Grover lived an "extraordinary life". He was in the car business, owning Snyder's Used Cars, for 32 years. At the age of 50, he started playing golf and immediately fell in love with the game. Over the years, he made 20 Holes-in One, many Eagles, and he was well known for his superb putting. Grover enjoyed his best days golfing with his buddies at various golf courses. He also enjoyed bird hunting, gardening, and watching Alabama football.

Grover was a great husband and father. He was the best "Pa" to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved his family whole heartedly and he will be a lot to miss!
