Patricia A. Dundore, 83, of Lebanon, passed away on Friday, July 4, 2025, at Alpine Valley Post Acute and Healthcare Center, Lebanon. She is survived by her loving husband, Herman W. Dundore.
Born in Lancaster, PA, on June 26, 1942, she was the oldest daughter of the late Russell and Esther (Heisey) Shiner. Patricia was an educator for 35 years with the Cornwall-Lebanon School District, teaching a 4th- and 5th-grade transition class at Ebenezer Elementary School. She earned a master’s degree +60 credits from Millersville University and served as a Teacher of the Gifted at Cedar Crest Middle School. She finished her career as the Learning Facilitator at Cornwall Elementary School.
Patricia was a realtor and an Associate Broker for 47 years with Suburban Realty in Annville, PA. She loved helping her clients buy homes because she believed that home ownership was the best investment. She and her husband invested in real estate, purchasing and remodeling homes and apartments in Lebanon County.
Herman and Patricia traveled the world with their family, visiting countries on six continents. Always the educator, Patricia enjoyed learning about the culture, geography, food, language, and currency of each country.
Patricia’s generosity and concern for others were evident in the lives of her family and friends. She seldom took time for herself, except to fight Parkinson’s disease for almost 20 years with courage and determination.
In addition to her husband, Patricia is survived by her daughter, Amy Donnachie, wife of Keith, of Lebanon; grandchildren, Rachel Turley, wife of Timothy, and Aaron Donnachie, husband of Willow; and great-grandchildren, Jackson Turley, Flynn Turley, Ezra Donnachie, and Rory Donnachie.
She is also survived by her siblings, Sandy Stormfeltz, wife of Timothy, of Cleona, Jere Shiner, husband of Anita, of Lebanon, Gary Shiner, husband of Nancy, of Cleona, Greg Shiner, husband of Denise, of Manheim, and David Shiner, of Idaho.
