In Loving Memory of William H. "Billy" Schreiber

William H. "Billy" Schreiber, 76, of Scranton, passed away Monday afternoon in Moses Taylor Hospital.

Born in Scranton, he was the son of the late Hummel and Eleanor Techmanski Schreiber, owners of the former Schreiber's Men's Store in downtown Scranton. He was a graduate of Scranton Technical High School and went on to serve in the Army Reserve. Billy was a true entrepreneur as owner of several well-known Scranton establishments, including the Villa Capri, the Sixpence, the Board Room, the Black Garter and the Doghouse. In his retirement, he became known as the Dog Father, serving many with a smile out of his food trucks all over Scranton. Each business he established engaged thousands of people and many friends. You may remember seeing his dog, Sheeba, a German Shepherd who was his loyal traveling companion through all of his daily routines. This will all be remembered by the people who knew him who were his close friends.

Surviving are a daughter, Rebecca Lea Goode and husband, Johnny R. Goode III, of Denver, Colo.; a son, Billy Schreiber, of Scranton; grandchildren, Johnny R. Goode IV and Lilly A. Goode; his brother, Peter Schreiber and wife, Gina, of Scranton.
