Marian Jankiewicz

Marian Jankiewicz passed away peacefully on September 4, 2025, just shy of her 94th birthday. Marian was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Born in Ambridge, she had been a resident of Leetsdale since 1955. For the past three years, she lived with her son, Anthony, and his wife, Sherree, in Circleville, OH.

She attended Ambridge High School and went on to earn her nursing degree from Beaver County Community College. Marian dedicated 20 years of compassionate service to patients at Sewickley Valley Hospital. A woman of deep faith, she was an active member of Good Samaritan Parish (now Saint Luke the Evangelist Parish) and the Christian Mothers Ladies Guild. Her greatest joy was her family, whom she guided with extraordinary strength, unconditional love, and a nurturing spirit.

Marian was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Antoni; her parents, Frank and Mary Bosanac; and her siblings, Frank (Barbara) Bosanac, Shirley (Mike) Vranic, and Jean Bosanac. She is survived by her brothers, Chuck (Pat) Koman of New Jersey and Tom (Elaine) Koman of New York.

She leaves behind four children who will treasure her memory: Sandy (Steve) Martin of New Oxford, PA; Anthony (Sherree) Jankiewicz of Circleville, OH; Gary Jankiewicz of Pittsburgh, PA; and Beth (Silas) Plybon of Roanoke, VA. Her memory will also be cherished by her grandchildren: Caitlin (Spencer) Marker, Michael Jankiewicz, Alyssa (Fred) Pape, Lindsey (Eric Budge) Jankiewicz, Nicolas Plybon, Joe, Zachary, and Jordan Brzycki, and Tara (Ian) Butcher. She was also blessed with seven great-grandchildren: Lillian, William, Evelyn, Elyse, Cassidy, Emerson, and Juda.

Friends will be received on Saturday, September 13th, from 9-10 AM, in the John Syka Funeral Home, 833 Kennedy Drive, Ambridge, from where a rosary and prayers will be led by the Christian Mothers.  A Mass of Christian Burial will follow at 10:30 AM in Good Samaritan Church - St. Luke the Evangelist Parish. Interment will follow in SS Peter and Paul Cemetery.
