When the Andrew Scheid Funeral Home in Millersville abruptly closed its doors, I needed to transfer my mother's prepaid funeral policy to another venue. I chose
The Charles F. Snyder Funeral Home and was very satisfied with the wonderful, compassionate help I received while planning my mother's funeral. I highly recommend The Snyder Funeral Home.

We recently stopped in without an appointment just to get some general information and pricing. My family is not ready to make an appointment to sit down and plan anything out at this time because it will make everything too real. My sister is battling addiction and we know that it is only a matter of time before services will be needed. Anyway not knowing what to expect we were greeted with a warm welcome and smile. The woman who was there, I believe her name was Charley, gave us a tour of the building and gave us information regarding your locations, services offered and what we could expect

Thank you for bringing us all together to celebrate and remember our loved ones. Caring, courtesy respect and compassion.

They helped create a wonderful memorial service for our family dog, Champ. Chad Snyder went out of his way to help us with this event and added many small personal touches that meant so much. They were very compassionate and caring. I highly recommend them.

I just left a viewing at Snyder's Millersville location and it was so beautiful and welcoming. The staff who greeted my mother and I were so helpful and informative. The Chapel was beautifully decorated and had wonderful flow for guests who were paying their condolences to the family. We had a wonderful experience as a guest.

On behalf of everyone on our family, we couldn't be more pleased with our recent experience with Snyder Funeral Home. Chad was our coordinator and from the moment we learned of our step mother's passing, he carefully and compassionately led our family through all of the steps and decisions that needed to be made. He and the rest of the Snyder team were extremely organized and all of the details were taken off of our hands which helped us to care for each other. The Snyder family is all hands on involved and you will sense how their family is here to take care of yours.
