Devore-Snyder Funeral Home

History

Established in 1922.

A Century of Superior Funeral Care

The Snyder family has proudly served the families of North-​Central Ohio for nearly a century. Since our funeral home was founded in 1922, four generations of Snyders have gone above and beyond to comfort the living while creating meaningful tributes to honor and celebrate each unique life lived.

Of course, times have changed quite a bit over the past 90 years – and the funeral industry continues to evolve. With the passing of each season, we strive to stay on the cutting-​edge of our industry and offer the latest and greatest technology, while continuing to provide superior services at reasonable prices. We invite you to visit one of our 15 beautiful facilities to discover what separates Snyder Funeral Homes from the rest.
