Mary Beader

March 5, 1926 – June 30, 2022

Mary A. Beader passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by family. She was 96 years

old.

Mrs. Beader, a current resident of Bluffton, SC, but long-time resident of Sharpsville, PA, was

born on March 5, 1926 in Sharon, PA, to Cataldo Campagna and Anna Burnett Carlo. She was

the youngest of six siblings.

She was a previous member of St. Bartholomew’s Church in Sharpsville and the St. Oliva

Society. She volunteered for Fish Fry Fridays during Lent and for Church fundraisers she

helped make homemade pasta and Christmas cookies. For weddings at the Church, she spent

days with the ladies making every cookie imaginable for “the cookie table.”

Mrs. Beader was an avid reader. She also loved baking, cooking, playing cards and Yahtzee

but her seven daughters were her greatest joy.

Her husband, William F. Beader whom she married on June 24, 1948, passed away on

September 14, 1984. Besides her parents, husband, and siblings, she was preceded in death

by a daughter, Michaelene.

Sharpsville, PA; Francine Folgner of Bluffton, SC; and Jeannine (Nick) Gripp of Charlotte, NC;
