Almeeta Rose (McDonald) Snyder, age 88, of Little Orleans, Md., passed away on Sunday, June 27, 2021, at Doey’s House, in Hagerstown, Md.

Born December 13, 1932, in Little Orleans, Md, she was the daughter of the late John Richard McDonald and Bertie Louise McDonald. She was the widow of Stanley Ernest Snyder, her husband for 62 years, who passed away on January 6, 2012.

She was employed as a picker/packer for Hancock Orchard for several years.  She then became a stay-at-home mother and homemaker.

She was known as “Nanny” to all who knew her, and always asked if you were ready to “run around the block” or “go sled riding” with her.

She greatly enjoyed spending time with her family and her dog, Chris, and listening to Elvis music.

She is survived by two daughters, Robin Ann Conrad, of Artemas, Pa., and Pamela Louise McCarty and her husband, Richard, of Hampton, Va.; two sons, Douglas Ernest Snyder and his wife, Teresa L. (Johns), of Little Orleans, Md., and Tracey Leo Snyder, of Flintstone, Md.; a sister, Ruth Whorton of Flintstone, Md.; eleven grandchildren; and twenty great-grandchildren.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by a grandson, Larry Allen Conrad, Jr.; a son-in-law, Larry Allen Conrad, Sr.; a daughter-in-law, Launa (Weimer) Snyder; a special great-nephew, Christopher N. Robinette; a brother-in-law, Charles Whorton; and a brother, Harry Richard McDonald.
