He passed away in his home in University Place, WA, surrounded by family. Harry was born and raised in Waterville, WA, where he graduated from high school as Salutatorian in 1974. He was an outstanding athlete; all-league in football, baseball and basketball. He was a member of the Waterville Federated Church. He attended Wenatchee Valley College, while working for the Waterville Grange Supply and driving school bus for special events. In 1977, he moved to Western Washington and started working in the office furniture industry. In 1982, he started his own business (H. Snyder & Associates, NW Systems Installation, Inc.), which God blessed for 15 years. His brother, Tom, was a partner in the business. They had a very close working relationship with Business Interiors Northwest, to whom they sold their business in 1997. In 1983, he married his loving wife and best friend, Paula. Harry and Paula were opposites, which made a great team. God blessed them with a son, Alexander, and a daughter, Elizabeth. Their son, Alex, who was born with severe disabilities, died at age three, which caused Harry to more fully commit his life to Christ. In 2000, Harry made a career change and became an Assistant Golf Professional at Fircrest Golf Club, working in the pro shop and teaching lessons. He truly enjoyed assisting members, working with the junior golf program and the ladies' golf groups, and helping with poker tournaments. Harry's passions were his faith, family, friends and fishing. He enjoyed golf, animals (especially his wiener dogs), Texas Hold ‘Em, cribbage with his father-in-law and cooking for large groups like the church youth group. He had a great sense of humor; telling stories, cracking jokes and giving everyone nicknames. Harry was a natural leader, a take-charge person who saw what needed to be done and did it. He had a knack for organizing any activity. Harry was a very generous and giving person. He was involved in Children's Therapy Center of Kent, Run to Win Outreach, Federal Way Church of the Nazarene and Sunset Bible Church. Two highlights in the past year were meeting Jack Nicklaus and playing in the Senior Event at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, where he placed 190th out of over 3,000 entrants. Harry was preceded in death by his brother, Dennis; sister, Barbara; son, Alexander; and father, Howard Snyder. Harry is survived by his wife of 26 years, Paula; daughter, Elizabeth (Michael) Hood; mother, Gertrude Snyder of Waterville; brother, Tom (Sandy) Snyder of Camano Island; brother, Dale (Adele) Snyder of Waterville; best friend, Bob "Boot" Hill of Auburn; many nieces and nephews and a large extended family. Two Memorial Services will be held — one on Saturday, September 18, 2010, at 11:30 a.m. at the Waterville Federated Church, followed by a lunch; and one on Saturday, October 9, 2010, at 1:00 p.m. at University Place Presbyterian Church, followed by a Reception at Fircrest Golf Club. At Harry's request, in lieu of flowers, please make donations to Children's Therapy Center, 10811 Kent Kangley Road, Kent, WA 98031.
