Kathy Bushik, 84, passed away on August 18th, 2025. She was born on May 17th, 1941, the daughter of the late Andrew Bushik and Kathryn Chelak Bushik. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brother. Kathy was loved by her cousins and many friends over the years. She was a colorful character who loved to cook and entertain for those she loved. Cooking was a passion for Kathy. She was a most generous hostess and was willing to share her talents with anyone who was interested in learning or sampling her cooking skills. Kathy was also a huge animal lover, always giving to animal charities and providing a loving home to her two rescue dogs, Gidget and Boomer. She worked hard, laboring as a bartender, steel worker, and custodian. Her custodial job at Community College of Beaver County added many long-time friendships to her life, and she did her best to maintain those relationships over the years. Kathy brought laughter to many people, even up to the end of her life, where she shared her vibrant personality with the nurses and staff of her nursing home and hospice care. She will be deeply missed by all her friends and her two special cousins, Regina and Carol.
