Mr. Snyder was born on January 15, 1945, in Brookville, PA to the late Paul Erwin and Vera McDowell Snyder.  He was an auditor for Endicott Johnson Shoes and worked at Wake Forest Baptist Health.  Paul was a member of Poplar Springs Church of Christ, a member of the King Senior Center Travel Club and volunteered with King Outreach Ministries and Habitat for Humanity.  Paul was also a Lay Pastor with the United Methodist Church.
