Beatrice Ann Mack Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Beatrice Ann Mack (Shannon): Daughter of Roy and Susan Shannon. Born in Monessen, PA in 1912, she died one month short of her 105th birthday. Loving wife of the late T. Ray Mack. Caring and fun loving Mother of Thomas (Paula), Maureen (Ralph Weaver), James (Diane), Sheila (Larry Desjardins), Susan (Lowell Davis), William (Cynthia) and David (Jihee). Fantastic grandmother (she made each grandchild feel like he or she was always her favorite) of Thomas, Susan, Karen, John, Robert, Jodie, Thomas, Tammy, Terri, Tracer, David, Richie, Steven, Becky, Shelly, James, Victoria, Andre and Madeline. Great grandmother of 19 and Great-great grandmother of 4. Bea was a nurse tending to Ray’s mother when they met. As a couple they enjoyed dancing, golf and bridge. Bea also enjoyed painting and her children are the recipients of many of her works. After Ray’s passing she continued playing golf having “a hole in one” at age 87 and becoming the 9 hole champion at age 89. She also continued playing bridge until she was 103 and loved nothing more than setting someone especially her eldest son. The family would like to thank Rachel Hortert and the staff at Concordia at the Orchard for their wonderful care. Also, a very special thank you to Bea’s aides, Toni Grupp, Tracy Malinski, Carolyn Schriver, Linda Wilson, Pam Rettig and Wendy Lumley, who are angels as far as the family is concerned. They couldn’t have been more encouraging, engaging or shown more loving tenderness. A Mass of Christian burial will be held at St. Andrew's Catholic Church, 1660 N. Main St. Ext., Butler on Tuesday, May 2, 2017 at 10 AM. Visiting hours are respectfully omitted.
