Description:
"To me, because he resented the urbanization of Brecksville, Uncle Harry Snow personified the older farm existence. He indicated to me the extent to which he was affected by the changing environment, and how much a part of it he had once been... but clearly he felt these urges keenly, and had he had not been interested in preserving them, much family and neighborhood tradition would have been lost. Seeing his tall figure moving in some far field or sitting on his side steps was a fitting detail; and when one arrived at the farm, his greeting was like a burst of fresh air." - Out in Brecksville
