LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Dennis Snider was a retired Fire Captain with the Clark County Fire Department. Snider was part of an elite team in the 90s that helped start FEMA’s Nevada Search and Rescue task force. Snider also helped with 9/11 and the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Snider died on January 1, 2023, after a nearly 7-year battle with ALS. The disease caused him to be wheelchair-bound, with his health rapidly declining.
For 30 years, Dennis dedicated his life to the fire department. By his side, the entire journey, his wife Julie Snider says Dennis leaves behind a long line for firefighters.
A celebration of life will be held this Saturday, January 14, 2023, for Dennis Snider at the South Point Hotel Grand Ballroom B. 9777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89183.
Starting at 5:30 pm. The event is open to the public.
