Margaret I. Sheroskey 1926-2026

She was born on June 1, 1926, in Brier Hill, Pa., a daughter of Stephen and Maria Yohman Rerko.

She was a graduate of Penn High School in Greenville, Pa.

In addition to being a proud homemaker, Marge retired from Packard Electric and also worked at Lakeview Schools, retiring in 2000.

She was a member of St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Church, where she was a member of the Women’s Quilting Club and often helped with rummage sales.

Marge was a very skilled quilter, stitching all her quilts by hand because “using a machine is cheating.” Marge also enjoyed sewing, crocheting, gardening and shopping. Most of all, she cherished spending time with her family. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were the light of her life.

Marge is survived by her daughter, Elaine Gowdy of Fowler; grandchildren, Rachelle (Anthony) Palac of Vienna and Jared (Kaitlin) Gowdy of Fowler; and great-grandchildren, Lillyanna, Miranda and Cody Palac.

Besides her parents, Marge was preceded in death by her husband of 45 years, George Sheroskey, whom she married on Oct. 18, 1952; son-in-law, Earl Gowdy; sisters, Anne Motika and Mary Liszka; brothers, Steven, Andrew, Joe and John Rerko, and infant brother, John.
