Edeltraut "Eddy" Angelika Markiewicz, 70, of McCandless Township, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 2, 2020. She was born on March 6, 1950, daughter of the late Hans and Irmgard (Lindner) Gaertner.

Eddy was a loving wife, self-less mother and nurturing grandmother. She loved cross-stitching, enjoyed various crafts and loved spending time with family. While illness may have diminished Eddy physically, the difference she made in lives of others will continue to be felt eternally.

Left to cherish her memory is her loving husband, John Markiewicz, Jr.; two children, John Markiewicz III, Rebecca Markiewicz; one grandchild, Hunter Markiewicz; two sisters, Sigrun Mapes (Toby), Monika Bontempo and several nieces and nephews.

Friends will be received at the Eloise B. Kyper Funeral Home, Inc. 2702 Mt. Royal Blvd. Glenshaw, PA., on Thursday, May 7, 2020 from 5:00PM-7:00PM with a private Funeral Service for family that will immediately follow in the Funeral Home Chapel at 7:00PM. The CDC regulations of 10 people in the building will be strictly enforced.

Interment will be held privately at Mount Royal Cemetery in Glenshaw, PA.

In Lieu of flowers, the family asks that you kindly donate to National Kidney Foundation.
