KEENER MATTHEW DAX It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Matthew Dax Keener, who was known to most as Wheelz. Matt left an imprint on the lives of all he met for the 43 wonderful years he was with us here. Matt loved the city of Pittsburgh, to which he relocated in 2001. It was here he found his love for craft beer and all Pittsburgh sports teams, even the Pirates. He enjoyed spending time with his close friends, who have truly become members of the family. Matt placed the highest priority on caring for others and his close friends, many of whom grew up with him back home, where he forged lifelong friendships at Rocky Grove High School in Franklin, PA. Matt loved live music, dirt track racing, and gol?ng with his buddies, a sport he loved since high school. At the end of his beautiful life, he continued this legacy of caring through organ donation with CORE, changing the lives of at least six people across the country. Matt is survived by his wife of two years, Lori (Farnsworth), originally from Erie, PA. In May of this year, they welcomed a beautiful baby boy, Ryan William. Also surviving are Matthew's mother, Christine Fillgrove; grandmother, Jane LaKari; and several loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and in-laws; he was also an amazing uncle to eight nieces and nephews, two of which proudly call him their Godfather. Matthew was preceded in death by his father, Richard Keener. Friends welcome Sunday, 2-4 and 6-8 p.m., FREYVOGEL-SLATER FUNERAL DIRECTORS , (412) 835-1860, 112 Fort Couch Rd., Bethel Park (Opposite Macy's, South Hills Village).

HUTCHISON JOAN GAINE Age 83, a longtime resident of Pittsburgh, “Joanie” died Wednesday morning, December 26, 2018 in Mars, PA after a long battle with Alzheimer's Disease. Her ?nal months and years were made very comfortable thanks to the efforts of caregivers at Rose Crest Assisted Living and Hospice.   Joan Ann Gaine was born on June 1, 1935 in Neptune City, NJ to immigrants John Gaine and Elizabeth Fitzgerald Gaine of Kenmare, Kerry, Ireland. She attended St. Rose's High School, New Rochelle College and Sorbonne University in Paris. Shortly after college, Joan took a job with the newly formed CIA as a French interpreter and also taught French to students at Blessed Sacrament School. She married Robert Hutchison in 1955 and became a loving and gracious mother of ?ve children in Chevy Chase, MD. In 1969, the family moved to Pittsburgh, PA and built a house in the Fox Chapel area. Besides raising the ?ve children and several dogs, Joanie cared for grandparents, worked for years in the ?nancial services industry including, Prudential Bache Securities, Continental Tax Services, and Bill Few Associates. She always kept active and won many awards at the Pittsburgh Field Club for golf, tennis and paddle tennis. Anyone living in the area would remember her home as being open, inviting, loving and she was gracious to all who entered. Her infectious optimism and upbeat personality would start at the crack of dawn and last all day long. Inspired by Steelers victories, she coined the phrase: “Have a Super Bowl Day!”   Joan was preceded in death by her husband, Robert N. Hutchison; her son, Bob; her sisters, Betty Keegan, Margaret Gaine, and Patricia Magovern. She is survived by four children, Mark (Lucy) Hutchison, Tim (Carolyn) Hutchison, Kerry Hutchison Lecker and Barry (Tracy) Hutchison. “Jojo” as she was known, was beloved and will be greatly missed by her 15 grandchildren, Jackie, Emily and Gavin Hutchison, Sean, Mike, Ryan and Danny Hutchison, Maggie, Katie and Julie Hutchison, Kelsey, Maddie and Ellie Lecker, and Conor and Elizabeth Hutchison.

Carol was born on July 18, 1939 in Pittsburgh's Sheridan neighborhood. She was the third child of Edward and Margaret (Michalena Spada) Coleman's seven children (Thomas, Frank, Carol, Edward, Nancy, Chester and Michael). She graduated from Langley High School and shortly thereafter married the love of her life, Joseph A. Massaro, Jr., on October 1, 1960. In addition to her husband Joe, she was preceded in death by her parents; and her sister, Nancy; she is survived by her four children, Linda, Joe III (Alina), David (Luci), and Steven (Stephanie); her 15 grandchildren, Steven Studnicky (Alex Ellis), Alex Studnicky Gardella (Chris Gardella), So?a Massaro, Olivia Massaro, Carolyn Cost, Marta Massaro, Josie Cost, Isabella Massaro, Meredith Massaro, Charlie Massaro, Elizabeth Massaro, Lily Massaro, Joseph Massaro IV, Ava Massaro, and Charlotte Massaro; and her three great- grandchildren, Gus and Murphy Gardella and Luke Studnicky (born on Christmas Eve).
