Also see . . . Austin Pillars of the City: Belita M. Schindler. Excerpt:
Her professional career as an Interior decorator began first in Rochester and then at Robbins Furniture in Austin. In 1978, she opened her own business, Belita’s Residential and Commercial Interiors. Through this enterprise, she enhanced many homes and businesses in the area until she retired in 2012. Her philosophy of life is best summed up in something she heard during her time while attending the Blandin Leadership Conference: “Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.”(Submitted on November 3, 2023, by Cosmos Mariner of Cape Canaveral, Florida.)
