INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana - Martin David Snyder, husband, father, grandfather, and friend, passed away on January 30, 2022 in Indianapolis, IN at the age of 79.
Dave was born to Rosalee (Henson) and Martin Snyder on April 25, 1942 in Los Angeles, CA and moved to Streator, IL when he was quite young.
Dave graduated from Streator High School before attending Southern Illinois University, graduating with a Master of Business degree. He was President of his Sigma Pi Fraternity.

Dave's passions were music and sports, especially his beloved Cubs and Illinois State Basketball.
