She also volunteered her time as a member of the East Knox Lions Club, receiving the Lion of the Year Award for her coordination of their cookbook. She loved her family, cherishing the times when everyone came to "The Lakehouse" for her welcoming cooking, lake activities, picture taking, and just to have a good time. She is survived by her husband of 55 years, Roy Landskroner and their children: Dawn Reese (Jeffrey), Elizabethtown, PA, Debra Kuhlman (Roger) of Ringwood, NJ, Dana Landskroner of State College, PA, and Deidre Yoder (Ian MacKinnon) of Newtown, CT; six grandchildren: Emily, Caity, Nicholas, Elizabeth, David, Lauren; five step-grandchildren: Jillian, Lindsay, Katelynn, David and Madalyn; one step-great-grandchild, Silas; brother, Gerald (Judy) Misekow.
