More Sad News

Just heard yesterday of the passing of Joe Snyder. I'm not sure how old he was, but I know he was a few years younger than I am. Apparently it was quite sudden.

I marched with all of the Snyder kids - Mary, John, and Jim in the Cadets 70-71 (John in the snare line with me), then John and Jim again, along with Joe, in 1978-79. And, of course, their Dad Dick taught the horn line of the Cadets for many years, including when my brother was in the line and Dad was the Cadet manager.

Life just isn't fair sometimes. Please keep all of them in your prayers in the coming days.

What did you do in the Corps? Snare; Drum Major; Drum Instructor/Arranger

What years were you a Corps member? 1970-73; 78-79
