Jerry A. Zebrak, age 71, of Port Vue, died at home on June 3, 2024. Born on April 17, 1953, in McKeesport, he was the son of the late Louis J. and Laura (Brzek) Zebrak and was the loving husband of 39 years to Leslie (Lape) Zebrak. A proud graduate of McKeesport Area High School in 1971, Jerry worked many years as a research technician for a refractory company before retiring in 2016. Jerry actively engaged with his community, being a member of the 11th Ward Club and the Port Vue United Methodist Church. But it was his love for family and friends that truly defined him. He found joy in simple pleasures, such as watching Hallmark movies, with a soft spot for heartwarming Christmas classics. His love for family and friends was evident in every moment spent together, leaving a lasting impression on all who knew him. In his younger years, Jerry enjoyed playing in softball leagues, partaking in fishing excursions, and golfing. These activities brought him immense happiness and left him with cherished memories. A man of kindness, integrity, and a gentle spirit, Jerry's absence will be deeply felt by all who knew him. He had a wonderful sense of humor and had a knack for making people laugh. Yet, his legacy of warmth and compassion will continue to inspire and guide those whose lives he touched, reminding us of the power of a life well-lived.

Margaret M. Ratesic, age 91, originally from McKeesport, died May 5, 2024, at Westmoreland Manor. Born February 27, 1933, in McKeesport, she was the daughter of the late John and Erma (Brunori) Walker and wife of the late Edward Ratesic. Margaret, better known as Peg or Peggy, had her kitchen always filled with the delightful aromas of her signature treats - hoho cake, cherry squares, 7-layer jello, and Christmas cookies, each made with love and shared generously with family and friends. Peg carried on the tradition of having family get togethers for holidays at her house, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. She labored in the kitchen preparing for these celebrations by cooking turkey, ham, stuffed cabbage, breaded chicken, and her famous desserts. In her younger years, Peg loved to bowl with her husband in a couples league, and go dancing at the Palisades in McKeesport. Peg had a fondness for bingo and the exhilaration of trips to Las Vegas with her husband, where she delighted in the bright lights, slot machines, and captivating shows. Most of all, Peg cherished the time spent with her grandchildren, showering them with love and affection. She loved to give generous gifts to her kids and grandkids, and holidays and birthdays were filled with hours of unwrapping all the treasures she had bought for everyone.
