Swidzinski

Betty C. Swidzinski, 99, of Butler, passed away peacefully on Thursday, Sept. 10, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. She was greeted in heaven by her late husband, Albert, to celebrate his birthday.

She was born July 5, 1927, to the late Albert Yost and Margaret (Rocheisen) Yost.

She loved to cook and bake, and no one ever left her home hungry. A wonderful host, she could always whip up a meal in minutes, and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren knew they were never leaving without a cookie. She also enjoyed polka dancing, her card club and a good game of 500 Bid.

Above all, she was devoted to her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and her family never doubted how deeply she loved them. She was always present, always ready to listen and her wonderful stories will be treasured and remembered for years to come.

She is survived by sons, Gary Swidzinski and Rodney (Frances) Swidzinski; grandchildren, Tim Swidzinski, Corey Swidzinski, Jami (Jeff) Conaway and Debi (Alex) Giocondo; great-grandchildren, Ryan, Raegan, Evan, Blake, Jackson and Ethan; daughter-in-law, Carol Mays; and a special niece, Pam Dreher.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Albert Swidzinski; son, Larry Swidzinski; granddaughter, Chrisi Swidzinski; sisters, Hilda Hydak and Gertrude Hattz; and brother, William “Bill” Yost.

The family would like to give a special thank you to her caregivers, Kathy, Bonnie, Sherri, Jane and Donna.
