Reba J. Snyder

Reba J. Snyder, 100, of Dover passed away on Sunday, January 18, 2026 in the New Dawn Retirement Center at Dover.

Reba was a dedicated and active member of Grace Lutheran Church, where her presence was felt in every corner of congregational life. She faithfully served on the Altar Guild, meticulously preparing the sanctuary for worship, and lent her wisdom to numerous committees, and gave her time as a Sunday School teacher throughout the years. Beyond the church walls, Reba was known for her incredible talent as a seamstress. She found great joy in her craft, most notably in the beautiful dresses she hand-sewed for the women in her family.
