Hayley Gill Mangerie, 44, of Chippewa Township, passed away peacefully on September 30th 2026, surrounded by the people who loved her most after a courageous four-year battle with glioblastoma.
She was born on May 24th, 1982, at UPMC Jameson Hospital in New Castle and spent her life being so many things to so many people. She was a devoted mother, wife, daughter, sister, granddaughter, and friend. Above all else, she loved her family deeply and was someone whose presence could never be replaced.
Hayley graduated from Geneva College in 2008 with a degree in accounting. She worked as Payroll Administrator at Littell Steel and was known for being strong, honest, caring, and genuine. She had a way of making the people closest to her feel loved and was always true to herself, carrying an honesty and sincerity that those who knew her came to love.
She is survived by her husband, Michael Mangerie, her daughter, Alivia Rabick, her parents, Gary and Terry Gill, her sisters, Courtney Marsilio and her husband, Matt, and Kylee Davis and her husband, Chris, her stepchildren, Anna Mangerie and Ricky Mangerie and her nieces, Sophia Kline, Lilly Taylor, and Oaklynn Davis and her sisters-in-law: Karen (Dave) Zito, Kathy (Robert) Hamilton, Kristine VanKirk, and Leslie (David) Saliba.

For four years, Hayley faced glioblastoma with an incredible amount of strength and resilience. While cancer became part of her story, it never defined who she was. She will be remembered for the way she loved, her loyalty to family and friends, her honesty, personality, and the countless memories she leaves behind.
Friends will be received on Tuesday, October 6th from 2–4 P.M. and 6–8 P.M. in the GABAUER-LUTTON FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, INC., Chippewa Township, 117 Blackhawk Road, Beaver Falls, who was in charge of her arrangements.
