Albert Ray Snow, of Sandy, Utah, left this mortal life on February 17, 2012 after a courageous battle with Alzheimer's Disease and cancer, to reunite with his beloved wife, Irene, and two of his children, Julie and Benjamin.
Ray was born in Salt Lake City on February 25, 1933, to Jennie Rosella Mower and Richard Walter Snow. He grew up in Garfield, Utah and Los Angeles, California.
He married his sweetheart, Irene, in the Salt Lake Temple on October 6, 1952, and they were married for fifty-seven years.
Ray was very talented musically. He played the guitar, sang, and wrote many beautiful songs. He had a real talent for inventing things, and enjoyed working on his inventions. When he was young he was quite athletic and played various sports in school.
He always had a great love for the beauties of the earth and sky and would frequently comment on them. He loved to go to the temple, and was a temple worker for two years in the Jordan River Temple.
He worked as a salesman most of his life, and a bus driver for Jordan School District in his later years. Everyone loved Ray, and he loved everyone, especially his wife and family, who he was very devoted to.
He served in many capacities in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and had a strong and abiding testimony. He was a great teacher and a great speaker with his deep and loving voice. He was very social and had a fun-loving personality.
A beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, Ray is survived by his second wife, Diane; his children, Cindy (Fred), Mark (Angie), Scott (Jennifer), Bobbey, Julie's husband (Mark), and Ben's wife (Lorie); thirty-two grandchildren; and forty-nine great-grandchildren. He will be greatly missed by all. We love you, Dad!
