Willis Snyder,
One of the Great Ones of the Great Ones. A delightful, kind man who shared many things to all of us. I was in his rebuilding class when he received "The Call from the White House" to rebuild one of their pianos--and he came back and taught us to be better rebuilders. And when I started my study of how our work might impact our hearing, he came to me and offered to take the hearing test so we could have the data from one of the oldest members in the PTG. I will never forget his kindness--or his wonderful smile!
Diane

Greetings,
Willis Snyder was having bone frailness issues and a collapsed
spinal bone problem around October or so. He was on Boniva.
He fell a few weeks ago or so, hurt his head, and was battling
with that and the bone issues. He passed away a day or so ago.
For anyone locally, the viewing is Tuesday from 6-8 at the Lamm &
Wittman Funeral Home, 243 W Penn Ave, Wernersville, PA,. However the prayer
service is private and will be for the immediate family only.
I WILL MISS YOU, MR. SNYDER!!! YOU WERE SO COOL !.... THE GREATEST!!
