In Remembrance Of Harold Snider
Harold Samuel Snider was born on July 30, 1918, the only child of Hannah Weber and Herbert Snider. He grew up on a farm on Erb Street in Waterloo.
Harold helped in all parts of the farming operation, working with his parents and other "freundschaft". As he grew older he particularly enjoyed working in the community Beef Ring which helped to build his interest in the meat business later in life. As an only child, an important part of Harold's life was visiting with many cousins in the Waterloo and Markham area.
In July 1941 he married Eileen Snyder and they lived with his parents on the farm in Waterloo for 3 years. Five weeks after their wedding Harold was sent to Montreal River Camp as part of the Conscientious Objector Program where he worked on construction of the Trans Canada Highway.
In 1944, Harold and Eileen purchased the farm in Breslau where they operated a dairy and mixed farming operation. During this time Harold did some trucking for a local transport company. It was also at this time that Harold
continued to develop his interest in the meat business by doing custom butchering for his neighbours. He build his first shop in 1952 where he did slaughtering and processing. Harold's enjoyment and pursuit of the meat
business continued until it replaced farming on a full time basis in 1970.
A committed Christian and believer in the work of the Mennonite Central Committee, Harold began a very practical expression of his faith by making pork sausage for the Mennonite Relief Sale in 1967. This commitment continued for the rest of his life.
Some of Harold's other interests included singing in a men's octette at Breslau Mennonite Church where he was also choristor for many years. He enjoyed playing crokinole in the Preston Crokinole Club and served on the board of Fairview Mennonite Home for 9 years. More recently he enjoyed hosting the yearly butchering bee at the Joseph Schneider Haus in Kitchener.
Finally, Harld and Eileen fully appreciated the many occasions they shared with their family - Glenn and Carolyn Snider and their children Matthew and Rachel, Lucas , Hannah and Cody; Mary and Ken Martin and their children Philip and Krista, Justin and Nicholas; Robert and Brenda Snider and their children Benjamin, Andrew and Meghan.
