Aaron Nicolas Terdle, May 21, 1986 – February 23, 2024. It is with unimaginable sorrow that we relay the passing of our beloved son, Aaron. He was taken from us in a tragic car accident in San Diego, CA. His sudden unexpected passing comes as a great shock to his family, friends, and the community. After receiving a BA in Accounting and Business Administration from Thiel College in 2008, Aaron worked for the family business Terdle & Company, P.C. for the past 16 years as an Enrolled Agent. He had recently decided to change directions and pursue new personal goals. He was enrolled in the MBA program at AMU. Aaron had embraced fitness and contemplated joining the Marines to serve his country. Recently, Aaron had begun traveling the world and experiencing new cultures. He loved adventure and learning. Cooking, grilling, and entertaining were things that he enjoyed immensely. Aaron had an enormous heart and wonderful sense of humor. He was generous and loyal to his friends and family. Golfing, gardening, swimming, snowboarding, and riding his motorcycle – all kept him busy in his spare time. Aaron was a huge animal lover and had two rescue dogs; Rogue and Ace, who joined him everywhere he went. He was a kind, gentle, loving man who treasured his family, his friends, and his clients. Aaron will be profoundly missed by his parents Mark A. and Debra Quindlen Terdle, his brother Ryan Terdle, his sister Ashley Terdle Giancola and her husband Josh, two nephews; Luca and Nico Giancola. His maternal grandparents A. Thomas and Elizabeth Quindlen and his paternal grandparents Patricia A. Terdle and the late Richard S. Terdle, as well as a large extended family, will miss him always.

Roberta (Bert) Lynn Benson, 66, of McKeesport, died peacefully at home on Friday, March 1, 2024, surrounded by the love of her family and her daughters at her side. Roberta was born August 1, 1957, in McKeesport; she was the daughter of the late Ray and Dolores Jean (Hedley) Suarez and the wife of the late Randy Benson, the love of her life. She has seen the world in ways not many people ever do. Even on the gloomy days, her world was full of glitter, rainbows and love. She saw the good in every person & the beauty in the most insignificant things. She was thankful for every day she saw the sun shining and heard the birds chirping (or that damn dog, even if she would never admit it). She never took a single moment for granted.
She found peace & serenity at Geneva on the Lake. She would spend hours looking for beach glass, surrounded by the water's calmness and feeling the sun's warmth. She touched so many lives by sharing her love, always trying to make everyone's day a little brighter. She touched many people's lives over the years, working in the Emergency Room at McKeesport Hospital, where she also met dear friends who became family.
