Wanda Snyder Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Mercer-Adams Funeral Service on Mar. 15, 2024.
Wanda Jo Snyder, 94, went to be with her Lord on March 12, 2024, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. She was born October 14, 1929, near Wayne, Oklahoma to James Olen and Dee Nell (Owens) Northcutt. She was raised in the area. In 1944 she met a Marine, LaMar C. Snyder. They were married in Shawnee, Oklahoma on May 24, 1946. The marriage lasted almost 64 years until LaMar died in 2010.
LaMar and Wanda lived in Shawnee, Oklahoma and Enid, Oklahoma before moving to their home in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1955, where they raised their three children and lived out their lives.
Wanda was employed by the ESEO Federal Credit Union (now OKCU). She retired from there in 1991. Her interests included creating beautiful quilts, church activities, and spending time with family and friends.
Wanda served the Lord at Mayfair Baptist Church in Oklahoma City before joining the First Baptist Church of Bethany in 2000. She was active in church as long as she was physically able. She loved God, her family, her church family and her many friends. She was caring, giving and warm-hearted. She made friends easily. Wanda was a wonderful Christian wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. She will be greatly missed.
Wanda was preceded in death by her parents; husband; son, Gary Don Snyder; sisters, Owedia Payne, Geraldine Payne and Louise Fouche; and many other extended family members.
Her survivors include her daughter, Kathy Wyche of Bethany, OK; son, Bruce (Suzanne) Snyder of Sugar Grove, IL; granddaughters, Christy (Ted) Alben of CA, Tarryn Cashwell of IL, and Sarah Baker of OK; grandsons, Trey (Alyssa) Snyder of TN and Trenton (Maddie) Snyder of IL; great-granddaughters, Abby Alben, Allison Alben, Rachel Alben, Kaelyn Wallace and Emma Baker; great-grandsons, Ryan Wallace, Cole Snyder, Connor Cashwell; and several nieces, nephews and friends.
