Obituary for Phyllis J. Katyansky

Phyllis J.  Katyansky
Phyllis J. "Minnie" Katyansky, 88, of Old Butler Rd passed away the afternoon of August 8, 2013 at Ellwood City Hospital.

Born on October 2, 1924 in New Castle, Phyllis was the daughter of the late Pasquale and Marie Carmen Palmiri Regna. Also preceding her in death on September 23, 1968 is her husband, Milton A. Katyansky.

Phyllis was a member of St. Joseph the Worker Church. She loved her forty years as a hairdresser in New Castle and Los Angeles. Music was important and she was always willing to dance or sing. Phyllis was a voracious reader. Her love of words were evident in her love of crossword puzzles and her writing poetry. She was very proud of her poetry being published in the New Castle News. Her generosity was ever present, if she had a dime she would give you a nickel. Her sparkling eyes and bright smile will be greatly missed by her family.

She is survived by her two children, Helen Marie Katyansky and Michael Katyansky, both of New Castle; her fiancé, Louis Matotek, her sister-in-law, Rose Regna; her step-sister, Ida Boazzo; her granddaughter, Stephane (Joseph) Mastropietro and two great-grandchildren, Joseph Mastropietro and Giavanna Mastropietro.

In addition to her parents and husband, Phyllis is preceded in death by her three sisters, Margaret Pearl, Agnes Apecelli, Hilda Ridenbaugh and two brothers, Joseph Regna and Jacob Regna.

Visitation is Sunday from 4PM to 8PM at the Ed and Don DeCarbo Funeral Home and Crematory 941 S. Mill St.

A procession will leave the funeral home on Monday morning at 10AM for St. Joseph the Worker Church where a Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10:30AM officiated by Rev. Father Nicholas Vaskov.

Burial will take place at St. Vitus Cemetery.
