    Miss Reta Shantz

    Many friends were sorry to learn of the death of Miss Reta Shantz, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Josiah N. Shantz, of near Wilmot Centre, who passed away at St. Mary's Hospital, Kitchener, early last Thursday morning, January 12th, in her 25th year. She was taken ill about three months ago and as her condition did not improve she was taken to the hospital but all medical skill and nursing was of no avail.

    She is mourned by her parents and four sisters, Mrs. Roy Snyder, of Bloomingdale, and Misses Celia, Corella and Catherine, all at home, besides a large circle of other relatives and friends.

    The funeral was held last Saturday afternoon from the home of her parents to Latchar's Mennonite Church at Mannheim and was very largely attended. Interment was made in the adjoining cemetery.

    SNIDER, James H. James H. Snider died at home on the evening of November 7, 2016 surrounded by family. He was well cared for by CCAC Hamilton PSWs and VON nurses, Janice (Lambke), his loving wife of 57 years, and his four children; Judy Mitchell (Lee Stevens), Tim Snider (Joyce Richardson), Jennifer Dmytrus (Steve) and John Snider (Amanda). He is dearly loved by his eleven grandchildren. James Snider was the son of the late J. Stanley Snider and Erma Shantz Snider. Jim lived his faith through his actions. He was passionate about his family, surgery, farming and service to others. A loving father, he has always been supportive and proud of his children, all of whom have benefited from his love, intelligence, kindness and humour. Dr. Snider's professional life at Cambridge Memorial Hospital included stints as Chief of Surgery and Chief of Staff, where he enjoyed many enduring relationships with staff and patients. Service to others included building relationships through Refugee Sponsorships and medical work in Africa and Central America. Jim was a committed member of Wanner Mennonite Church where he served in many capacities, developing friendships with all ages. Jim loved to farm and found great joy in caring for his cattle and working his fields. Always a family affair, farming with him was an opportunity for children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews and friends to learn, grow and work together. He will be greatly missed. Visitation is on Friday, November 11 from 5-8 p.m. and Saturday, November 12 from 1-3 p.m. The Memorial Service will follow at 4: 30 p.m. All events will be held at Wanner Mennonite Church.
