CHARLES PINDER SNOW. In a comparatively brief span of years the late
Charles Pinder Snow lived a life of usefulness and prominence that have
made an indelible impress on the community and City of Huntington. He was
one of the most loyal friends of that city, and never neglected an
opportunity to advance its wholesome prosperity as represented in its
commercial, religious and social institutions.
Mr. Snow was born at Dayton, Ohio in 1872, and was fifty-three years of age
when called by death in October, 1925. He acquired his early education in
his native city and began work there in the offices of the Big Four
Railroad. Later he went to Lexington, Kentucky, and for two and half years
was in the service of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad Company, and for a
little more than two years was located at Ashland. Mr. Snow in 1905 was
transferred to Huntington, and continued with the Chesapeake & Ohio Company
there until 1911, when he resigned. He became associated with Mr. Prichard
in the organization of the Huntington Banking & Trust Company, and served
as vice president and cashier of that institution up to the time of his death.
Outside of the bank his two chief hobbies were the Chamber of Commerce and
his church. He served as president of the Chamber of Commerce six different
terms and was head of that body when he died. He was vice president of the
Foster-Thornburg Hardware Company. In the Presbyterian Church he was
president of the Men's Club and for five years president of the Bible
Class. He served two years as president of the Credit Men's Association and
for one year was president of the Huntington Clearing House Association. He
was a Republican in politics, and a Knight Templar Mason.

Covington, Kentucky. She survives her honored husband and resides at 347
Sixth Avenue, Huntington, and is a very active member of the Presbyterian
Church. her parents were Joseph and mary Brink. her mother died in
