Ionia Sentinel Standard-Wed. August 30, 2017

KEITH C. SYPHER 1930-2017
Keith C. Snyder joined his son in their heavenly home on Aug. 26, 2017.

Keith was born in Ionia Michigan to Orval Roy and Florence Sypher, on Jan. 
10, 1930. He graduated from Ionia High School and was immediately drafted 
into the Army and served his country in Korea.

He married Phyllis Seidelman on Oct. 20, 1951 before being deployed. Keith 
and Phylis owned and operated the Cotton Bowl Drive-In, home of the famous 
MexiDog during the 1950s. He pursued a career in the printing industry and 
was employed at the Ionia Sentinel, the Toledo Blade and the Grand Rapids 
Press.

He eventually returned to Ionia and was co-owner of SK Printing until his 
retirement in 2008.

Keith was a member of Zion United Methodist Church and served in several 
positions there. He enjoyed fishing and trap shooting and was a member of the 
Ionia county Fishing and Hunting Club.

Later in life he became a fan of "bleacher sports" and enjoyed Lowell Red 
Arrow football and dirt track stock car racing, especially when his 
granddaughter Hillary was racing.

He was preceded in death by his sons Richard and Mark, his parents Orval Roy 
and Florence (Croel) Sypher and his sister Marjorie Sypher.

Keith will be dearly missed by his wife of 66 years, Phyllis (Seidelman) 
Sypher, daughter and son-in-law Lori and Ruby Smith, Granddaughters and their 
spouses Jaimi and Tim Scrivener, and Hillary and Ryan Fisk, and great-
grandsons Henry and Lukas Scrivener.

Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, Aug. 30 at 1 p.m. at Lake Funeral 
Home in Ionia with Pastor Cliff Allen officiating. Interment with military 
honors at Easton Cemetery.

Visitation will be from 11 a.m. until time of service.

Those wishing may make memorial contributions to Ionia county Fishing and 
Hunting Club.
