[[Image:20011029Snyder.jpg|thumb]] '''Christine Anne Snyder''' was an arborist for Outdoor Circle in Kailua,Hawaii. She was one of the victims onboard [[Flight 93]]. She was aged 32. <ref>{{cite web |title=September 11:A Memorial|publisher={{wplink|CNN}}|url=http://edition.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2001/memorial/people/1594.html|accessdate=5/09/10|date=9/9/03}}</ref> With her long blonde hair and a deep beach tan honed from a lifetime in [[Hawaii]], Christine was often underestimated by the people she came up against in her job as an arborist with the islands' oldest nonprofit environmental group.<ref name=pgbio>{{cite news |title=Passenger: Christine Snyder |author= |newspaper=[[Pittsburgh Post-Gazzette]] |date=October 28, 2001 |url= |accessdate=6/9/10}}http://www.post-gazette.com/headlines/20011028flt93snyderbiop8.asp</ref> But time and again during her 6 1/2 years with The Outdoor Circle, Snyder would convince developers, builders and state officials of the need to preserve and replant native trees across the Hawaiian islands.<ref name=pgbio /> As project manager for landscape and planting, "she had a very strong opinion and very good ideas," said [[Mary Steiner]], chief executive officer of The Outdoor Circle. "She was vibrant and caring, and forceful in seeing things through. "There is a lot of red tape and a lot of coordination that was required. I think she really knew her stuff."<ref name=pgbio /> A native Hawaiian, Christine, 32, lived a half hour's drive east of Honolulu in Kailua in a three-bedroom townhouse with her husband, [[Ian Pescaia]], their cat, Horace, and pointer-red nose pit bull named Zeus. The townhouse was Snyder's pride and joy, decorated with Hawaiian prints bursting with pastel renderings of women garlanded with flowers.<ref name=pgbio /> Christine was enamoured with The Outdoor Circle. The three-person staff was supplemented by 11 branches across the state, and Christine's job required her to manage scattered groups of volunteers.<ref name=pgbio /> In Waikiki, she argued for developers to save several large old banyan trees at a building site. In the end, after a protracted struggle with the developer, Christine prevailed. At her memorial service, the same developers sent flowers.<ref name=pgbio /> ==Family== Husband, [[Ian Pescaia]] ==Timeline== *[[1984]]:Christine meets her future husband [[Ian Pescaia]].
