Centerville The Richmond Palladium And Sun-Telegram, Richmond, IN - September 25, 1907 OBITUARY OF JOHN M. SNYDER John M., son of Michael and Nancy Snyder was born Dec. 19, 1821, near Brownsville, Union county, Ind., and departed this life Aug. 31, 1907 after a lingering illness at his country residence four miles south of Centerville aged 85 years, 8 months, and 14 days. He was one of a family of eleven children. Eight of this number having passed away, their now remains one brother, M. H. Snyder of Indianapolis and a sister, Mrs. Ozias Mason of Dublin. About the age of fifty he united with the Christian church at Abington, and although not able to attend services for a number of years, he ever clung to the faith. On Dec. 8, 1844, he was united in marriage to Mary A. Thomas, of Fayette county. To this union was born a son and two daughters - Oliver T., of Sharpsville, Ind.; Mary M., wife of Spencer Stevens, and Mattie C., the youngest, and constant companion of her father, who all survive him. The beloved wife and mother having preceded him some eleven years. He leaves behind a host of sorrowing relatives and friends, who all remember his sterling integrity and never failing friendship. The devout Christian and a firm believer in his Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ, and who never failed to bear His cross. As I write, my memories wander back: To the scenes of long ago, How we gathered at the fireside And sang the songs so dear. But that circle Alas! is broken. Broken ne'er to meet again, For both are now sleeping In the church yard on the hill. On Tuesday, September 3 at 10 o'clock a.m. amid a large concourse of friends we followed his remains to Locust Grove church where services were conducted by Elder Roy Brown of Bellefontaine, Ohio. He was afterward laid to rest in the cemetery adjoining. Father is gone, but the memory of his good deeds and gentle admonitions will remain with us forever. "We miss thee when the evening shades Creep slowly o'er the dell, Yes, we miss thee when the daylight fades, How much we never can tell. At night we dream thou art with us, We awake to find thee gone. Thine absence is a truth we see, When first arrives the dawn." We thank the neighbors and friends for their kindness during the sickness and death of our beloved father, the members of the choir also, Undertaker Wright, his own selection. M. C. S.
