Obituary
KNOX — Shirley S. Landauer — “one of the best homemakers the world has ever known,” according to her family — died on Wednesday, July 18, 2012. She was born in Middleburgh on March 12, 1927 to Ivan and Myrtle Schanz, and grew up on Sickle Hill in the town of Berne. From this hillside farm she went to and graduated from Berne- Knox Central School in 1945. While in high school, she met and fell in love with Joe Landauer. She went to work at the General Electric Company in Schenectady where she roomed with a girlfriend through the week until her father picked her up on Friday night to spend the weekend on the farm.
Shirley and Joe Landauer were married in 1949 and started their family of seven children. “She raised her children in a clean and healthy home with good spiritual and solid 3Rs-type education,” her family wrote in a tribute. “Shirley gave each of them an excellent start in life. While Joe was working nights or attending one of the many meetings he needed to, Shirley was home, making sure it was in order, a job she excelled in.”
When the last of her children started school, Mrs. Landauer began a 25-year career with Price Chopper. “As a cashier, she prided herself that the drawer was to the penny day after day,” her family wrote, noting that this was long before the use of debit cards. After her husband died in 1991, Mrs. Landauer began to winter in Florida near Beverly Hills and near her daughter Judi. Later, her daughter Jackie moved to Florida and the three of them made some good memories together.
Survivors include her daughters, Judi Stinson and her husband, Doug, Jackie Hallock and her husband, Clyde; her brother, David P. Schanz, and his wife, Dianne; her sons Jeff Landauer, Joel Landauer and his wife, Bonnie, and James Landauer and wife, Laura; and many grand- and great-grandchildren.
Her husband, Joe, died before her as did her sons, Tom and John; her sister, Delores; her brother Richard; and her grandson Jason. Those who wish to pay their respects may do so today, Thursday, July 26, from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Fredendall Funeral Home in Altamont. A Funeral Mass at St. Lucy/St. Bernadette Catholic Church in Altamont will be held at 10 a.m., on Friday, July 27.
