She was 71.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Ms. Kramer, the mother-in-law of Michael Caraballo, director of emergency management, joined the SUNY Plattsburgh staff not long out of Dannemora High School in September 1968 as a stenographer in the health service. A month later, she became a typist in the library. A few moths later, Ms. Kramer moved to payroll as a typist.</p><p class="MsoNormal">In May 1975, she became a payroll account clerk and moved up the ranks, being promoted to payroll clerk I, II and III in quick succession in the 1980s. She retired December 2005.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Calling hours will be held Thursday, Oct. 21 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the R.W. Walker Funeral Home, 69 Court St., Plattsburgh. A mass of Christian burial will be celebrated Friday, Oct. 22 at noon at St. Joseph’s Church, Dannemora. Burial will follow in the parish cemetery.
