Deepest Sympathy is sent to all of you. My parents Paul and Orlefa Loyer were each a relative of Ruth. They are both gone. Also Polly used to babysit my 4 J's.

To Mrs Ruth Snider and her Family:

In the late 1940's Mr Snider came to Beaverdam School and became our Jr Hi Social Studies teacher, then our HS Biology teacher, girls Phys Ed teacher, Principal and best of all, the boys Basketball Coach.
He was an excellent and challenging teacher and was able to take the small
number of boys in our small school and

players. We won several championshios in our league. And had a lot of...

I have the best memories of Grandpa Snider from growing up with Andrew. He was a staple at all of our sporting events, and always had a great story, funny joke, or words of encouragement to make us laugh and smile. My thoughts and prayers are with the Sniders and Fords -- he was a great man.

A life well lived!! Thoughts and prayers for the Snider-Ford family.

I went to Shawnee School with Paula. I remember a halloween party at the Sniders home. Mr and Mrs Snider were so nice. Mr Snider was also my bus driver. He was great. I remember Rick playing basketball. My heart felt sympathy to the entire family.

My deepest sympathy to Ruth and all of Pauls family. He was a wonderful brother and I loved him dearly. Jane.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Snider families. I have so many nice memories of your dad. And Paula, I send you a big hug, my friend.

I grew across the street from the Snyder family. I am 10 years younger than Paul, but I still remember him. God's blessing to the family.

My sympathy to Paul's family and loved ones. We met when I was sports director of TV-18 in 1969 and from that time forward he would always recognize me, know my name and give me a warm greeting. In the ensuing years I left West Lafayette and returned many times before retiring and returning to the community 17 years ago. Our paths crossed often. He was one of the most genuinely warm and friend,y people I have ever known and will be missed. Rest in preace Paul and thank you for your service as...
