Priscilla Kaluponov – Charleroi
Priscilla Kaluponov, 93, of Craven Hill, Charleroi, died Sunday, Oct. 25, 2020, in the Mt. Vernon of Elizabeth Memory Care Home. She was born March 7, 1927, in Donora, daughter of the late Michael and Katherine Pasterick. In 1945, she graduated from Donora High School and went on to train as a beautician. Priscilla married Andrew Kaluponov on Aug. 2, 1953, sharing a beautiful life together for 52 years before Andrew passed in January 2005. A faithful member of the St. Nicholas Orthodox Church of Donora where she sang alto in the choir, she was also a member of the St. Nicholas Society. On warm spring days you could find Priscilla tending to her cherished garden, and in the cooler months waving her Terrible Towel in support of her favorite team. In addition to parents, she was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Andrew; brothers, Stephen, Peter, John, Michael and Andrew; and sisters, Margaret, Miriam and Helen. Mrs. Kaluponov is survived by her son, Philip; daughter, Daria (Tony) Tatasciore; her two grandchildren, Natalya and Michael; and many loving nephews and nieces.
