intestinal complications that developed from the hernia. It turns out he was right, however, Joe Young will never die in our hearts and memories.
Orlando was born on November 16, 1938 in GuadalupeCountytoOraMae (Kwast) and R. E. (Edward) Schneider. Orlando lived in Seguin during his youth and early adulthood where met and married Carole Lee Sappington. They had 3 children: Susan, Kenneth, and David. Orlando liked going with the whole family camping and fishing, and also went deer hunting, so that we could make some deer sausage, that we all loved to eat. He worked for Cardelle Terrazzo flooring, he did some concrete work for Lawrence Wahl, and did some fiberglass work off and on, before joining Dover Elevators where he retired after 25 years.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Cross Church, 814 N. Bauer, Seguin, Texas, 78155, American Diabetes Association, 2451 Crystal Drive, Suite 900, Arlington, VA 22202 (www.diabetes.org) or American Cancer Society, P. O. Box 22478 Oklahoma City, OK 73123(www.cancer.org)
Joe is preceded in death by his parents, his sisters, Anita Young, Lydia Young, Minerva Garcia, Lucia Aleman, and his brothers, Reinaldo Young and Rudolfo “Rudy” Young.
In October 1972, the family moved from Seguin to San Antonio. He also loved watching the Dallas Cowboys, especially the years when Roger Staubach was their quarterback.
Joe was very proud of his children and their families, and was always bragging about them.
The family understands the Covid-19 uncertainties and the need for everyone to stay safe – they know you have them in your thoughts and prayers. Orlando was cremated in Aransas Pass at the Charlie Marshall Funeral Homes and Crematory.
