Brent Snyder, Ocoee, FL — The community is mourning the loss of Brent Snyder, who passed away on July 20, 2024, due to complications from COVID-19 and post-COVID pneumonia, which severely affected his transplanted lungs. He was 35 years old. Brent was a devoted husband to his wife, Tina, and a loving father to their 8-month-old son, Barrett.
Brent’s life was marked by his battle with Cystic Fibrosis, a condition he was diagnosed with at just six months old. Despite the grim prognosis that he wouldn’t live to see his teenage years, Brent defied the odds. His journey included a double lung transplant in 2012, and after experiencing organ rejection, a second double lung transplant in 2019.
Brent’s health struggles intensified when he, Tina, and Barrett contracted COVID-19 late last year. Brent’s condition worsened, leading to post-COVID pneumonia and a three-month hospitalization. Despite his efforts to recover, including working to regain his ability to walk, his health continued to decline.
Now, Tina faces the daunting challenge of raising Barrett alone and managing the financial burdens left in the wake of Brent’s passing. Cassie Snyder, Brent’s mother, has organized a GoFundMe fundraiser to support Tina and Barrett. The fundraiser aims to raise $30,000 to cover expenses such as rent, bills, and car repairs. As of now, $200 has been raised from a single generous donor, Perry Aulie.
The community has shown an outpouring of support through heartfelt Facebook messages. Cassie Crymes Snyder, Kristi Kiser-Hohler, and many others have shared their condolences and offered assistance. Cassie Snyder expressed her gratitude for the prayers, kind words, and support, urging others to share and contribute to the fundraiser.
Brent’s memory will live on through the love he shared with his family and the indomitable spirit he exhibited throughout his life. The Ocoee community continues to rally around Tina and Barrett during this difficult time, offering their support and compassion.
