I started working with Dr. Bernie Snyder just a few years before he retired, and along with my team at Grové Parks Hegarty Wealth Advisors have been blessed to serve as stewards of Bernie's financial life to this day. But more importantly, I have been blessed to get to know Bernie over these many years. I will never forget his kind demeanor and beautiful encouraging smile when we first met so many years ago, immediately putting one at ease. And that never changed even as time marched on. Always a kind word. Always a friendly smile. I wish the whole world could be like Bernie Snyder...
To the dear family, please know how much I respect and admire Bernie. Your loss is great, but his legacy even greater. God bless.
