KAREN (APPEL) WERLE February 1, 1947 ~ April 12, 2017 (age 70)

Karen Appel Werle, 70, passed away peacefully, Wednesday, April 12, 2017 at the Community Hospice-Earl B. Hadlow Center with her loving children by her side. She was born on February 1, 1947 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to John and Margaret Appel. She graduated from Bethel Park High School in 1964 and then graduated from the Washington Hospital School of Nursing in 1968. She served others for many years as a loving nurse for her community hospitals, hospice and ultimately retired from State Farm in 2003 after she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma.

Karen valued her family and friends dearly. She adored her children who were her lifelong heartbeat. She had three loving brothers she could always count on and who comforted her endlessly. As a friend, she found women to call sisters. As a co-worker, she was grateful for the good folks surrounding her that became another family. As a nurse, she took care of patients that taught her life lessons every time she cared for them.

Karen truly felt she experienced the goodwill of others every day of her life and always said she was a rich woman. Her riches weren’t from material wealth, but simply from the people she met along the way. Being around people is what she cherished most.

Karen is survived by her daughter, Stattie and her husband, Mike McCluskey; son, Bill and wife, Haley Werle, both of Fruit Cove, FL; one granddaughter, Amelia Werle; two grandsons, Liam McCluskey and Cade Werle; three brothers, Larry (Joan) Appel, Tuscon, AZ, Jack (Pam) Appel, Apopka, FL and Jim (Cindy) Appel, Fayettville, GA; along with many nieces and nephews.

Karen’s wishes were for her family to celebrate her life in her beloved hometown of Pittsburgh, PA. Her final resting place will be in the Ponte Vedra Valley Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please honor Karen by making a donation to Community Hospice of Northeast Florida or by doing a random act of kindness for a stranger in her memory.

She was born in Bethel Park, daughter of the late Eugene and Catherine Mance. She is survived by her husband, Richard Lee Snyder, whom she married 22 years ago on Dec. 23, 1994. She was preceded in death by her son, Timothy Dragun. At Patricia’s request, there will be no visitation. A memorial service will be held at Patton Presbyterian Church at a later date.

James Gerald Kollar

Dr. James G. Kollar, VMD, peacefully passed on March 14, 2014. He was loved and loving to his last day and will be forever in the hearts of his family and friends.

Jim was an extraordinary man by all standards. In his youth, he played football and was Pennsylvania state champion in the discus. He played college football under Engle and Paterno at Penn State. He then secured his veterinary medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania and moved with his wife, Marilou, to Virginia Beach to build what would become a successful practice in Princess Anne Veterinary Hospital.

Jim loved life and lived every moment to the fullest. He was incredibly creative in cooking, carpentry, architecture, gardening, repurposing, and being an all-around Renaissance man. He co-founded one of the first microbreweries in the country in Chesbay Brewing Company in the early 80’s. With the help of family and friends, he built and has continued his labor of love in a beautiful second home in the Blue Ridge Mountains. In the last 10 years of his retirement, Jim and Marilou have enjoyed world travel and reconnection with college friends.

His other defining trait was the intensity of his love of family and friends. His heart was as big as his spirit—which was immense. Jim is loved by his wife, Lou; his children, Jamie and Brian; his son and daughter-in-laws, Colin and Valarie; his two beautiful granddaughters, Evie and Madi; mother, Ann; brother, Frank among too many other family and friends to name.

He will be missed by all but carried in our hearts every day. His legacy of love, loyalty, and commitment will follow him forever. In lieu of flowers, an endowment to the First Colonial High School track and field program will be established in his honor. A memorial service will be held Saturday, March 22, 2014 at All Saints’ Episcopal Church at 11am. Reception to follow.

Paul was a beloved teacher at Bethel High School and a retired Marine Colonel who managed to combine both careers by continuing his military life as a reservist many summers. He trained Marines and served as an intelligence officer following his overseas duty during the Korean War. Paul was patriotic, displaying his flags proudly. Having lost family members during the Holocaust, he was dedicated to teaching and lecturing about it so that the world would remember and learn about the insanity of such acts. He made these events come alive for the Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh and his many students and parents. He will be especially missed by his military buddies, dear friends, his caregivers, Masonic brothers, and Bethel Park graduates who continued to stay in touch, as well as his heartbroken family.

David William Johns

David William Johns passed away suddenly on January 18, 2010 in Hampton, Virginia. David retired from the Air Force and regularly attended our reunions. I know many of you were good friends of his through school and his church.

There will be a memorial service for David at 11 am tomorrow (Friday, January 29, 2010) at Ruthfred Lutheran Church. David is being buried in Bethel Cemetery.

I was hoping to have more details to pass along to everyone, as I was told his death notice would appear in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette today, but that did not happen.

I have also learned that David’s father still lives in Bethel Park and attends Ruthfred Lutheran Church.

From our reunion committee, we sincerely want to express our condolences as David will sadly be missed by all of us.

Our prayers and thoughts are with David’s family at this time.

Pat Brown

6/12/12 from Dave's daughter, Davida...

I just wanted to thank you for the kind words written about my late father. Also I know there was question as to whether he was Navy or Air Force and I assure you it was Air Force. I remember the first reunion he went to vividly. He didn't want to go since it was my 21st birthday. However I insisted and said it was important that he go. Thankfully he agreed. And when he came home I know that he was very happy that he had gone.

Davida is going to send me a picture from about 2008 to post.

Charles Nichols January 13, 2009

As I look back and remember Chuck, I would like to share a memory with you...... (Pat Quel Brown)

Chuck never drove a car, but he rode the light rail system every day for years to a beauty shop he owned off Route 88 which was located at the entrance to my housing plan. Thus, I would see him almost on a daily bases getting on or off the trolley while I was also going to work. On many occasions, I had time to stop and talk with him. Several years ago, he closed his beauty shop to start working in a new salon closer to his home, which I believe was near Shady Side, so we lost personal contact. But a friend of mine always remembered to tell Chuck “Hi” for me and kept the line of communication going. One time Chuck and his sister Avis came to a women’s organization I belong to and presented a program on hair and beauty care. He surely knew these topics well.

The following is his funeral notice as written in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette which read as follows:
