Eugenia “Jeanie” Slutyak Longcrier, age 82, of Duquesne, passed away at home on March 3, 2021. Born in Duquesne on August 3, 1938, she was the daughter of the late John and Helen (Potoma) Slutyak Sr. Jeanie was a graduate of Duquesne High School and the Robert Morris School Secretarial Division and over the years worked at Alcoa and US Steel, ultimately retiring from Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. In 1976 she married Alfred M. Longcrier and, sadly, was widowed upon his untimely death in 1982. Jeanie was a lifelong active member of the former St. Nicholas R.O. Church, Duquesne, President of the St. Nicholas R.O. Cemetery Corporation and current parishioner of St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church, McKeesport. A feisty, independent woman, with a dry sense of humor, Jeanie was dedicated to her faith, her church and her family. She was a lifelong fan of the Pittsburgh sports teams.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her older siblings, John Slutyak Jr. and Clara Slutyak Prine, and her twin brother, Eugene Slutyak. She is survived by her nieces, Cynthia (Robert) Averill of Wappingers Falls, NY and Carolyn (Peter) Freedman of Roxborough, CO, and her great nieces and nephews. The family is grateful for the longtime friendship and assistance provided to Jeanie by Aron Michael Lesko. Private visitation only. Friends are invited to attend the Committal Service at 11:30 a.m., on Friday, March 12, 2021 at St. Nicholas R.O. Cemetery, West Mifflin, with Very Rev. Stevo Rocknage officiating.
