GLADYS L. SLATER
Kenoza Lake, N.Y. - Gladys L. Slater, a lifetime area resident, and a homemaker, died Monday, December 6, 2004 at Valley Hospital, Ridgewood, N.J. She was 68. The daughter of the late Frank and Louise Dreher Gabel, she was born November 13, 1936 in Callicoon. She was the widow of George Slater. Some people are the foundations of their communities. It's hard to find a neighborhood activity taking place without them. They are solid members of the fundamental institutions of its society. They give freely of what they have so that the life of the town seems to go on uninterrupted. Gladys Slater was one of those people for Kenoza Lake. Extremely active with the Kenoza Lake Fire Department's Booster Club, and with the Kenoza Lake United Methodist Church, Gladys played an active role in organizing, advertising, and working at all of Kenoza Lake's annual fund raisers. She worked tirelessly at the Methodist Church and Kenoza Lake Fire Department's chicken barbeques and pancake breakfasts. Gladys helped to organize the Fire Department's annual roast beef dinners, and she worked unstintingly at them. It was Gladys who collected most of the door prizes from local merchants for the Booster Club's penny social. Gladys seemed never to run out of time to lend a hand and help neighbors in need by driving them to town or visiting former community members residing in nursing homes. All one had to do was walk past her house, and she would come out and talk. And when she wasn't in her house or helping out in the community, she would be in her garden. It seems that once people like Gladys Slater have left us, we feel how much they have done for us, and how sorely we miss them. Survivors include one daughter, Margaret Slater and her friend, Roland Besimer of Swan Lake; two sons, George Slater and his wife, Melissa, of Kenoza Lake, and David Slater of Jeffersonville; one sister, Helen Wachter of Jeffersonville; two grandchildren, Kaitlin and Christopher Slater; and several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by a sister, Marion Pallom. Friends may call Wednesday, December 8 at Stewart-Murphy Funeral Home, Jeffersonville, from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, December 9 at the Kenoza Lake United Methodist Church, 11 a.m. The Rev. Allen Wachter will officiate. Burial will be in The Bauernfeind cemetery, Callicoon.
