Lester Allen Snapp, 86, husband of Cleoda Miller Snapp, passed away Sunday, September 25, 2016 at Harrison Memorial Hospital.

Born November 3, 1929 in Nicholas County to the late Cambridge & Mina Ritchie Snapp, he was a U.S. Army Veteran of the Korean War, a lifelong carpenter and farmer and member of the Carlisle United Methodist Church. Lester greatly enjoyed being outdoors, from hunting and fishing to spending time in the garden; he had a true "green thumb" and could grow just about anything.

Also surviving are a daughter, Vicki Snapp Hatfield, of Carlisle, a brother-in-law, Clyde Miller, of Cynthiana, and several nieces and nephews. He was a beloved "Pawie" to Michael "Red" & Amy Bowles and their children, Jake, Kenzie & Keylee.

He was also preceded in death by 3 brothers: Ernest, Raymond C. & Robert Spencer Snapp, and a sister, Relma Ruth Snapp Miller.

Services will be 2:00 P.M. Thursday, September 29, 2016 at Mathers-Gaunce Funeral Home by Bro. Jim Caswell. Burial with Military Honors will follow in Barterville Cemetery.
