Conrad Petrick, age 89, of North Huntingdon, died June 12, 2021, at Point Pleasant in North Versailles. Born March 23, 1932, in McKeesport, he was the son of the late Joseph and Anna Petrick and husband of the late Geraldine "Gerry" Petrick for 57 years.  
Conrad was a 1949 graduate of McKeesport High School and would then enlist in the Army.  After his time spent in the Army, he would attend Duquesne University, where he graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Physics.  Upon graduating, he worked for Gulf Oil and then Chevron as a physicist.  Conrad had his private pilot's license for 50 years and stored his plane at Rostraver Airport. He was a brilliant man, the one the whole family went to, to ask any question about any subject.  Conrad enjoyed working on cars and frequently volunteered his time to help his son-in-law at his auto repair business.   
He is survived by children Denise Yandrlic, Karen (Robert) Robb, and the late Arlene Petrick; grandchildren, Rachel (Brett) Skelley, Elizabeth (Jesse) Lape, and Victoria (Patrick) Kavinski; great-grandchildren, Vaughn and Margot Skelley and Thomas Lape.
He was also preceded in death by a brother and five sisters.
Arrangements were entrusted to Jaycox-Jaworski Funeral Home & Crematory. A memorial service will be scheduled at a later date.
Memorial contributions are suggested to Christ United Methodist Church of North Huntingdon, 2800 Coulterville Rd., McKeesport, PA 15131.
