Robert Wade Snouffer III, lovingly known as Bobby, passed away peacefully yet unexpectedly on March 24, 2025, surrounded by his family at Mercy Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Born in Mariemont, Ohio, and raised in New Richmond, Bobby was the beloved son of Robert W. Snouffer, Jr., and Rena Snouffer. He is also survived by his sisters, Sarah and Marianne, and his precious nephew, Ryan.
Bobby shared an unbreakable bond with his father—they were best friends. Their time together was filled with sports, fishing trips, golf outings, and vacations. A talented basketball player, Bobby played throughout high school and college, and the game remained a lifelong passion that he and his father deeply connected over.
In 2016, Bobby moved to Worthington, Ohio, where he worked in IT and Telecommunications as Project Manager for Widepoint Corporation. The move held special significance, tying him to his family’s history in the area. He was an avid sports fan, always cheering for the Bengals, Reds, and his University of Cincinnati Bearcats. His adventurous spirit led him to master chess, experiment with new flavors in the kitchen, and develop a true passion for grilling. Not only did he love it, but he was exceptionally skilled at it, turning every meal into something special.
Bobby also had a deep love for fishing, especially deep-sea and shark fishing, which took him to some of the most exciting waters across the country. Whether casting in the Florida Keys or Montana’s Clark Fork River, fishing was one of his greatest joys.
Loyal companions Blue and Buddy, his golden retrievers, were always by his side, bringing him joy and companionship.
Bobby’s warmth, humor, and passion for life will be deeply missed.
A private service will be held at the convenience of the family. Memorial contributions may be made in Robert’s name to the National Kidney Foundation.
