John Cummings Obituary

John F. Cummings, 67, of Plum, passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family, on Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2025. Son of the late John P. and Mary M. (McDonough) Cummings. Beloved husband for 44 years of Mary Ann (Arrigonie) Cummings. Loving father of Christopher (Shannon) Cummings, Kelly (Stephen) Bechtold, and Ryan (Chelsea) Cummings. Devoted grandfather of Ava, Jackson, Mckenna, Maya, Logan, and Valerie. Brother of Mary Pat (late Robert) Mueller, George (late Paula), Michael (Barb), Thomas, and Timothy (Aliza). Nephew of John "Jack" (Marguerite "Koke") McDonough. Also survived by many nieces, nephews, and in-laws. Our beloved Pap, a truly generous, kind, and loving man, touched the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know him. Pap was the heart of the family. A steady presence whose warmth, humor, and gentle spirit made every moment spent with him a treasure. Spending time with his family and friends brought him great joy. He looked forward to his fishing trips with his Uncle Jack and his annual hunting adventure to Arkansas. Though he is no longer with us, his legacy of love and kindness will always remain in our hearts. Friends were received at MAURICE L. KNEE LTD. FUNERAL HOME, 7663 Saltsburg Road, Plum, PA 15239. Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated at St. John the Baptist R. C. Church of Holy Family Parish, and interment followed in Plum Creek Cemetery. If desired and in lieu of flowers, the Cummings family suggests memorial contributions to the Cardiothoracic Surgical Intensive Care Unit at Allegheny General Hospital, Allegheny Health Network, PO Box 535604, Pittsburgh, PA 15253 https://www.supportahn.org/.
