Joe L. AYERS, 81, of Coudersport, PA, died Thursday, August 6, 2026 in his home.
Born March 10, 1945, in Coudersport, he was the son of Clyde and Fern Buchanan Ayers. A graduate of Coudersport High School, he served honorably with the U.S. Army from 1964 – 1965. He worked on the family farm and was employed by Leete Lumber, Pierce Glass, Ayers Collection Service, and PennDOT, retiring at age 62 in 2007. He also served as a Summit Township Supervisor.
As a young couple raising their own six children, Joe and Gail always made room for extra kids, dogs, and cats to live at Frosty Hollow, but they never dreamed that someday that aspect of their lives would turn into a business. However, in 1992, it did just that. After having remodeled a large barn where they raised their four sons and two daughters, Joe and Gail decided to add some extra bedrooms and bathrooms and began welcoming guests to Frosty Hollow Bed & Breakfast. A short time later they rehabilitated the farmhouse where Joe grew up and the cottage where his grandparents had lived. Every member of the family has had a hand in some portion in the making of a very special property. Making guests feel like they have come to visit old friends has been the goal of the Ayers family for many years.
Many of the guests over the past 34 years of business have seen the results of the working hands of the man, Joe, aka Mr. Joe, aka Pa, behind the many projects seen in Gail’s “mind’s eye!” He also had his hands in the kitchen as well! He has been an inspiration to his family, a steady and reliable spirit sharing his love for his wife, family, and business unconditionally!
Joe was a man who knew how to pray. With a list of people who were in need of prayer in his pocket, he rose at 4:00 am every day and petitioned God on their behalf. When he heard of anyone with trouble or sickness, he added that name to the list. He was always a faithful servant to the call.
Surviving besides his wife, Gail, are: six children, Tracy Ayers of Coudersport, Joseph Daniel (Donell) Ayers of Coudersport, Cindy L. (Bruce) Heiser of Sunbury, Matthew (Betsy) Ayers of Coudersport, Aaron (Annetta) Ayers of Spring Mills, and Joshua (Abby) Ayers of Coudersport; 11 grandchildren; six great-grandchildren; nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by eight siblings.
A gathering to celebrate Joe’s life will be held Saturday, September 5, 2026 at Frosty Hollow from 1:00 – 4:00 PM. Memorials may be made to a charity of the donor’s choice. Arrangements are under the direction of Olney-Foust Funeral Homes & Crematory, Ulysses, PA. Online condolences may be expressed at www.olneyfoust.com.

Thomas J. “Shaky” “Slick” Rieder, 74, of St. Marys, passed away on Thursday, August 13, 2026 at Penn Highlands Elk with his loving family by his side following a lengthy illness.
He was born on December 20, 1951 in St. Marys, PA, a son of the late Thomas Rieder, Sr. and Irene Wurm Rieder.
On July 7, 1973, he married the love of his life, Margaret Shoup, who preceded him in death in 2002. Together they shared more than 29 years of love and marriage.
Tom was a graduate of St. Marys High School, class of 1969 and was a member of Sacred Heart Church. Tom retired from DiNardo Paving after many years of service, but retirement certainly didn’t mean sitting still. For a number of years afterward, he could be found mowing grass at the cemetery, always keeping busy. Tom was a longtime member of the PFL, American Legion and the K of C, where many hours were spent there telling old stories, remembering the good old days, laughing with his buddies, and making a few new memories along the way.
Tom was truly a character who had an incredible memory, rarely forgot a face or a story, and was almost never seen without one of his signature bandannas. He loved listening to some old country, but could often be found sitting in his Jeep with AC/DC cranked up. He enjoyed life’s simple pleasures, good friends, the outdoors, a good story, and doing things exactly the way he wanted to do them. He was blessed with many wonderful friendships throughout his life and is survived by numerous dear friends, including Dude Bauer, Mike Samick, Stan Meyer, and Todd and Kim Taylor. But of all the people and things Tom loved, nothing compared to his wife. She was, without question, the love of his life and held the biggest place in his heart. Tom leaves behind a family he dearly loved, plenty of stories, plenty of laughs, and the kind of memories his family and friends will still be talking about for years to come-probably with a little old country or AC/DC playing in the background.
He is survived by three children; Allison (Stephen “Haggar”) Auman of St. Marys, Wesley (Stephanie) Rieder, of Emporium, PA, and Russ Rieder of Tioga County; by his eight beloved grandchildren, one great-grandchild and was anticipating the birth of another great-grandson.
He is also survived by four siblings; Tim (Karen) Rieder of St. Marys, Ken Rieder of St. Marys, Mark (Tracy) Rieder of Emporium, and Paul (Stacy) Rieder of Colorado, as well as by numerous nieces and nephews.
In addition to his parents and his wife, Tom was preceded in death by his sisters-in-law; Christine Rieder and Mary Beth Muhitch.
A Mass of Christian Burial for Thomas J. Rieder will be celebrated on Wednesday, August 19, 2026 at 12:00 PM at Sacred Heart Church, 337 Center Street, St. Marys, PA 15857.
Burial will follow in the St. Marys Catholic Cemetery.
There will be no public visitation.
Memorial Contributions may be made to a favorite charity.

Dolores Maxine Schultz, a beacon of kindness and strength, passed away
peacefully on August 9, 2026. Born on February 17, 1932, in Jackson Center,

Leatta (Butler) Miller.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband,

great-grandchildren, Owen Gutman, Frederick Foust, and Lyra Foust.
Dolores was a proud graduate of Shawnee High School in Lima, Ohio, and

dedicated her career to nurturing young minds in the Piqua City Schools,

the Gifted Program and Project Discovery, initiatives that enriched the lives

A woman of many talents, Dolores was a devoted member of the Order of

her cooking. Known for her warm smile and indomitable spirit, Dolores was a
source of encouragement and positivity, touching the lives of everyone she
met with her genuine care and compassion.
Even in the face of profound personal loss, Dolores exemplified resilience and

succession, she continued to embrace life with optimism and moved to
Pennsylvania to live with her daughter, Michele. There, she forged new
friendships and remained active in her community through the local Garden
Club and the Red Hat Society.
