Betty was born in Beatrice, Nebraska on October 12th, 1928 to Thomas M. & Agatha Lucille (Collier) Griffin.

Betty married Jake S. Snyder on September 15, 1956 in Casper, WY.
She began her career as a stenographer with the CPA firm Raab, Roush, and Gaymon in 1957. Because of her organizational abilities, she did not remain a stenographer for long. She remained with the company through many transitions and name changes and retired from McGladrey and Pullen as Office Administrator in 1993 after 35 years of dedicated service.
She was preceded in death by her parents; a sister, Lois Eloise Bourke; a brother, Richard D. Griffin; and her husband of 23 years, Jake S. Snyder.

She is also survived by a special friend, Deb King of Casper, WY. She enjoyed visiting her family and friends and was an active member of First Christian Church. She had a beautiful soprano voice and sang in the choir all of her life and later sang with The Meadowlarks through the Casper Senior Center.
In recent years Betty enjoyed living at Garden Square and all the activities that she participated in there. Her greatest pleasure was reading with the children at Sagewood Elementary. Betty will be missed and fondly remembered by her family, friends and all who knew her as a kind and generous woman.
