Only knowing Stanley for only a few years, I can truly say he was a great man. we always made sure we spent time with each other while at work. We talked lot about his classic car, and told me how much he loved that car. I looked forward to seeing Stanley every Friday he was scheduled to work at Wal-Mart. My thoughts and prayers goes out to Snyder family. He will be missed by all he came in contact with!!

Snyder Family,
When Stan worked in the Garden section at Wal-Mart, he was always my cashier. One day he asked me what I was doing and I told him we were getting ready to make homemade ice cream. Stan said I haven't had homemade ice cream in many years. I said well I live across the way, when I make some I will bring you a bowl. Later, my daughter and I brought back some ice cream for Stan. He was so happy. He couldn't believe that I brought some back to him. Everytime after that we always talked when I would come in. He was a joy! I will miss seeing him. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time of need. "Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5 3:5

He was a very wonderful man to work with. When I first started Walmart he would often talk to me and make me feel better. Best memory is that he would always call me "sweet pea" He will be sincerely missed.

I worked with Stanley and Pam at walmart. Stanley was the sweetest (and most mischevious) man. He was always telling us stories/jokes, giving us candy out his pocket, and just being there to lend an ear . I remember his sparkling eyes and big smile. I will miss going into the tuttle store and seeing Stanley greet the customers. Find peace in knowing that he is in a better place.
