Anne B. Pape

Anne B. Pape, 73, of Unionville, PA passed away on Tuesday, November 12, 2024. She is survived by her husband and love of her life, William L. Pape, with whom she shared nearly seventeen years of marriage. The couple split their time between their homes in Unionville, PA and Saratoga Springs, NY.

Anne was the daughter of the late Joan Parsons and Sidney P. Snyder Jr. She was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1951 and spent much of her youth on Long Island, where she graduated from Long Island Lutheran High School. She went on to attend and graduate from Bradford Junior College.

Anne was an accomplished junior equestrian in her youth and spent much of her time on and around horses. She was the second equestrian to win 20 USET classes, earning the bronze, silver and gold medals. She twice finished runner up for the Alfred B. Maclay Trophy at the National Horse Show at Madison Square Garden.

Anne channeled her love of horses into horse racing and breeding in her most recent years. Anne shared her passion for equine endeavors with her beloved husband, Bill. Together they participated in steeplechase and flat track racing and supported several equine charities including the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame. Anne had a keen eye when it came to horse breeding and a whimsical humor when it came to the naming of each new horse. Her greatest joy was being able to enjoy her favorite hobby with her favorite person, Bill.

Anne is survived by her loving husband, Bill; her sisters, Elizabeth Walker and Linda Barber (Andrew); and her nieces, Allison and Carolyn. She is also survived by Bill’s three sons, six grandchildren and ten great grandchildren.

A celebration of life will be planned for late Spring/early Summer.
