Sheila (McKeever) Glencer Obituary

Sheila Glencer (née McKeever), originally from Drumconrath, County Meath, Ireland, died on Friday, September 5, 2025, after a long journey with dementia. She is survived by her two daughters, Sheila-Marie Glencer (Omaha, NE), and Julia Marie Glencer (Pittsburgh, PA), former husband, William J. Glencer (Sharon, PA), son-in-law, Philip W. Zarone, two grandchildren, Madison Glencer Zarone and Mitchell Aiden Feekin, and three brothers in Ireland, Michael McKeever, Hugh McKeever, and Patrick Flanagan.  Sheila was predeceased by her long-term partner, Thomas J. Fornal of Level Green, as well as her parents, Mary (McConnan) Flanagan and John McKeever, stepfather Thomas Flanagan, and siblings May, John, Margaret, Josephine, and Teresa.   Sheila emigrated from Ireland to the United States in October 1961 and spent the rest of her life in Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh, Ebensburg, Monroeville, and Level Green). She was a joyous woman who loved to make Irish soda bread, chat with the neighbors, walk in the snow, watch the Steelers, and tend to the flowers surrounding her “castle on the corner.”  She worked for many years at David Weis and Miracle Mile Florist. Her light and love have been and will continue to be deeply missed by all who knew her.  Special thanks to the staff at Orion Personal Care Residence in Ross Township for their compassionate care.  A small Celebration of Life service will be held for family and friends on Tuesday, September 9, 2025, at 11 AM in the John M. Dobrinick Funeral Home Inc., 702 7th Street (State Rt. 130) Trafford PA 412-372-3111.
