註釋Publisher description: Raised by a Kelso widow during the Great Depression, Sid Snyder relied on his hard work to overcome his humble beginnings and become an enterprising grocery store owner, pioneering bank founder, successful real-estate investor, and one of the most respected lawmakers in Washington state history. He began his Capitol career in 1949 with a patronage job as an elevator operator and reitred as Senate majority leader in 2002, the same year he was honored as the national legislator of the year. Today, two roads are named after Snyder, one in Olympia leading into the Capitol Campus and one in his hometown of Long Beach.
