Gerald L. Snyder 1931-2005
This has been the hardest day of my life. I know it was for my mom and my brother and sister too. We let Dad go today. He is in the hands of God and we know that now he is at peace. I miss him so much already and I know that will never stop. There are a few things that bring me comfort even in this deeply sad time. First, Dad loved to spend time with us at the beach and he got to do that over the 4th of July. Also one month ago, my parents celebrated 50 years of marriage and that is a great accomplishment, something to be very proud of indeed. Dad knew a lot of people, and had many friends. He liked kids and they got a kick out of him too. He was loved by so many, his passing is a loss to us all. My heart is so heavy, but we know that God loves my Dad and my entire family so we take comfort in that as well. What gives me the most comfort is that Dad loved me and he knew that I loved him because I told him so. Tell the people that you care for that you love them. There's never a wrong time and you can't say it enough. Tell them, don't wait.
