                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 22, 2006

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I would like to pay tribute to a 
very special occasion today--the 50th wedding anniversary of Bobby and 
Nilie Snider. This event will take place on July 14, 2006, but the 
Snider Family is celebrating the event on June 25, 2006.
  Bobby Joe Snider was born on February 6, 1938 in Weaver, AL, to 
Herman and Gertice Snider. His wife, Nilie Finley Snider, was born on 
May 7, 1938, in Cedar Springs, AL, to Claude and Nile Finley. Mr. and 
Mrs. Snider were married on July 14, 1956 at Weaver Methodist Church. 
Together they raised three children, and Nilie went on to work in 
retail after the children were grown. Bobby retired from Liberty 
National as an insurance agent. They have two sons, one son-in-law, one 
daughter, two daughters-in-law, six grandchildren, and one great-
grandchild.
  Bobby and Nilie are active members of Weaver Baptist Church in 
Weaver, AL where Bobby has served as a Deacon. On June 25, 2006, a 
reception will be held in honor of their 50th wedding anniversary. I 
salute this lovely couple on the 50th year of their life together and 
join their family in honoring them on this special occasion.
