Our Dads taught us funeral service.
Remember when your Dad taught you how to do something special? Something the two of you shared and perfected? Something no one else could do quite as well as you two could? Well, our dads taught us funeral service.
We still meet you at the door and hang your coat because some traditions are worth holding onto. Other traditions have evolved: our online tribute videos were never a part of Ora & Marion Snyder’s original service, but personal touches like photos have always been important.
The Snyder family has been honored to serve the families of North-Central Ohio for nearly a century. Founded in 1922, four generations of Snyders have gone above and beyond to provide comfort while creating meaningful tributes to honor and celebrate each unique life lived. Of course, much has changed over the past 98 years—and the funeral industry continues to evolve. With the passing of each season, we strive to stay on the cutting-edge of our industry and offer the latest and greatest technology, while continuing to provide superior services at reasonable prices. We invite you to visit one of our 13 beautiful facilities to discover what separates Snyder Funeral Homes from the rest.
