Surprisingly, he went peacefully in his sleep out at his "Tin Can" in Graham, TX. His survivors had all expected him to go in a much more dramatic affair ? wagon wreck, horse accident, etc. Those survivors feeling blessed of his way of passing are Monte Snow & wife, Tiffany living in Loving, TX with the only two grandchildren ? Hunter McDonald & Ms. Lil Haven Snow, Sister's Peggy Snow of Loving, Linda Crayton & husband Daniel of Farmer, brother's Don Snow & Wife Marsha of Graham, & Tommy Snow of Troy and several cousins, nieces, & nephews., not to mention many many dear friends. The legend of Haven Snow began January 4, 1941 in Electra, Texas by Valda Edith Norman & Furney Thomas Snow. Haven's legendary life included being a proud track star and graduate of Graham High School, serving the United States Army in the Korean War, retiring as the Scales Inspector for the great State of Texas, being a baptized member of Loving Baptist Church, riding with the Sherriff's Posse, and infamous chuck wagon cook with the American Chuck Wagon Association.
