Sporio, Sr. and Robert "Bobby" Sporio; her grandson Billy Sporio; and her siblings Helen Zoltan, Sue Kadar, Ann Havrilla, and Michael and John Berchok.  She is survived by her children Marian (the late Donald "Doc") Geletko of Elizabeth Twp. and Carmen Sporio of Pittsburgh; her grandchildren Sherry (Roger) Cox, Judy (Shawn) Kramer, Donald (Mindy) Geletko, Pete (Michelle) Sporio, and Richard C.
