WALTERS ROY F., Jr. Roy F. Walters, Jr. passed away peacefully at the age of 86, in Pittsburgh, on March 12, 2018, surrounded in the comfort of his wife and family. Born on October 29, 1931, Roy was the youngest son of Roy and Margaret Walters and was raised in Beechview on Bensonia Avenue where he attended grade school at St. Catherine's with his older sister, Helen Jean Donley (deceased). Roy starred as the point guard on the 1949 State Championship basketball team at St. Justin High School in Mt. Washington with friend, teammate and NFL Hall of Famer, Johnny Unitas. A 1953 graduate of St. Vincent College, Roy lettered in both baseball and basketball for the Bearcats and was recognized by his beloved alma mater for outstanding professional achievements and distinguished civic endeavors, first in 1982, as a “Letterman of Distinction”, and again as the “1998 Alumnus of Distinction”. Roy served his country as a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps and led an engineering command at the El Toro Marine Air Station in Laguna Beach, California for several years. A 1958 graduate of the University of Pittsburgh School Of Law, Roy was a partner at Brandt, McManius, Brandt & Malone from 1959 through 1976, while also serving as Solicitor of Peters Township in Washington County from 1968 through 1974. In 1976, Roy co-founded Fried, Kane & Walters where he practiced until he retired in 2000, having argued 7 cases before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania and being well recognized for developing influential appellate court precedent following the reformatory changes introduced by the 1974 amendments to Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Act. Roy married the love of his life, Kathleen Marie Dixon, at St. Raphael's Church in Morningside on May 9, 1959 and they remained happily and faithfully together for over 58 years. Roy is survived by four Children, Roy (Kim) Walters of Bedford, Massachusetts; Shawn (Charlotte) Walters of Vero Beach, Florida; Moira (Ron) Aulbach of Mt. Lebanon; and Brain (Suzi) Walters of Mt. Lebanon, as well as nine grandchildren, Michael, Luke, Nathan, Zachary, Tommy, Sarah, Tim, JP and Katherine. Roy was equally devoted to his family and his Catholic faith, having served his long-time Parish, St. Louise de Marillac, as its first President of the Parish Council, as well as lector, little league baseball coach and volunteer. Having been selected to multiple terms on the Board of Directors for Catholic Cemeteries, Roy attended Lenten retreats for decades at St. Paul of the Cross. Perhaps best remembered for his generous ways, kindness, strong faith, hopeful spirit, love of Pittsburgh and for always making St. Patrick's Day special for his family, friends and colleagues, he most enjoyed spending time with his family and celebrating life to the fullest, under any circumstance. While he'll be dearly missed, those who knew him best are grateful for all the cheerful memories created along his joyous journey here on earth. Funeral arrangements by BEINHAUER'S.

SNYDER SISTER ROSEMARY, CSJ (EDNA) Age 88, died Tuesday, March 13, 2018, in the 71st year of her religious life as a Sister of St. Joseph. The daughter of the late Anne and Howard Snyder, Sister Rosemary entered the Congregation from St. Joseph in New Kensington, PA. Sister Rosemary served as a teacher for 54 years in the dioceses of Pittsburgh, Altoona- Johnstown, Greensburg, and Columbus, Ohio. Her longest ministries included Mt. Gallitzin Academy in Baden (1983-1993); Assumption in Pittsburgh (1953-59); St. Bede in Pittsburgh (1962-67); and Kinder Klasse, a preschool in Ambridge (1996-2004). At Kinder Klasse, Sister Rosemary served with her beloved friend, Sister Maxine Little. When they retired together in 2004, they expressed their gratitude for the many graces that God bestowed on the program, which was founded by the Sisters of Joseph. Following retirement, Sister Rosemary became a ubiquitous volunteer in the Motherhouse, generously and quietly offering her time: filing papers, watering plants, delivering mail, posting signs, and companioning daily with Sister Maxine. In unison, they often walked the grounds and chatted while resting on a bench. Unassuming and humble, Sister Rosemary was known for moving at a fast clip, flitting from one activity to another. "No one will ever know all the little things she did for others - and without fanfare, without attention," a friend said. Sister Rosemary, who prepared thousands of young children to receive the sacraments, once said that the "excitement of children as they discover new skills and appreciate life" brought her great joy. Sister Rosemary is survived by a nephew, cousins, Associates and the Sisters of St. Joseph. Friends will be received Thursday, March 15, 2018, from 1 p.m. to the close of the Prayer Vigil and Friday, March 16, 2018, from 11 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. at the Motherhouse of the Sisters of St. Joseph. Prayer Vigil will be Thursday, March 15, 2018, at 6 p.m. at the Motherhouse. Mass of Christian Burial will be offered Friday, March 16, 2018, at 4:00 p.m. Burial will follow in the Sisters' Cemetery on the Motherhouse grounds.
