Charles J. “Chuck” Krisfalusy, 70, of Monongahela, passed away on Thursday, April 13, 2023, in Halcyon of Bridgeville. Born June 4, 1952, in Brownsville, he was the son of the late Charles and Mary Rohaley Krisfalusy. Chuck was a 1970 graduate of California High School and a member of St. Andrew the Apostle Parish in Monongahela. His family, especially his grandchildren, meant the most to him. A past board member of the MonValley United Way, he enjoyed golfing in leagues around the area and was an avid trout fisherman. He worked for over 30 years as a lube tech assembler for the Elliott Company in Donora, until his retirement in 2008. Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Kathy O’Rourke Krisfalusy, whom he married Nov. 9, 1974; a son and daughter-in-law, Kevin (Adrianna) Krisfalusy of Bethel Park; two daughters and sons-in-law, Karla (Ryan) Mackowski of Penn Township, and Kimberly (John) Popp of Upper St. Clair; three sisters, Patricia Maxon of Blainsburg, Cynthia (Robert) Schmidt of Roscoe and Lisa Nevala of California, Pa.; seven grandchildren, Kacie and Ashley Persia, Andrew, Ryan and Cruz Popp and Ella and Noah Krisfalusy; and a step-granddaughter, Kalista Mackowski of Erie. He was preceded in death by his brother and sister-in-law, Dennis and Lois Krisfalusy. Friends will be received at MARSHALL MARRA FUNERAL HOME, 216 Chess St., Monongahela, 724-258-6767, from 1 to 3 and 5 to 7 p.m. Sunday. Everyone is asked to meet at St. Andrew the Apostle Parish, 722 W.
