O.L was born August 19, 1934 in Greensboro, the son of Odis Lee Snyder, Sr. and Beulah Kennedy Snyder.
O.L. was employed at the Greensboro Coliseum for over 25 years as a supervisor and worked many years at Hanes-Lineberry FH. He enjoyed woodworking and was an adventurous spirit, whether riding his Goldwing, hot air ballooning, zip lining or rafting, he was always up for a challenge. O.L was a former charter member of Sumner Baptist Church where he was a youth director, softball coach, Royal Ambassador Leader, Deacon and Bussin Buddies director, coordinating many trips with his church family. O.L will be remembered as a good son to his parents, giving them care at every stage in life, a good neighbor and a Christian man leading others to Christ. Most of all O.L. enjoyed being with his family.
In addition to his parents, O.L. was preceded in death by his daughter, Kathy Anderson; brother, Harrell “Frog” Snyder, and sister, Sarah Rathmell.
Those left to cherish his memory include his wife of 71 years, Mary Jane Snyder; sons, Randy Snyder (Patsy) of Greensboro and Mark Snyder of High Point; daughter, Marcia Weavil (Randy) of Kernersville; 8 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren.
