HENRY WAYNE SNYDER

November 23, 1935 – August 15, 2023

Henry Wayne Snyder peacefully passed away on August 15, 2023, in Fountain Valley, California.  Henry was born on November 23, 1935, in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.  He graduated from Lawrenceburg Consolidated High School in 1953 and later pursued his passion for fashion design, graduating from Parsons School of Design.

Henry is survived by his brother, Stephen Ernest Snyder (and sister-in-law, Bonnie Lee Snyder), and leaves behind many nieces, nephews, and cousins.  He was preceded in death by his parents Geneva Chase Snyder and Henry Wayne Snyder, as well as his sisters, Marian Janes and Mary Dawn Allen.

Henry's success in various businesses can be attributed to his artistic, creative, and innovative ideas.  He enjoyed living in New York City for many years before eventually relocating to Newport Beach, California.

Henry enjoyed traveling the world and was a skilled cook, Henry's specialty was his beautifully decorated, decadent cheesecakes.

His circle of friends spanned the United States, and he always maintained close connections with them.

Henry had a tender and caring soul with a big heart.  Henry's family and friends, who held him dear, will miss him deeply.
