Xenia Vranesevich Obituary
Xenia was born December 6, 1949, McKeesport, Pennsylvania to her parents, Milan & Stoyanka (nee Popovich) Vranesevich.
At the age of 2 she had a stroke. She had a brain operation at age 7 and was taken to Boston for her surgery. She worked for US Attorney's Office in Pittsburgh where she worked 32 years and had a retirement party with 32 Attorneys attending her party. Xenia kept in touch with her friends from Pennsylvania.
Xenia attended St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church, in McKeesport, PA since she was a child. She sang in the Church choir for many years. There were a lot of weddings and banquets. Xenia would help placing plates, silverware, coffee cups for all occasions. She was loved by many of the parishioners as well she loved the parishioners. She also attended Sunday School. When Xenia moved to Florida she attended the Orthodox Church of Saint Stephen the Protomartyr. Father Daniel Hickman would often visited Xenia in the Bayview Nursing Home and whenever she was admitted to the hospital there were many other Parishioners that would come to visit. Our daughter-in-law, Rachael, would decorate her room and organize. We would bring our dogs to visit it made her very happy.
Xenia is preceded in death by her parents, Milan & Stoyanka Nee Popovich Vranesevich; brother-in-law, George Russell; and nephew, George Russell III.
Xenia is survived by her siblings, Zora Russell, Milan Vranesevich & Lisa Vranesevich; niece-in-law, Rachel Russell; and great nephew, Dalton Russell.
We will miss our loving caring sister.
May Xenia's Memory Be Eternal.
