In-N-Out Burger Names New President: Co-founder Esther Snyder has taken over as president of the family-owned fast-food company following the death of her son Richard A. Snyder in a Dec. 15 plane crash. Guy Snyder, a company vice president and Esther Snyder’s elder son, has been chosen for the new position of chairman, and Christina Snyder, Richard’s widow, has joined the privately held, Baldwin Park-based company’s board. Richard Snyder, 41, president of the burger chain since 1976, and Executive Vice President Philip R. West, 37, were among four people killed in the crash of a private jet attempting to land at John Wayne Airport.
