Michael Snider

Michael Shawn Snider was a beloved son, brother, uncle, friend, husband, bonus father, and new "poppa" (grandfather). An avid Saints fan, his sense of humor was endless, and his personality was animated and youthful. He could often be found playing air guitar at an intersection or asking for reviews on the latest albums of his favorite bands or movies.

It's no surprise to me that even in death, he chose to help someone else—his heart was as big as his personality.

To know Michael Shawn was to know laughter, friendship, and love—a love that will exist beyond this lifetime.
