Joseph Schreiner was born in Montréal (Québec) on August 23rd, 1929. He is the son of Joseph and Anna, immigrants from Brezno in the Banská Bystrica (Slovakia). He also has a brother, Steven and a sister, Mary Zibrin (née Schreiner). As a child, Joseph Schreiner was taught Slovak at home by his parents and attended an English school. Following his 18th birthday, he joined the Canadian Armed Forces and served for 25 years, including several tours of duty abroad in Congo, Korea and Germany. After his military career, he worked at Weights and Measures. When he retired, he spent most of his time in Florida. He was married to Rita Schreiner (née Boyer) and has two children Susan Murray (née Schreiner) and Joseph Schreiner. He was also a father to Rita’s children Gerard, Alain and Donald Boucher.
Joseph Schreiner was quite involved in the Slovak Canadian community. He supported various fellow Slovaks and was a member of many Slovak organizations including the Canadian Slovak League and the First Slovak Catholic Union in Montréal. Most notably, he was a proud fan of the Slovak hockey team and cheered them during the 2014 World Junior Championships a few weeks prior to his death on January 9th, 2015 at the age of 85
