Obituary For Jennifer Linsley Snell

Jennifer Linsley Snell of Raleigh passed away unexpectedly of natural causes on September 11, 2020. Jennifer was the daughter of Jere R. Snell and Sharon Bounds Snell of Raleigh.

She attended Wake County Public Schools and graduated from Millbrook High School, class of 1987. Jennifer attended East Carolina University where she was a member of the Chi Omega Sorority. In 1991, she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree. She earned her Master’s degree in Computer Science from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. Her professional career led her to Atlanta, New York, Boston -and then back to her beloved city of Raleigh. For the last few years, she was a business analyst with the Department of Veterans Affairs, a job she found very fulfilling.

A generous, vibrant person who touched the lives of many, Jennifer lived life to the fullest. She had a great sense of humor and loved to laugh. She enjoyed her travels to Europe, Hawaii, and the Caribbean. Her favorite trips were with her family to Maine, Williamsburg, and the beaches and mountains of North Carolina.

Jennifer’s deep and abiding faith and love for the Lord Jesus carried her well through life. She was gifted with grace, compassion, honesty, and loyalty. She will be remembered for her devotion to her long and lasting friendships and to her family. Jennifer will never be far from us.

Jennifer was predeceased by her grandparents, Burrill and Katherine Snell of Hallowell, Maine and Nelson and Thelma Bounds of Jacksontown, Ohio; her aunt, Julie L. Bounds of Raleigh, North Carolina and uncle, Stephen H. Snell of Alexandria, Virginia; and her cousin, Walter Curtis II of Maine. She is survived by her parents and sister, Amanda Snell Sandri and husband Winston Sandri, nephews Brett(13) and Brady(11) Sandri of Raleigh; Anna Snell Curtis, aunt, and uncle Jim Curtis; Wendy Morgan and Rebecca Cote, first cousins, all of Maine.

Due to Covid restrictions, a small, limited family service was held in the Memorial Gardens at Saint Andrews.

    To Jennifer's family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have such fun, fond memories of Jennifer. Years ago, we used to play golf almost every day(!) at Heritage in Wake Forest. The laughter, smiles, and friendship will always hold a special place in my heart. She is a good soul and will be missed.

    Jen was such a sweet, kind spirit. Her smile lit up the room, and your heart. She and I knew each other in high school both as friends and in dating. In fact, she had been my first girlfriend. I offer my love and sympathy Mandy, and Mr. and Mrs. Snell.

    There are no words to describe the loss our family is feeling. Jenn was such an important part of our family. She truly loved unconditionally and made each one of us feel special. Our lives will be forever changed but our hearts will be forever grateful to have had her in our lives. Please know that we are here for you Uncle Jere, Aunt Sharon, Mandy, Winston and of course, "the boys"., whom she cherished as she did all of her family. Much love and many prayers for the strength you now need. -Becky and family.
