David Snell Obituary
David Snell was born on October 1, 1982, to Robert and Cindy Snell in Lubbock, Texas. David attended school at St. Luke's United Methodist Preschool, All-Saints Episcopal Elementary School, Trinity Christian, and graduated from Monterey High School in 2001.
His favorite classes at Monterey were economics and history. David continued his education at Texas Tech University and Auburn University. David was an astute investor. He loved to watch sports, movies, and, most of all, travel the world. In the last few years, David had traveled to Europe, Vietnam, India, and old Mexico. His family and his niece and nephews were his pride and joy, and they delighted when he came to visit, which was often. He was truly a one of a kind friend and a very generous person who brought everyone together.
David was preceded in death by his grandparents, Jack and Doris Snell of Vernon, and John and Helen Shelton of Odell.
He is survived by his parents, Robert and Cindy Snell, sister, Ann Meyke of New Home, niece, Sydney Snell; and three nephews, Greyson Snell, Brayden Meyke, and Beau Meyke, a host of loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
The family of David Snell has designated the South Plains Food Bank or the charity of your choice in lieu of flowers.

I am very sorry to hear about David, such a great loss to all that knew him. Being the nice guy he is, David was the very first friend I made at Texas Tech, while on the rush bus my freshman year. I will cherish the memories. Rest In Peace Brother.

I am saddened to learn of David's death, and I send my heartfelt sympathy and prayers to the Snell family in their time of grief. I was David's counselor at Monterey High School, and I remember him as being smart, inquisitive, and eager to learn. May wonderful memories sustain his family and friends as they mourn the loss of one so young and promising.
Sincerely,
Charlotte Sessom
