The Tampa, Florida, community and the Southern Steer Butcher family are mourning the passing of Greg Robert Snyder, whose life was defined by his love for family, friendship, and the meaningful connections he built with those around him. Greg passed away on June 10, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, passion, and generosity that will be remembered by all who knew him.
A heartfelt tribute shared by his former spouse reflected the deep respect and gratitude they continued to share after more than 20 years of marriage. Together, they raised their beloved children, Nicklaus and Kyrsten, whom Greg loved unconditionally and was immensely proud of. His greatest joy came from watching them grow into the remarkable people they became, and his devotion to them remained at the center of his life.
Greg was known for embracing life with enthusiasm. Whether spending time with family, supporting Southern Steer Butcher, enjoying a round of golf, skiing, attending live music events, or simply meeting new people, he had a remarkable ability to make lasting friendships wherever he went. His warm personality, easy smile, and genuine interest in others left an unforgettable impression on everyone fortunate enough to cross his path.
Within the Southern Steer Butcher community, Greg was admired not only for his dedication to the business but also for the relationships he cultivated with colleagues, customers, and friends. He believed in bringing people together and creating a sense of community that extended far beyond the workplace.
Family and friends continue to share stories celebrating Greg’s adventurous spirit, generous heart, and love for life’s simple joys. For many, hearing the classic song Brown Eyed Girl will forever serve as a reminder of the memories, laughter, and moments they shared with him throughout the years.
