Mark F. "Cowboy" Snyder
Abrams - Mark F. Snyder "Cowboy", 71, Abrams, was greeted by his dogs at the end of his rainbow bridge on Saturday, September 15, 2018 with his family by his side. He was born in Green Bay, a son of the late Lola (Jean) and Frank Snyder; spending his childhood on the family farm in rural Oconto with his 8 siblings.
Mark spent 29 years working with Pomp's Tire, where he started in the warehouse and then moved to his love of driving semi-truck. He enjoyed so many things in his life, but a few that truly were Mark are his tinkering in the yard, being a backyard mechanic, going out to dance, collecting things to fix after retirement, watching rain/thunderstorms from his garage, or being with his dogs especially his service dog Max.
Mark truly loved his time with his family and loved ones and his gardens were a true pride for him to destress and enjoy the bounty they produced.
He is survived by his wife Kathy Laes; children: Brian L Snyder, Oshkosh, Mark (Susan) Snyder, Jr, Webster, and Jeanine (boyfriend Josh) Snyder, Green Bay; his step-children; his numerous grandchildren and great grandchildren: especially grandson Mathew (fiancé Shaunda) Brown and great granddaughter Alyssa Snyder; numerous step-grandchildren and great grandchildren; his five siblings: Dan (JoAnn), Sue (Mike), Roger (Karen), Bruce (Debbie), and Doug (Diane); nieces, nephews and his ex-wife Rosemary. Mark was preceded in death by his parents; great granddaughter Chevelle Brown sister Jane; brothers Mike and Tom; and his beloved dogs.
