Industry morns the passing of Wayne Snodgrass
Fresh Produce and Floral Council have received the sad news that Wayne Snodgrass, of Loomis Distributing, Inc. and formerly Apio, Inc., has passed away. His oldest son, Kyle Snodgrass, wrote the following update:
To Wayne's treasured friends and connections, I regret to inform you that my dad, Wayne Snodgrass, passed away on August 31, 2021, after a hard-fought battle with Covid-19. He was 59 years old.
For all those that worked with Wayne, you know that he was a strong, caring, warm-hearted man. After graduating from Cal Poly SLO in 1985, he worked a successful 30-year career in produce sales at Apio, Inc. and, later, Loomis Distributing, Inc. Wayne cared for people deeply, and his sense of humor and fun-loving attitude brightened the lives of everyone around him. He is missed by many, including his wife Pam and their five children.
