Additional Media

A stay-at-home mother, Mrs. Osterhout was always well-involved with her four daughters’, and later her nine grandchildren’s, lives. She served as a Girl Scout troop leader for her daughters, and with seven of her nine grandchildren living nearby, would see most of her grandchildren daily, when they would come over for swimming; picnicking; boating; and, in the winter, ice-skating. But she was just as involved with the community she loved as her children.

“Mrs. Warners Lake,” as she was called by many in her East Berne community, earned her title by being active in many local groups. She ran the Red Cross swimming program until its closure at Thacher Park, did makeup for both the Hilltowns Players and high school productions at Berne-Knox-Westerlo, was a member of the Hilltown Community Resource Center, and was a member of the Warners Lake Improvement Association for 45 years along with her husband.

Mr. Osterhout said he was amazed by the people who came to pay their respects at a celebration of her life at their home on Warners Lake, describing how they ran out of parking spaces and how he met people he had never seen before in his life.

“You begin to realize how many lives she touched,” he said. An avid book reader and painter of ceramics, Mrs. Osterhout left behind a loving family and community.
