" He was a wonderful husband, dad, son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, nephew, cousin, neighbor, and the best friend you will ever have. He loved everyone he met and would drop whatever he was doing to help a person in need or to just converse for a bit. There were so many people praying for him and our family, however, early this morning, God decided he needed him in heaven at this time. We may never understand the timing of all of this, but I will always remember him saying to me "Friends and family don't say good-by.they just say, SEE YA LATER"
See ya later, Snuffy
Forever in our hearts."
