Roger Scott Snowdon


On Sunday, May 7, 2023 Roger Scott Snowdon, loving husband and father of two daughters, passed away at the age of 78. He split his time between his residences in Indianapolis, Indiana and Delray Beach, Florida. Roger was born in northern Ohio to William and Blanche Snowdon. He received his Accounting degree from Miami University of Ohio where he met his wife, Lynne Ryon Snowdon. He earned his CPA accreditation and worked at George S. Olive CPA firm, now known as BKD LLP. He then went to work at Fairbanks Communications and eventually retired as Treasurer of the Richard M. Fairbanks Foundation. He served as a Board Member of the Indianapolis Zoo and was an Advisor on the Palm Beach ABA Board.


Roger was preceded in death by his father, William, his mother, Blanche and his sister, Carol. He is survived by his wife Lynne, his two children, Amy Kosuch and Sherry Blech (Jim), his grandchildren Collin Kosuch, Morgan Blech, Nathan Blech and Carolyn Kosuch.

 

Roger had many interests including golf, tennis, snow skiing, photography, fishing, calligraphy, and bird watching. Throughout his life he enjoyed increasing his knowledge and skills. He earned a pilot license, took lessons in sailing and attended classes to rebuild outboard boat motors. Though a quiet, modest man, he was known for his quick wit and easy going personality and was always ready for a party.

 

Visitation hours will be on Saturday, May 13 from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. with a short memorial service following at Indiana Funeral Care located at 8151 Allisonville Rd. Indianapolis.
