I recently read about the loss of your dear loved one. Although we are not acquainted personally, please accept my condolences. Losing a dear loved one can leave a very empty space in one's life. Please find strength, hope, and comfort in the God of Comfort (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4).
May the God of all comfort take hold of your hand and walk beside you during your time of need. And, may you be strengthened by the hope of the resurrection. "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." -- Revelation 21:4

He dubbed me "Milk Duds" in elementary school, (because my name is Candy) and he called me that all the way through to High School. He was a great coach! He was also my driver ed teacher, he called our group "The Wrong Ways", every time he told us to go right, we'd try to go left. Lol he made school very fun.
To the Snyder family. This was one of the last real men in the area. Big heart! I am sorry for your loss. He was a very respected man in the Ruede household. Peace and aloha
Anita and family: Very sorry to hear of Coach Snyder's passing. He was a gentle giant to me. I will always remember how many inches apart from a guard and tackle your feet has to be due to a boot in the butt I received one day while practicing with Jackson High School Football Team in 1972. And I believe later Anita, you gave me several shots in the same area. " You haven't lost any one or any thing as long as you always remember where they are at." In heaven overseeing all of us. God Bless to you all, and thank you for sharing such a great man with all of us at East Jackson High School.
