Richard Gerald Snyder

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Jerry. I met him through his daughter, Sherrill, and helped him with various environmental projects on his property over the years.

Gerry had an old GMC motorhome and would attend many of the RV events with us. He was a wonderful person that everyone loved and respected. Rest in peace, my friend.
