Dear Kathy and Family, Deepest sympathy on the loss of your wonderful husband and father. May you find a way to move on with the beautiful memories of William to sustain you. Forty-two years a teacher speaks to his love of the profession and his concern for the future of his students. Love never dies.

RIP Mr. Snodgrass
One heck of a Teacher and just a class act of a man. You were always good to your students and it seems like yesterday when you taught me at St. Colemans. Rest easy.
