BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS

Ann Shannon Snodgrass

As Jack practiced dentistry in Searcy for a number of years, maybe the following taken from the Jonesboro Sun would be of interest to the website readers. All I can add to it is that a private family memorial was held.

POCAHONTAS -- Dr. Jack Larry Snodgrass, 70, son of the late Joe and Anther Coleman Snodgrass, died Tuesday in Jonesboro.

A granddaughter, London Claire Frizzell; a brother, J.W. Snodgrass; and a sister, Betty Cook, preceded him in death.

He is survived by two sons, Kip Larry Snodgrass of Searcy and Jed Snodgrass of Las Vegas; daughter, Shara Frizzell of Fayetteville; granddaughter, Savannah Mercer of Fayetteville; two brothers, Ray Snodgrass of Pocahontas and Jim Snodgrass of Boise, Idaho.

The body was cremated with arrangements by McNabb Funeral Home.
