Tommy Snyder of Goodrich, TX departed this life in the place he loved most, The house at the Lake.  He was content and happy to be with Margaret and the family all of his days, especially the last ones.  

 He retired as a pipefitter from Brown and Root in 2001 but never gave into sickness or bad times.  He rode bikes, and trikes and gave orders until the absolute end. He joined the Odd Fellows on April 29, 1971, and remained a faithful member until his death.  He also was a member of the Rebecca Lodge.

Everyone will miss his presence.

Tommy is survived by his wife, Margaret, and their children: Rebecca (Becky) Warren of Baytown, TX, Machelle Snyder of Wallace, TX, and Rebecca Snyder of Houston, TX. Tommy was blessed with 4 grandchildren: Ashley, Tommy W, Heather, and Sabrina; 19 great-grandchildren; brother-in-law, Robert E Wright of Livingston, TX, Kelly Brothers of Goodrich and sister-in-law, Pat Conklin of Livingston, TX, many nieces and nephews as many friends over the Country.  

 

 

Life

I Enjoyed my life, it was fun;

The things I said, things I done!

Some was big, some was little;

At times it was like a riddle.

 

Doing the things, that had to be done;

Standing still or on the run!

Making sure the things I say;

Offends no one along the way.

 

With Him, I’ll have no sorrow;

Here today, gone tomorrow.

Days so long, time so short!

I often wonder, where did it start?

 

My life has come, and it has gone!

God’s will has been done.

No regrets have I, but one!

The regret is, I have no son.
