Besides having been a member of the Knights of St. Paul, Foresters of America, Loyal Order of Moose, Rescue Fire Company, and the Firemen's Relief Association, he was a member of St. Mary's Catholic Church and (their) Holy Name Society.
Bruno leaves, beside his wife, a sister, Julia Schneider; three sons: Edward, Henry, and George Schneider; and three daughters, Mrs. F. C. Bayer; Julia; and Margaret Schneider, at home (their daughter Salome died just 2 years earlier).
