Edgar "Glen" Snow

Edgar “Glen” Snow, age 85, of West Grove, Pennsylvania, passed away on April 29, 2025, at Christiana Hospital in Newark, DE. Born in Independence, VA, he was a son of the late “John” Kilby Snow and Lillie Blanche (Isom) Snow.

Glen worked for most of his life in the mushroom industry, particularly at Leto’s Mushrooms Farm where he was a supervisor/grower.

In his spare time, Glen enjoyed watching old Western movies, listening to country music and working on anything with a small engine. After retirement, he began keeping chickens and built his flock up to a couple hundred of them. The chickens were a wonderful hobby, and he enjoyed selling the eggs for extra income.

Glen will be remembered for his sense of humor and the love he had of his grandchildren and his great grandchildren.

He will be missed for his conversations and his embellishments of his stories of his youth and pastimes. He loved telling his grandchildren tales.

Glen is survived by his children, John Snow (Anita), Russell Snow, and Vickie Vansant (Samuel); an abundance of grandchildren and great-grandchildren; and his partner, Shirley Boyd. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by two brothers, Tom and Jim; one sister, Verna “Mae” (Snow) Frazier; and his son-in-law, GW.

Services and interment will be held privately.
