Dorothy Legutko, 100 – Faith and Family Were Most Important

Dorothy Legutko, age 100, of Port Carbon, passed away on Wednesday, May 20, 2020.

Born in Mahanoy City on April 1, 1920, she was the daughter of the late Leon and Anna (Sockell) Corson.

Dorothy was a graduate of St. Stephen’s High School, Class of 1937. She worked as a housekeeper for over 60 years.

Dorothy was a lifelong member of St. Stephen Roman Catholic Church in Port Carbon and she was a devote Catholic who attended daily mass.

Most important in Dorothy’s life were her faith and her family.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years, Francis Legutko in 1990, a son Edward Legutko in 1987, a son-in-law Raymond Barth in 2018, two brothers: Nicholas and Daniel Corson, and a sister Alberta Dodd.

Dorothy is survived by daughter Joan DiMarcello and her husband Richard, State College; son Robert Legutko and his wife Georgine, New Boston; daughter Sandra Barth, Bethlehem; daughter Susan Legutko, Minersville; seven grandchildren: Jill, Karen, Russell, Robert, Brian, David, and Anne; 11 great-grandchildren; brother Robert Corson, Pottsville; and numerous nieces and nephews.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be announced and celebrated at a later date due to the pandemic situation.

The Robert A. Evans Jr. Funeral Home in Port Carbon is in charge of arrangements. Please send condolences to www.robertaevansjrfh.com.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to St. Stephen’s Cemetery Fund @ 250 East Hancock St., Saint Clair, PA 17970.
