Elayne Snyder Obituary
Elayne Snyder (Thrift) age 71, died peacefully April 28, 2021 with her husband, daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren
at her side.
Survived by husband, Dennis R. Snyder, daughter, Autumn Kelli Snyder-Wade and will be missed by son-in-law, Darin Wade, sister-in-law and brother-in-law Judy and Charlie Wingate, granddaughter, Mackenzie Wade, grandson and finance, Hunter Wade and Thao Vo, as well as many other special family members and friends. She was a long time proud resident of Albuquerque, NM and a 1968 Manzano High Monarch graduate! Elayne Snyder was the definition of "extra!" She wanted to spoil everyone, share her blessings with those less fortunate, and share the good news of the Bible. She was a cat lover, an accomplished singer/entertainer, and was the biggest fan of her daughter and grandkid's endeavors. As high school sweet-hearts, she and her husband, Dennis Snyder were married for 52 years and were the definition of soul mates. She will be greatly missed by her family, friends, and all who knew her.
A memorial service is scheduled for 11:00am on May5, 2021 at Sagebrush Church (Riverside Location). Pastor Todd Cook will officiate. Donations can be made to the Alzheimer's Association, New Mexico Chapter.
