Shane R. Gunser

Shane was a graduate of Washingtonville High School and started working as a plumber with Local 373. He spent time with Nebrasky Plumbing and Heating until accepting a position at LegoLand, New York, where he was developing a rewarding career as Chief Hotel Maintenance Engineer. He was described by his co-workers as the person who would always lend a hand and say hello to everyone. They loved his character and enthusiasm for life.

Shane’s perseverance was one of his greatest strengths as you always saw his beautiful smile no matter what circumstances he was facing. He was quick with a joke or a funny quip. Family was very important to Shane and for a brief time he was able to show us what being a devoted father meant. His love for his son, Anthony, was so deep. Shane always loved with everything he had.

He was predeceased by his son, Anthony Jon Gunser and is survived by parents, Russell and Ellen, sister, Mallory Direso and brother-in-law, Daniel. He was the cherished Uncle of Charles, Timothy, Vincent, and Natalie.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Tuesday, February 15, 2022, from 4-8pm at David T. Ferguson Funeral Home,20 North Street, Washingtonville, New York.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to a local animal shelter.
