Death of Henry Snider

The old pioneers of this district are fast passing from the scene of action. Another one was laid away on Wednesday morning in the person of Henry S. Snider, who died on Monday morning. Deceased came to this part of the country when it was yet a wild waste of woodland. By hard work he cleared away the forest and became possessed of a fruitful and well-cultivated farm, besides securing farms for his sons. He was of a reserved and quiet disposition and seldom came to town during the last few years of his life. Death was due to old age -- the candle was burnt out. Deceased leaves a widow, three sons, namely Joshua living near Elora, Reuben on the Elias Eby farm, and Paul at home; four daughters, namely Katie married to Elias Bricker of Okotoka, Alberta, and Magdalena, Lavina and Angeline. The interment took place on Wednesday forenoon in presence of a large number of relatives, friends and neighbors.

Henry married Mary Ann Snyder 23 Dec 1851, Greenbush (Kitchener), Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada. Mary (daughter of Benjamin Snyder, Sr. and Catharine G.

The sad intelligence of the death of Miss Clara Bricker on Monday last of typhoid pneumonia cast a pall over the town and among the people of Norma, where the young lady was well known, the news came as a shock. About a fortnight ago the deceased was stricken with typhoid pneumonia and from the outset the case was considered serious but it was fondly hoped that she would rally. She suffered greatly and on Monday at 1 o'clock her spirit passed beyond the shadows. The deceased was a bright young lady and had a large circle of admiring friends who sincerely mourn the departure of a good friend and companion. A sad circumstance in connection with her untimely and is the fact that arrangements had been made complete for her marriage in June next to Mr. Luther Hicks of this town, who is grief stricken at the loss of his affianced. She was the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Bricker of Norma, and was in her 26^th year. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon, from the home of Mr. Dewey to Mount Pleasant Cemetery and was followed to the grave by a large concourse of people, who paid the last respects to the dead. The sympathy of the people generally is extended to the bereaved parents and relatives in their sore bereavement

They were my grandparents! They were both wonderful people! My grandfather was a man that lived life with high standards and morals. He was a very wise man who loved his family very much and believed in helping people when he could. My grandmother was the most maternal person and was the perfect model of a grandmother. She showed her love through her home cooked meals. I remember her showing up at my door on several occasions with chicken soup when I was sick. She had "cookie parties" with her granddaughter's and made fun "granny boxes" at Christmas. They were two of the finest people you would ever meet and have left us with fond memories and a standard of morals to withhold. They have been missed since their passing
