Dear Snyder Family,
I cannot remember when I did not know Celia (& Norman)Snyder. She always had a smile on her face; she was so sweet and kind. One of the biggest honors of my knowing her was being asked to write their 50th wedding anniversary poem. It was fun to do and a priviledge to write. To this day, it remains one of my favorites. I know that God will comfort all of you in this time of sadness, but, she has finally got to go HOME to see JESUS whom I remember hearing her sing about countless times. My prayers & thoughts are with all of you.
With much love,
Sharon Hare
