Royal C Snyder "Roy" passed away on Friday the 13th, 2019. He died cutting hay and weeds on his tractor and was found the next day, from a heart attack. He died outside doing what he loved, as painful as that may sound. He was born on January 7, 1947, in Antlers, Colorado. Roy is survived by his two daughters, Stormy D Anderson and Carol Lee Snyder, sister Sharon Bistline, brother William P Snyder and sister Bonnie McKenzie. This July would have been his 50th wedding anniversary, however his wife Patricia Ann passed away two days before her birthday in April this year. Roy lived in Palisade, Colorado with his daughter Carol Lee. They attended Palisade Christian Church, where his memorial will be held Friday the 20th, 2019 at 11:30am. Roy lived on 23 acres outside of Palisade and enjoyed his horses, cows, and just plain being outside. He rodeoed as a younger man, and worked a lot of jobs, including the oil patch and truck driving. He enjoyed riding his Harley trike, shooting, roping, showing off his rope yo-yo, and telling great stories that sometimes made you wonder if they were the truth or tales. He was a kind and loving man, who touched a lot of lives. Please join us in saying a "temporary" good-bye to this faithful man this week. The church address is 3702 G Road (3673 Highway 6 across from Palisade High School). In Lieu of flowers, please donate to St. Jude's Research Center. Services have been entrusted to Jeff Gentry at Affordable Memorial Care.
