Marilyn (Navadauskas) Condeluci

Marilyn Condeluci, 79, of Pittsburgh, passed away peacefully on Friday, June 5, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family after courageously battling Stage 4 cancer for nearly three years.

Born on April 18, 1947, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Marilyn was a lifelong Pittsburgh resident who dedicated her life to caring for others. Throughout her cancer journey, she faced every challenge with remarkable strength, grace, faith, and determination, inspiring those around her with her resilience and unwavering love for her family.

She was the beloved wife of Ronald Condeluci, with whom she shared 57 wonderful years of marriage. Together they built a life centered on family, devotion, and unconditional love. She was a loving mother to her daughter, Rachel Becker (Bill Becker), and was preceded in death by her cherished daughter, Christina Condeluci, who passed away on June 26, 2002, at the age of 15. Marilyn devoted herself to caring for Christina throughout her life, demonstrating a strength, compassion, and selflessness that defined who she was.

She was the proud and loving grandmother of Jacob, Michael, and Nathan Becker, who brought immeasurable joy and purpose to her life. For the past four years, Marilyn and Ronald lived next door to Rachel and her family, allowing her the precious gift of seeing her grandsons nearly every day. She treasured every moment spent with them, whether she was gardening, baking, playing games, or sitting together on the backyard swing sharing stories and laughter. Watching them grow into young men was one of her greatest blessings, and they truly were her world.

Marilyn was preceded in death by her parents, Margaret and Anthony Navadauskas. She is survived by her sisters, Margaret Andrews, Marie Kundrat, and Andrea Navadauskas, along with nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

A homemaker and Special Needs Aide, Marilyn spent her life caring for others. She had a remarkable gift for making people feel loved, welcomed, and important. One of her greatest talents was crocheting beautiful blankets, Christmas stockings, and treasured handmade gifts that will continue to warm the hearts and homes of those fortunate enough to receive them.

Marilyn was one of the kindest and most generous people anyone could ever know. She had a wonderful sense of humor, loved being goofy, and could always bring a smile to those around her. She treasured time spent with her husband, children, grandchildren, family, and friends.

A woman of deep faith, Marilyn held a special devotion to St. Thérèse of Lisieux. One of her favorite prayers reflected the way she lived her life each day:

"Fill our hearts with your pure love of God. Instill in us your little way of doing ordinary things with extraordinary love."

Marilyn's legacy is one of unwavering love, faith, kindness, and sacrifice. She dedicated her life to her family and leaves behind countless cherished memories that will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.

Family and friends will be received at Anthony M. Musmanno Funeral Home, Inc. 941 McCoy Road, McKees Rocks (Kennedy Township), PA 15136 on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
