Marian Beaudoin, age 87, of North Huntingdon, PA, died on Monday, November 9, 2026. She was born in Duquesne, PA, on December 19, 1938, and was the daughter of the late Michael and Mary Koresko Sabol. She married the late Benoit Raymond Beaudoin in August of 1969, and the next year their son, the late Christopher Michael, was born.

They served in the chapter as officers for many years. Marian was dedicated to rescuing stray cats and enjoyed her monthly get-togethers with her fellow cat rescue friends. She was a member of Mary, Mother of God Parish, St. Angela Merici Church.
Marian is survived by her nieces; nephews; grand-nieces; grand-nephews; sister-in-law, Bernadette Sabol; and beloved cat, Peaches.
