They fashioned Snow White a glass coffin and because she was so beautiful they could not find it in their hearts to bury her.

After her beloved Prince Charming woke her, they remained allies with the two. They run the converted mines used as a prison for Rumplestiltskin. Their Storybrooke counterparts have jobs throughout the town. Leroy and Walter (Grumpy and Sleepy) work at the hospital as a janitor and a security officer, respectively.
