Obituary

Sharon Snyder, 75, a beloved matriarch of Irving, Texas, passed away peacefully at the Vitas Hospice in Dallas, Texas, on March 6, 2025, after a remarkable life well lived.

Born on October 23, 1949, in Boston, Massachusetts, Sharon grew up in Oklahoma City and graduated from John Marshall High School in 1967.

Her life took a fulfilling turn when she met Russell Snyder while working at Dallas International Bank. Russell and Sharon were married in Euless, Texas, on March 27, 1981.

As a devoted mother, Sharon blessed the world with four extraordinary sons: Kelly, Jason, Jody, and Joseph. Her unwavering love and adoration for her sons, their spouses, their children, and their grandchildren were boundless.

Sharon's close-knit family extended beyond her immediate kin, including her sisters Carol and Brenda and her brother, Gary. She cherished her bond with her sister-in-law, Judy, and her brother-in-law, Andy.

While Sharon embraced the allure of adventure, she was also a diligent and hardworking individual. Her career in Logistics, Purchasing, and Asset Management at the NCR Corporation, Hitachi, and Nokia Networks spanned several decades. Her remarkable work ethic and ability to forge lasting friendships at work ensured that she remained connected even after retirement.

Sharon's passing is deeply felt, and she will be fondly remembered by her family, friends, and colleagues. Her unwavering support and kindness will continue to inspire generations to come.

Special gratitude extends to Sally, Mitch, Gail, Gary, John, Natalia, Clay, and others who consistently provided unwavering support and friendship to Sharon. Their presence in her life was invaluable, and she will forever be grateful for their unwavering love and care

Sharon Snyder, predeceased by her son Kelly, parents Malvern and Joy Bell Taylor, is survived by her husband Russell, children Jody and his wife Cathy, Jason and his wife Mandy, Joseph and his wife Celeste, grandchildren Madison, Regan, and Siara, grandson Benjamin, and great-granddaughter Blakely, and another grandchild on the way.
