Born Dec. 8, 1942, in Loganton, he was a son of the late Woodrow and Maude (Washburn) Snook. He was one of 13 children.
Anyone who knew Ed learned quickly that he loved farming and all things International Harvester. He began farming when he was 15 years old on the family farm in Sugar Valley, then farmed for Doebler’s near Pine Creek. He operated O.K. Hog Farm in Antes Fort and crop farmed in the Nippenose Valley. For many years, Ed volunteered at the Lycoming and Clinton County fairs, and he organized the Antes Fort Historical Days. Ed also managed the Jersey Shore farm and flea market with his wife, Gerrie.
Ed was a member of the Antes Fort United Methodist Church, and he enjoyed fellowship with his church friends, as well as all other people he met in his life’s journey.
Ed is survived by his wife of 16 years, Geraldine Rice Stout Snook; daughters: Corinne Paulhamus (Martin) of Linden, and Kathy Martin (Randy) of Lebanon; grandchildren: Amanda Paulhamus (Greg Steppe) of Williamsport, and Andrew Paulhamus of North Carolina; stepchildren: Michele Schreck, John Brock, Jenny Lafty, Bill Stout, MaryAnn Lanks; and numerous step-grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his brothers: Kenneth, John, Bill and Joe; a sister, Lois McGarvey; and a sister-in-law, Iolene Snook.
In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by his infant son, Nicholas Paul; his siblings: Virginia, Lewis, Tommy, Elaine, Lucy; and stepdaughters: Suzan and Sheran.
