He was the first National Achievement Scholarship winner in the state of Wisconsin. He used that scholarship to pursue a Bachelor of Science degree as a Math major at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He went on to earn his MBA from the University of Chicago. Not only was Snow a scholar, he was also an athlete. He wrestled in high school in the 105-pound weight class and played basketball in high school and college. During his graduate years at U of C he took up golf which soon became one of his passions. He was married to Kathleen (Mays) and they celebrated 50 years of marriage on August 1, 2020. They were blessed with two sons Brian Anthony and Gregory Andrew.Snow loved numbers, teaching, coaching, people, and the Lord. These loves helped fuel his life work as a high school math teacher, bank president, project manager, prison ministry administrator, church financial officer. He felt that each step, although quite different than the one before it, prepared him for the next step on his career path. Romans 8:28 says "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."�Before moving to Georgia, Snow accepted Christ at a young age and was a member of St. Mark AME Church where he served as a Junior Steward.
