Steve is my sweet oldest son who passed long before his time.  He was an inspiration to me , his brother Kerry Reed Snyder and many more people besides his family members.  I miss  him and the kindness and help he gave to Kerry, his brother,  in helping Kerry get a new car that was fixed to accommodate Kerry’s 
handicap  .  Steve , you were such a wonderful son and brother, father and husband to Barbara and family .I have no doubt that you are in God’s
holy heaven with the other angels.   Mom
.

Steve was my first born son.  He was such an pleasure and fun to raise..   We had a lot of fun hiking and camping together  with Kerry.  I know he’s in heaven as a wonderful angel.  I miss you and love you bigly.  Mom

As the former Assistant to the City Manager with the City of Santa Ana, CA, I had the pleasure of working closely with Steve Snyder for over 15 years.  Steve was one of the kindest and most professional Santa Ana/OCFA Fire Captains I ever worked alongside.  Steve operated the City of Santa Ana Emergency Operations Center and as a result worked closely with the City Manager's Office to ensure the safety and well being of the entire community.  Steve was genuinely a "Nice Guy".

May God bless him and his family!

I am so very appreciative of Steve who served as a mentor to so many, including myself.  Hugs to Barbara and the family!

I love you with all my heart ...until we meet again  rest in peace Steve

Your kid brother, Kerry

Last Thursday evening Steve and a handful of other members of our train club were having dinner.  Another member, John Parker is also a retired firefighter.  He and Steve were sharing stories, talking about their experiences and keeping us all in stitches most of the night.  Steve also spent a good deal of time talking about his family and how proud he was of them. He told us about his wife becoming a Paramedic.  He talked about how they made the move to Texas to be closer to the kids.  I always kidded Steve about his Jeep and how we men simply buy bigger & more expensive toys as we grow up, but we never stop playing with toys!  

We talked about military service and being a firefighter.  We talked about 9/11 and the brave men & women of FDNY.  Steve told us about how when he went to NYC the FDNY wanted their own to work the piles so Steve & other volunteers from around the country worked their shifts so they could work the rubble.  Steve was always smiling, always helping/serving and always a pleasure to be around and will truly be missed by many.
