He was stationed downtown at Ellicott Station Engine #1 where he spent his entire career. When asked why he never transferred he stated, “because that’s where the action was”.

He was an avid sports fan and enjoyed supporting the Bills, Yankees, Notre Dame, college football and basketball.

His favorite place was Snyder Beach. A family homestead going back decades where summers would last from May till November. He loved sitting on his porch with his family and dogs around him, having his favorite drink listening to good music. He would stare out and say, “It doesn’t get much better than this”.

Judy graduated from New Bedford High School in 1956 and continued her education at New Bedford Tech (UMASS), earning a BS in Textile Design & Fashion in 1960. She began her career teaching in Massachusetts and periodically in the Buffalo area. Eventually, Judy ventured into the real estate business in Western New York, becoming a highly successful broker in the Buffalo Southtowns area for nearly 50 years.

Judy believed in doing the right thing - for her community, for people in need, and for the betterment of others' lives. She was often found making a meal for a neighbor, steering a committee or standing up for things that mattered to her and others.

In addition to participating in the League of Women Voters, Exchange Club and Rotary, Judy was an active member of the Hamburg United Methodist Church in Hamburg, NY. She volunteered there in various capacities, including President of the Board of Trustees and Staff Parish Relations. She was also instrumental in founding the Sparks of Hope Recovery Center and actively participated in the family support group.

Judy was fiercely dedicated to her family and grandchildren, traveling across Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut to support them in their various activities and major life events.

A woman of many interests, Judy was known for her love of sports, particularly basketball and the Buffalo Bills. She was a cheerleader at heart, and always rooted for the underdog. Judy also had a passion for the finer things in life, including travel, good food, fine art and creating beautiful, welcoming spaces in her home.

Most of all, Judy loved the beach – whether she was enjoying the pink-sand beaches of Harbour Island, a trip to the Caribbean with friends, or sitting with her family in what she considered God's country – Westport, MA - she was happiest in her beach chair.

Judy is survived by her daughters, Jennifer Dahill and her sons Seve and Ricardo Llanio, Jessica Dahill and her husband Paul Lariviere and their sons Christian and Robert Lariviere, and Jane (Dahill) Flanigan and her husband Andy and their daughters Katie and Molly Flanigan.

William F. Riordan
Oct 15, 1955 - Jul 2, 2024

Bill Riordan, known as “Doc” to his friends, passed away swiftly at home, with his wife, Evelyne “Evie” (Lattimer), by his side. He was 68.

The son of the late Dr. Daniel and Phyllis Riordan, Bill was a life-long resident of the Village of Hamburg. He rose to Eagle Scout in Troop 502, and was a graduate of Hamburg High School (‘73) and Canisius College (‘78). He and Evie married at Trinity Episcopal Church on E. Main Street, where Bill had been an acolyte, on July 25, 1981.

Bill’s love of cars and of service shaped his life in work and friendship. Always “the driver” in high school capers with friends, he learned to care for cars working at Roger Sommer’s Garage on the corner of Buffalo Street and Legion Drive. Later, Bill worked in sales at West-Herr Ford and DeLacy Ford, his nights and weekends punctuated by radio calls from the Hamburg Volunteer Fire Department, where he served for 25-plus years. He went on to sell fire trucks, and eventually to long-haul truck driving, turning a pastime into a profession.

The car was Bill’s means of caring, whether helping his two children, Molly (Geoff Bucknum) and Dan, move from one apartment to the next, or picking up friends from the airport, the hospital, or the side of the road, ready to change a tire or grab a beer before heading home.

Bill became an avid sailor, learning to sail with friends during Wednesday night races with the Buffalo Harbor Sailing Club, eventually purchasing from a friend his sailboat, the Glass Nitemare.

Bill is also survived by his sisters, Susan Riordan (the late Michael Hamilton) and Ann (Ross) Moritz, the latter who acted as his proxy and champion through many health issues and hospital stays in his later years; by his canine companion, Sam, his last of many dogs he loved; and by nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends. In friendship Bill was wealthy, and his easy laugh, sparkling eyes, and pithy one-liners will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

A celebration of life will be held this summer. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Doc’s name to the Hamburg Volunteer Fire Department or SPCA Serving Erie County.

Daniel William Younker, born on June 7, 1935, in Greenville, Ohio, passed away peacefully at Garden Gate Health Care Facility in Cheektowaga, NY on June 17, 2024. Dan is survived by his devoted wife Kathleen Younker (née Teuber), his loving children Jonathan (Karen Maloney-Younker) Younker and Laura (Michael Keller) Younker, and his treasured grandchildren Xavy, Jonas, and Ben. He was the beloved son of Paul and Carol Younker (née Martin) and the cherished brother of Nancy (Bob) Barry.

Dan (never Dr. Younker) was a proud Ohioan and alumnus of Greenville High School, Ohio University (BA), the University of Nebraska (MA), and the University of Michigan (PhD in History). His academic career spanned over three decades, during which he inspired countless students as a history professor at St. Cloud State University (St. Cloud, MN), Bishop's University (Lennoxville, Québec), and Champlain College (Lennoxville, Québec).

A dedicated scholar, Dan was a lifelong researcher with a particular passion for British imperial history. He was an avid reader, with a special fondness for mysteries, adventure novels, but particularly humourists including (but not limited to): Mark Twain, Stephen Leacock, and Dave Barry. His hobbies were his passions, and he had fondness for model railroads and trains, especially Pennsylvania Railroad memorabilia, classical music, watching baseball and football (Especially Michigan & Nebraska games, always with the sound muted), coffee ice cream, and his dogs.

Dan's humility and hardworking nature were evident throughout his life. Even after retiring from 30+ years in academia, he embraced a manual labour job at a bookstore in Minnesota, showcasing his Midwestern work ethic and integrity. Known for his self-deprecating humour, he often referred to himself as a "certified old fart", and "a curmudgeon" from his 50s onwards to everyone he met, whether he knew them or not. His Southern Ohio accent, with words like "lish" for leash and "ruff" for roof brought quizzical looks and then laughter to those around him, especially his children and grandchildren.

In his later years, Dan and Kathie moved to Buffalo, NY, to be closer to their children and grandchildren, and "to escape the harsh Minnesota winters," and enjoyed being part of the South Buffalo neighbourhood community, lake effect snow notwithstanding.

A life well-lived, Dan will be remembered for his humility, honesty, and unwavering dedication to his family and profession. His legacy of knowledge, humor, and love will continue to inspire those who had the privilege of knowing him.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the SPCA in his honour.

Rest in peace, Dan/Dad/Grandpa. You will be dearly missed.
