Patty Snyder: I Am Barnes & Thornburg

I AM...

• An extremely proud mother to two beautiful and brilliant adult daughters (Courtney and Lauren)
• Happily married to Brian (for 34 years)
• Someone who enjoys working in my flower gardens, taking long walks on beaches, shell hunting, riding my e-bike, visiting lighthouses, and woodburning
• Probably one of the last fans of Tab soda (Coca-Cola has stopped manufacturing Tab even after several letters to the corporate office requesting them not to do so)
• A travel lover (and have an itinerary binder for each new trip); enjoy seeing the different landscapes that our amazing country has to offer
• 1985’s Brownsburg Junior Miss (now called Distinguished Young Woman), and co-chaired and judged local programs for many years
• An LAA who has been at the firm for 35 years (all of them working in the Labor and Employment Department and for Ken Yerkes)
• The Passion Project coordinator for the Indianapolis office
• Someone who has collected turtle figurines and the like since the age of 5 (it all started when my oldest sister called me “turtle” because I was eating too slowly for her liking)
• From a racing family. Granddaughter to Floyd “Pop” Dreyer, who worked for the Duesenberg family and built all three cars in the front row of the 1931 Indianapolis 500
