Elena S. Snider, 57, of Greeley, CO passed away January 5, 2015 at Life Care Center of Greeley.

Elena enjoyed bowling, movies, playing bingo and cards and fishing. She attended Easter Seal Handicamp each summer where she loved to ride horses. Elena competed in the Special Olympics where she won numerous medals and ribbons. She was a member of People First and Best Buddies. Music played a big part in her life and she enjoyed listening, dancing and singing along. Elena worked at Schaeffer Enterprises for 32 years and was always ready waiting for the bus to take her to work with a smile on her face.
