SNYDER. - On the 23d of Oct. 1900, in Wilmot Twp., Ont., Bro. John K. Snyder, aged 63 years, 11 months and 17 days. We trust that according to his desire he went home to his resting place "to die no more." He suffered with Bright's disease over a year. Sometimes he had much pain, but was not confined to his home long. He was present at our recent communion meeting not long before his death, thus expressing his faith in the great atonement accomplished by the death and suffering of our Lord. He was married to Veronica Shantz, Mar. 26, 1861. To this union were born eleven children, one of whom died in infancy. He leaves a widow, ten children and eleven grandchildren. Buried at Shantz's grave yard, in Wilmot, Oct. 25th, 1900, followed by a large concourse of friends to his last resting place. Funeral services were conducted at the house by A. S. Cressman and by Joseph Nargang at the grave. In the meeting house the services were conducted by Orphan Wismer in English, from I Pet. 1: 24, 25, and in German by Noah Stauffer from 2 Cor. 5: 1.

New Schmidt Woods trail now open in Wilmot

Wilmot residents now have a new three-kilometre trail to walk, hike and cycle on - and with winter edging closer, it will soon be open to snowmobilers, too.

The Schmidt Woods trail opened Oct. 5, and runs from the northwest corner of the Wilmot Recreation Complex (at the Nafziger Road entrance) to the east end of the property, eventually connecting paved bike lanes at Gingerich Road.

About two kilometres of the trail has a compacted stone dust multi-purpose surface. The remaining kilometre is a natural ground hiking trail, which leads through the forest surrounding the Rec Complex.

The lands for the trails were donated to Wilmot Township by the Schmidt Estate as a tribute to the memory of Harold and Enid Schmidt's contributions to both Baden and the township.

The $257,000 construction, funded in part through the CIP 150 grant program, ended up costing less than anticipated.

A full trail map can be found on the township's website, www.wilmot.ca.

Over a period of more than fifty years, Jerry worked in the poultry business building Bray Chicks of Hagersville and later raising hatching egg chickens and broiler chickens on the family farm. Over the years he participated in community service clubs such as the Kinsmen and the Lions, but he was most committed to the Knights of Columbus where he was a 4th Degree Knight. He was an enthusiastic supporter of the Roman Catholic Church and Separate school system tirelessly working to raise money for the new St. Mary's Church and School in Hagersville. He enjoyed his years on the Roman Catholic School Board, some of it as the Chairman. He sat on the Land-Use Planning Committee, a precursor to the current municipal zoning bodies. Among many other volunteer activities he was also well known as a driver for local cancer patients.

Myrtle was a driving force in the community life, Sunday School teacher at Shantz Mennonite Church, custom swathing for neighbours, involved in Snyder Transport, one of the first lady school bus drivers in the area (drove to age 70). She loved her Mennonite Relief Sale crepe rosettes booth, and other charities. New Hamburg Fall Fair, Queen of the Fair. Myrtle was a very busy and hardworking lady as all that knew her came to know.

Obituary of Peter Snyder

Peter Etril Snyder, 73, died on Monday August 28, 2017 at Grand River Health Centre, King St W, Kitchener where he was born January 28, 1944.

He is survived by Marilyn (nee Snyder), his wife for 50 years, and by his brothers, twins, Donald A (Katherine) and their daughter Cynthia (Kent Weber) and their son, Spencer; Douglas Noah (Dorene) and his daughters Julie (Russel Snyder-Penner) and their daughters Vanessa and Saskia; Jane (Karl Kessler) and their sons John and Thomas. Also survived by brother-in-law Donald Wayne Snyder and his fiancé Doreen Shantz and his son Jeff (Kelli Callaghan) and their sons Aidan and Darcy, and his daughter-in-law Lee Randall (Etienne Paquin) and her daughter Kate; brother-in-law Richard Snyder (Cathy) and sister-in-law June White (Michael) and her daughters Laura Johnson (Colin) and their son Joe; and Lindsay Taberner (Dave) and their sons Ben, and twins Noah and Brady.

Predeceased by his parents, Etril and Alice Snyder, his mother and father-in-law Wayne and Lovina Snyder and sisters-in-law Doreen Snyder, Nancy Martin and Marilyn Snyder and son, our beloved nephew, Scott Snyder.

At Pete's request, there will be no service. Visitation will be held at the Erb & Good Family Funeral Home, 171 King St S, Waterloo, on Friday, September 1st from 2-5 pm and 7-9 pm.

We both loved flowers, so send away if that is your wish. Charities Pete supported whole-heartedly include KidsAbility and Mennonite Central Committee. Contributions may be made at the funeral home www.erbgood.com or by calling 519-745-8445.

After study at Ontario College of Art, Toronto, Pete painted Waterloo County images for more than fifty years. He enjoyed his time at the easel and talking to his Old Order Mennonite friends and acquaintances, and was pleased to meet those who came to view his work and, especially, those who chose to hang it in their homes and businesses. Pete got especially energized while discussing commission paintings with the ordering executives. Some of those relationships went beyond strict business. He was overwhelmed by the community support he received and humbled by the community awards generously bestowed.

It was a charmed life, exactly suited to this gregarious man, highlighted by his sense of humour and interest in this world of ours. Travel expanded his horizons and sometimes destinations appeared in his paintings.

I feel fortunate to have been his partner in inventing a way of life. I will always miss his optimistic outlook which I have admired since I first laid eyes on him when I was thirteen. He will always be in my mind and heart.

Grateful thanks to Dr. Janet MacEachern and the Grand River Cancer Centre. All whom Pete met there interested him and made him many new friends Susan, Dorothy, Julie and Corinna especially, and many others. I expect you know who you are. You did your best to conquer his leukemia but a cure is still pending.
