Not sure what to say?

Dear Mrs. Snider,
Today I was going through my old addresses and found yours. My Mum, Rachel Morley, went to heaven on Feb. 7th of this year and I had hoped to find a way to reach out and tell you. On a whim I looked up Snider of Westlake Ohio and found your Ted's obituary! I felt both total joy when I saw his smiling face - though he has aged I knew it was him. I have such fond memories of meeting you folks in Bermuda. My Dad, Keith Morley, was giving us kids a life lesson about how to...

We moved in down the street in 1965 when I was nine. I’ve known him ever since. He wasn’t the cool dad or the strict dad, he was the quirky, funny, always easy to be with dad; even when he was being a dad. He and Jan were of my parents very best friends and honestly, it showed me what real friends can be. With Jan, he played excellent Bridge, lived in a perfectly kept home with three great kids, on a tree lined street in a wonderful town. Is that how you do it? I think so.    I called him to...

I first met Ted years ago through our friends the Mitchells in Fairview Park. Ted was the type you could be friends with almost instantly. My favorite memories are our weekly Monday morning golf games at the par 3 course, of course. Whenever one of us hit a good one we would joke that it was time for lunch because wed never hit another one as good. One of me favorite memories besides our weekly lunches was some years ago my sister from San Francisco was in town and we took her to L'auberge...

I first met Mr. Snider in 1983 when he started at Brooks Brothers at Eaton Center in downtown Cleveland. At that time, Ted was 56 and I was 19. Now I'm 56. My grandfather was intent on making sure I was set for impending job interviews as I headed into my junior year at Miami University. Of course, a classic navy blue Brooks Brothers suit was the first order of business. Through great serendipity, it was Ted that I first encountered walking down the staircase to the lower floor where the suit...

I met Ted as he started volunteering at the Visitor Information Center. He presented educational programs to school age groups and conducted tours of selected facilities to adult groups. He always enjoyed interacting with all visitors. He was a dedicated volunteer. Hoping that your family is comforted by memories, the caring of others and the healing power of time. And may the memories that mean the most to you live forever in your hearts.

Mrs Snider ,
We were so blessed to have you and Mr. Snider become part of our family when Beth married my brother Al .
We enjoyed so many gatherings and we were always in the presence of two amazing people ! The laughter and shared love between you two was a definite role model for us all!
Memories are not limited to but include birthdays and holidays not to forget the poolside conversations on the tree farm ! Life lessons and recommendations along with shared life adventures...

Mrs Snider ,
You are in our thoughts and continued prayers for the loss of an amazing man we were blessed to know !

No one can replace the love of a grandparent. Grandpa's heart and smile were the biggest that I have ever known. The love and laughter he gave us will live on in our hearts. Thank you, Grandma, for marrying the most wonderful man, so that we could have such a fun, loving, and special, Grandpa.

Dear Mrs. Snider,
I just learned of your husband's passing. Deepest sympathy to you and your family. You are such a special couple and Ted always had a smile and a joke to share. I will always remember him and I am so glad to have met you both. Having such wonderful people in our community is a blessing to us all. He had a rich life and was blessed with a wonderful family.
I hope to see you again very soon.
Sincerely,
Sue Provenzale
