TOPSHAM, MAINE – Phyllis Lyeth Schneider, 82, died Sunday night, February 4, 2018 in Topsham, Maine.

A deeply caring and accomplished person, Phyllis was born in the Adirondacks on January 1, 1936, the daughter of Robert and Florence (Jarvis) Lyeth. Phyllis grew up Lake Clear, NY, and attended high school in Saranac Lake before graduating from the New York State College for Teachers in Albany with an A.B. in Social Studies. On April 7, 1956, she married Clayton Joseph Schneider Jr. at St. John’s of the Wilderness Church in Lake Clear and together they eventually settled in Elma, NY to raise their family.

Phyllis started her career as a teacher of English and Social Studies in Cohoes, NY, before taking time off to raise her family. Once her children got a little older, Phyllis completed master's and Ph.D. degrees in Education at the State University of New York at Buffalo (UB), writing as her doctoral dissertation, The Effect of Viewing Favorable and Unfavorable Depictions of the Elderly on the Attitudes of Children. Phyllis also served as a lecturer at UB, and as a teacher of remedial reading and subsequently an instructor of teacher in-service workshops in Depew, NY, before finishing her career as the Elementary School Principal of Elba (NY) Central Schools. Phyllis was active in the New York State Reading Association for many years, an organization assisting school administrators and teachers in improving the reading skills of New York’s students. She served as President for multiple terms, and organized reading conferences across the State.

Phyllis enjoyed camping both in the Adirondacks at Fish Creek / Rollins Pond, and on the family’s woodland in Rushford, NY, along with candlemaking and jigsaw puzzles, but her favorite activity was spending time with her family. She and her husband celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on a 2006 Caribbean cruise with her children/their spouses and her grandchildren.

Phyllis and Clayton enjoyed travelling, particularly their cruise in Alaska and their trip to Hawaii. Shortly after retirement, she and her husband moved to Sumner, Maine, where they lived for the twelve years before Clayton’s passing on April 12, 2016. More recently, Phyllis resided in Auburn and finally in Topsham, Maine. Phyllis and Clayton were parishioners at St. Catherine of Siena Roman Catholic Church in Auburn. She was a loving, devoted, patient, and industrious wife, mother, and grandmother who will be deeply missed.

Phyllis leaves behind her three children and their spouses; four grandchildren, and a brother. Prayers for Phyllis would be greatly appreciated. In lieu of flowers, please feel free to make a donation to your favorite charity to honor Phyllis’s memory. There will be a funeral mass and burial in Saranac Lake in the spring.

She met the love of her life, Richard V. (Dick) McNulty, at a summer resort in the Poconos where she and several of her girlfriends were vacationing in 1956.  He was also Brooklyn-born (and raised) and his career was centered in Manhattan as a Principal Bank Examiner for the State of New York Banking Department.  Certain job assignments required travel across the state and during those times it was “Audrey in charge”.  At the time of his retirement, many years later, his office was located at Two World Trade Center.  Audrey and Dick loved socializing (dance classes and dances, get-togethers, short trips) with the fellow examiners and their spouses over the years.  They had all worked very hard together from truly humble beginnings through the Depression and WWII Years and celebrated genuine life-long friendships and many Shared and Personal milestones. Audrey and Dick married on June 8, 1957 in Queens.  She “retired” and chose to become a full-time wife and mother.  Dick and Audrey raised their son and daughter on Long Island in another family-centered and child-filled neighborhood. They took annual family summer vacations to Grandma’s (Audrey’s mom, Alice) cottage on Candlewood Lake in Connecticut and to Konrad and Rose Isele’s Butternut Valley farm (a 60’s favorite early B and B) in upstate Morris, NY. Every now and then they would throw in trips to various historical places for “educational reasons” and fun. Audrey and Dick moved to Western NY in June of 1994 to be closer to their daughter’s family.  They settled in Batavia and were avid walkers around town (the ice rink was one of their favorite stops along with any place that offered a darn good vanilla ice cream cone) and they were regulars at all Senior Center activities.  After Dick’s health declined, he resided at the Village Green in LeRoy.  Audrey, always armed with her no-bake oatmeal cookies and jokes for the staff, visited him daily until he passed away on June 19, 1998. She then made a home with her daughter’s family for ten years, resided at the Cloisters in Warsaw for two, and spent the final 7 ½ years of her life with her “later-in-life Family” at East Side Nursing Home in Warsaw.

In addition to her parents, Albert and Alice, and her husband, Dick, she was predeceased by her sister, Ruth. She leaves many stories and memories to be shared by her daughter, Loraine (Rodney) West of Pavilion, NY and her son, Joseph (Baby Martin) McNulty of Mill Valley, California, as well as by her grandchildren- Jed (Meghan O’Reilly)West, Tanner (Caitie Welch) West, and Lucien and Genevieve McNulty. Her great-grandchildren, Everly (of Tanner and Caitie), Emmett and soon-in-June Kevin (of Jed and Meg) are Audrey and Dick’s (aka “Grandma and Grandpa Mac”) enduring living legacy of their love to this world. She also leaves several cousins, nephews and nieces, a cherished niece, Clare Sheridan of Medford, Massachusetts and of course her Wonderful (“Top of the Morning to you All…”) East Side Family! In her memory, please pass along a favorite corny joke or story, remember to add a little line dance of “1-step forward and 2-steps back” to the walking gait of your “daily constitutional” (but be careful if you are walking on a major road), don’t come home with any other paint on your car but its’ own, and watch an old black and white classic movie now and then. Simple is good.     

There will be no prior calling hours. Services will be held at the convenience of the family.  

Donations may be made in memory of Audrey and Dick McNulty to the Pavilion Elementary Outdoor Classroom.
