Ed Shewak, age 77, of New Brighton, PA, passed away at Passavant Hospital in McCandless, PA, on Tuesday, March 10th, 2026. Surviving him are his wife of 55 years, Cathy (Marzio), daughters, Jennifer (Bryan) of Paeonian Springs, VA, Allison (Josh) of Beaver, PA, Courtney, Gainesville, VA, and Ashley, Beaver Falls, PA. Also surviving are his grandchildren, Cameron, Colin, Vivian, Violet, Ella, Gianna, and Kaymin.

Ed was born in Rochester, PA to the late Edward Sr. and Ann (Sergi) Shewak. Ed was a man who knew his values and lived by them every day. He was a fair and honest man in business and in life. He was a faithful Catholic and could be expected every Sunday 7:30 mass at Saints Peter and Paul (Our Lady of the Valley Parish).

Ed’s parents started Shewak Distributor in 1950 from their garage in North Rochester. Ed’s parents expanded the business to the current location and built a nice home to raise him. Ed graduated from Rochester High School in 1966 and then started college at Edinboro State College with his high school sweetheart, Cathy. In his time there, he was always involved in student affairs and helped create changes in student government. He received a degree in Psychology and used this knowledge in his everyday interactions with customers and business acquaintances.

Upon graduating from college, Ed joined the Air National Guard. He worked at the 171st Cmbt. Spt. Group in Coraopolis. Ed continued to expand Shewak Distributor to where it is today. Ed had a great work ethic. He could be seen every day on Virginia Avenue driving the forklift back and forth waving to the people going up and down the road. Working with Ed meant a sales call would turn from 5 minutes to 30. He could give a history lesson about the beer industry but would also give the best advice about business and life. He was a wealth of knowledge and cared very much about the people he dealt with. He was a mentor to many people in this business.

Ed loved going to Charleston with Cathy every month to his second home. He enjoyed the many restaurants, friends, and beaches. He loved sitting in his beach chair taking in the sun. There he could rest and relax, knowing that his daughter, Allison, was taking good care of the business. Ed was very proud of Allison and loved working with her every day.

The family wishes to thank all the nurses and doctors at Passavant Hospital for their kindness and exceptional care. Words cannot express our thanks for the wonderful people involved in hospice care who watched and prayed over Ed.

A memorial gathering will be at Huntsman Funeral Home in Rochester, PA on Sunday, March 15th from 2-6PM. Family and friends are invited to celebrate Ed’s life at 10AM for a memorial mass at Saints Peter and Paul in Beaver on Monday, March 16th 2026. It will be followed with a luncheon at The Standard in Bridgewater.

Jeffrey Conte, 65, of Moon Township, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, February 27, 2026. Born on October 27, 1960, in Ellwood City, Pennsylvania, he was the son of the late Louis and Sally Conte.

Jeff was a proud graduate of Ellwood City High School and Lock Haven University. After earning his B.A. in Education, he began his teaching career in Elkland, Pennsylvania, and later joined the South Side School District, where he dedicated 34 years to teaching students with special needs. During his time at South Side, Jeff also coached basketball and baseball, sharing his love of sports and positively influencing countless students.

A devoted Pittsburgh sports fan, Jeff never missed the Pirates’ Home Opener and loved cheering on the Steelers and Penguins. He was also deeply involved with Special Olympics for many years, an experience made especially meaningful because he shared it with his brother Ethan.

Some of Jeff’s happiest times were spent cheering on his daughter and her friends during their soccer games—he never missed one.

Jeff loved being outdoors—working in the yard, landscaping, boating, and fishing—and he especially cherished family trips to Rehoboth Beach. Music was always a part of his life. His favorite song, “I’m Not Here for a Long Time, I’m Here for a Good Time,” captured his outlook perfectly. He was always dancing, singing confidently (and often off key), and bringing joy everywhere he went.

Above all else, Jeff loved his family and friends deeply. His huge, unforgettable hugs and his big, radiant smile will be profoundly missed. His warmth, humor, and loyal heart touched everyone who knew him.

In addition to his parents, Jeff was preceded in death by his brother, Ethan Conte, and his sister in law, Patricia Aulgur.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Jill Conte; his daughter and son in law, Kallie and Zachary Kelly; his brothers, Louis (Mary) Conte Jr., Randall Conte, and Kevin (Sandy) Conte; four brothers in law, William (Tracy) Coolidge, Scott (Joda) Coolidge, Jeff (Shirlee) Coolidge, and Todd (Missy) Coolidge; his sister in law, Pamela (Jay) Murphy; and many cherished nieces and nephews: Jacqlyn, Jenna, Allaire, Grace, Patrick, Lyndsey, Zeke, Brad, Megan, Blake, Matt, Kate, Timmy, Todd, Anna, Jake, Tyler, Lauren, and Anna Marie. He is also survived by his beloved dog, Molly.

A Memorial Gathering will be held on Saturday, March 14, 2026, from 1:00–4:00 p.m. at Huntsman Funeral Home and Cremation Services of Moon Township, 1522 Coraopolis Heights Rd. with a celebration of his life to follow.
