Edward C. Sneeringer

YORK – Edward C. Sneeringer, 74, passed away Sunday, October 27, 2024 at Yorkview Nursing and Rehabilitation. He was the husband of Elizabeth J. (Galloway) Sneeringer to whom he was married for 53 years. 

A viewing will take place on Saturday, November 2, 2024 at Heffner Funeral Chapel & Crematory, Inc., 1551 Kenneth Rd., York, from 2-5:00 PM. Family and friends are encouraged to come and share their favorite memories of Eddie with the family. Inurnment at Susquehanna Memorial Gardens will take place at a later date. 

Born February 23, 1950 in York, he was a son of the late Charles E. and Fanny F. (Gangemi) Sneeringer. After high school, Mr. Sneeringer attended Millersville University. For most of his working life, he considered himself an entrepreneur, having owned a deli in his younger years and finally owning and managing a Rita’s Italian Ice. He was very proud of his job. Outside of his work life, he enjoyed bowling, playing cards, watching horse races, woodworking, tending to the koi fish in his pond, watching football and wrestling, having a glass of bourbon and a cigar, and putting puzzles together with his beloved bride. Eddie is remembered as a nice man, a sci-fi nerd, and a jokester- even if he was the only one laughing. 

In addition to his wife, he is survived by his two daughters, Cecily Sneeringer of York and Desiree Moore and her husband Tom of Jefferson Hills; two grandchildren, Jack and Abby Krysinski; a brother, Arthur Sharp and his wife Maria of Clarmont, California; and a sister, Sharon Sneeringer of York.
