Obituary

Hope E. Schreiber passed away on April 27, 2020, at Stonebridge at Montgomery, Skillman N.J.    She was an energetic 95.

Hope was born in Toronto on October 6, 1924, to Joseph and Hetty Dorman.  Her family later moved to Brooklyn, N.Y., where her sisters Heather and Valerie were born.   Hope attended Bay Ridge High School and graduated in 1941.   She then worked for Chase National Bank.

In June 1944, Hope married Charles Schreiber and they moved to Corning, N.Y., where they raised three children – Donald, Nancy and Stephen -- and lived happily for over forty years.

Hope was involved in a number of volunteer and civic organizations in Corning including the Girl Scouts, the Red Cross, Christ Church, the Salvation Army, the Corning Hospital and Corning Futures.    She also worked for a number of years for Corning Community College and then for her own business, Affiliated Services.

In 1986, Hope and Charlie moved to Princeton, N.J. after Charlie retired from Corning, Inc.   In 2002, Charlie passed away.   In 2007, Hope moved to Stonebridge at Montgomery where she was an active participant in daily activities for the remainder of her life.

Throughout her life Hope was known for her energy and determination.  She loved to walk, talk and socialize.   Given the chance, Hope would dance the night away as she did a year ago at her grandson's wedding.   She was very fond of Thai\Lao and Indian food and liked using Facetime on her Ipad.    Most of all, Hope enjoyed being with her family.

Hope is survived by her two sisters and their families, her three children, Donald's wife, Mary, his two daughters, Stephanie and Suzanne, their son, Nick and their spouses and children, David, Sean, Kayla and Brandon O'Sullivan, Jason Schreiber and Meaghen Bouck, Nancy's husband Greg Hand and their children, Emily, Matthew and Peter, and their spouses and children, Chris Cashwell, Megan, Beau, Heidi and Drew Hand, and Alison and Merritt Hand.   Hope thought of the Sihavong brothers, Nara, Naret, Narin and Narit, as grandchildren, and their spouses and children, Jennifer, Sheryl, Lily, Noy, Sierra, Dawson, Taylor, Preston, Brandon, Jake, Dani, Sandara, Emma and Tyler Sihavong as part of her family.

Hope will be deeply missed and forever loved.   She will be buried next to Charlie in a private ceremony at the Princeton Cemetery.
