Steven Mariana

Steven Mariana, our brave, kind-hearted son, of North Huntingdon, crossed over into God's embrace on Tuesday, June 29, 2021. I am sure his dad was there to hug him, and make sure Steven wasn't getting all the attention. Steven was my second gift from God. Forever 29. Steven was loving, caring and always wanted to lend a helping hand. He loved being around family and friends. He always looked forward to vacationing in Ocean City with the family. Steven liked being with his brothers and sister, whether going to movies or sporting events, or just talking. He enjoyed cooking, but his fishing hobby brought him so much happiness. His dad taught him to fish at a young age, and later taught him how to clean and prepare the fish. Steven's grandparents still see their sweet grandson as a toddler, always giving hugs and kisses, and growing up so fast to become a handsome, loving grandson, who was always quick to hug and thank them for a delicious, great home-cooked meal. He always enjoyed his mother's great cooking, too. Steven will be dearly missed by his mother, Mary Anne (Ternoway) Mariana; his siblings, Matthew, Allison and Anthony Mariana, all of North Huntingdon; grandparents, Michael and Caroline Ternoway, of North Huntingdon, and Bertha (Gebrosky) Mariana, of Delmont; and he is also survived by many aunts, uncles and cousins; and his partner, Robbie Everly, and their two beautiful Labs, Rylie and Cooper, whom Steven adored. He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Henry N. Mariana; and his father, Steven M. Mariana. Steven, as a final act of kindness, was to give life as an organ donor. Our family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at West Penn Hospital who took incredible care of Steven. Friends are welcome from noon to 8 p.m. Friday at WOLFE-VON GEIS FUNERAL HOME INC., 5701 Lincoln Ave., Export, 724-327-1400.
