SHARPSVILLE, Pennsylvania (MyValleyTributes) – Kelly Joan Rouzer of Sharpsville, Pennsylvania passed away Tuesday, September 26, 2023, after years of battling chronic health issues.

Born March 1, 1959 to LeRoy and the late Priscilla (Bauder) Rouzer, she was the eldest of five daughters.

She had various employers over the years but her experience as a medical receptionist at the UPMC, Shenango Valley Campus, in Farrell, was a great joy to her. Her declining health made her leave that position years ago, however, she took pride in being able to serve and enjoyed many great memories and stories from nights in the “ER”.

She had many friends locally, as well as in the Zelienople area, where she grew up.

She attended Seneca Valley Schools.

She will be missed by many. Kelly is survived by her sons, Joshua Rouzer of Sharon, Pennsylvania and Jacob Rouzer of Mercer, Pennsylvania; her father, LeRoy Rouzer; sisters, Marcy Ingles of Acworth, Georgia, Kristen Rouzer of Sharpsville, Katie LaCamera of Hermitage, Pennsylvania and Megan Pizor of Sharpsville and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Priscilla and her beloved aunt, Ann, whom she affectionately called “Ann Buddy”.

Her family wishes to thank the staff of The Grove in New Wilmington and Great Lakes Hospice, who cared for her over the years; their love and compassion carried her through many challenges and ultimately a peaceful transition.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Jacob Rouzer in her honor, 360 North Maple Street, Mercer, PA 16137

Arrangements are private and entrusted to Briceland Funeral Home. Expressions of sympathy may be left for her family at www.bricelandfuneralservice.com.
