The community is grief-stricken by the tragic loss of Kenneth A. Snarey, aged 54, from Carnegie, Pennsylvania, who sadly passed away on the night of Thursday, November 20, 2025, as a result of a single-vehicle accident in Harrison County, Ohio. The news of Kenneth’s death has created an immense emptiness in the lives of everyone who knew him, serving as a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of life and the value of every single moment.
As reported by the Ohio State Highway Patrol, Kenneth was heading south on State Route 9 in Archer Township at approximately 10:46 p.m. when his car was unable to navigate a bend. His 2013 Ford Expedition veered off the right side of the road, became airborne, and collided with both a utility pole and a tree before rolling over. Despite the prompt action taken by emergency responders, Kenneth was sadly declared dead at the scene.
Various agencies responded to the incident, including the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office, Hopedale Fire and EMS, Cadiz Fire Department, Jewett Fire Department, Harrison County ODOT, Blackies Towing, and the Harrison County Coroner’s Office. Although their efforts could not alter the tragic outcome, they ensured that Kenneth was treated with respect and care during his final moments.
Even though the situation is profoundly sad, Kenneth’s life is cherished not for its conclusion, but for the love, joy, and warmth he imparted throughout his lifetime. He was a man whose compassion could ease the toughest day, whose humor could brighten any environment, and whose loyalty to his family and friends was unwavering. Those who had the privilege of knowing him will fondly remember his steady nature, his empathy, and the multitude of joyful moments he created for others.
In difficult times such as these, words often seem inadequate. However, love—profound, lasting, and steadfast—persists. Kenneth’s legacy continues in each life he impacted, every smile he prompted, and each story recounted by those who cherished him. While he may have departed from this existence, his memory will endure.
May his spirit find tranquil rest, and may his family and loved ones gain solace, strength, and healing in the days to come.
