LONG BEACH, Wash. —
Bette Snyder, a leading citizen
of the Long Beach Peninsula
who was well known through-
out Washington state, died last
Thursday , just shy of her 94th
birthday.
She was mentally sharp and
enjoyed life right up to the end,
her children reported.
Her funeral is this Satur-
day at noon at the Peninsula
Church Center, with a reception
to follow.
Wife of the late Sid Snyder,
majority leader of the Wash-
ington State Senate, Bette Sny-
der was famous for her friendly
manner, political instincts and
wickedly humorous poetry that
often poked gentle fun of Sid
and other public fi gures. Along
with her husband, she epito-
mized a generation of state lead-
ers who avoided rancor and built
connections between people of
differing ideologies.
News of her death rapidly
spread via social media last
week, generating a fl ood of con-
