By obits

 

Betty Marie Guseman, 80, of Washington Township, Belle Vernon, was called home by her Lord on Thursday, Aug. 15, 2019, after a courageous battle with cancer. A daughter of the late Stephen and Irene Demeter Drotos, she was born in North Charleroi on Jan. 24, 1939. A lifelong resident of Belle Vernon, she was a member of First Christian Church of Fayette City and Monessen Chapter No. 205 Order of the Eastern Star. Betty had worked at the former Kmart of Belle Vernon as a greeter and at the customer service desk, and, for nine years, Mon Valley Hospital in the medical records department. By trade, she was a beautician. A “people person,” Betty loved cooking, bowling, dancing, traveling and her family. Survivors include her husband of 60 years, Alden R. Guseman; one daughter and son-in-law, Jody and Alf Moebius of North Belle Vernon; and many brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews and cousins. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by one son, Robert R. Guseman; and one brother, Edward Drotos. Friends will be received 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Sunday at FERGUSON FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORY INC., 700 Broad Ave., Belle Vernon. www.FergusonFuneralHomeandCrematory.com, 724-929-5300. Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. Monday in the funeral home with Pastor Wayne Boring officiating. Interment will follow in Belle Vernon Cemetery.
