Brian Snodgrass Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 21, 2013.
Brian Henry Snodgrass August 18, 1955 - July 15, 2013 Our dear Brian passed away suddenly, but peacefully in his home due to complications from diabetes. He was the son of Mary Ann and Jack Snodgrass and was born and raised in Bakersfield, CA. He attended local schools graduating from Bakersfield High and he also attended Bakersfield College. In 1982 he moved to Redding, CA where he started his family and raised two daughters. After many years, he returned to Bakersfield and worked in the home security industry. Brian loved gardening and the outdoors and through the influence of his father became an expert creator of Bonsai. He also loved cooking and experimenting with food, to the delight of his mother and family and his food reflected his creativity. Preceding Brian in death was his father, Jack Snodgrass. He is survived by his mother, Mary Ann Snodgrass, daughters Ashley Snodgrass and Shelby Billenger of Redding, CA. He is also survived by an Uncle, Litch Sparks, Jr. of Texas and many, many cousins. We come from the earth, we return to the earth -- and in between we garden - Anonymous As per Brian's request, there will be no services. In remembrance of Brian, a donation to the Tree Foundation of Kern would be appreciated. www.bakersfield.com/obits

My mother, Shirley Ashby, appreciated his kindness during her long illness. She often mentioned Brian, and how sweet he was to check on her, tend her plants and say kind things.
