Dr. Jane Carol Snyder ED.D

It's with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Jane Carol Daily Snyder, ED.D, on March 17, 2024, after a long illness. She is survived by two children, David W. Snyder (Brooke) and Mary Jane Snyder, and two grandchildren, Paxton Snyder and Austin Schoene.

Jane Snyder was born December 27, 1942, in Akron, Ohio, the daughter of Roy Thomas Daily and Harriett Fenneman Daily. She was preceded in death by her brother, Thomas Daily and sister, Bette Daily.

Jane was a third-generation educator and went on to have a fifty-year career in education. After graduating from Ohio State, she went on to teach English in Ohio, Connecticut, and Missouri. She was a guidance counselor in Webster Groves, Missouri, before becoming a program director for the US Small Business Administration (Veterans Entrepreneurial Training) and the U.S. Department of Education (Workplace Literacy). From 1995 until her retirement in 2014, Dr. Snyder was the Director of the Kinkel Center of Academic Resources and an Associate Professor of Behavioral Studies of Fontbonne University in Clayton, Missouri.

Jane had an amazing sense of humor, was the best story teller, and had a great impact on many students over the years. She was a wonderful mother and grandmother and will be missed dearly by her friends and family.
