With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of John Cellerini of Gibsonia on Wednesday, December 24, 2025 at the age of 61. John grew up in Christy Park in McKeesport PA.

John loved watching all types of sporting events, but especially looked forward to the football season and fantasy football. He loved discussing trivia with friends and family and would amaze everyone with what his mind was able to retain. In the summer, John enjoyed playing golf and relaxing in his pool.
