Obituary

Thelma M. (Setting) Andreas, 72, a resident of Beaver Falls her entire life, passed away peacefully on March 2, 2020 at home surrounded by her family.

Born September 29, 1947, in New Brighton, she was the daughter of the late Joseph and Betty (Klear) Setting.  She loved her job and colleagues at Macy’s Department Store working in various cosmetic departments.  She also owned and operated a Beauty Salon for many years.  She loved and cared for all of her many clients with many becoming dear friends.  She had a passion for giving and making people smile and feel better about themselves.  She not only made them more beautiful on the outside, she made them feel more beautiful on the inside.  She was warm and welcoming to all and will be dearly missed.

Her strong will to live, unwavering faith and trust in the Lord gave her strength and peace as she fiercely battled against her many afflictions.  She showed us how to live and how to pass with grace and dignity.

She was blessed with a large and loving family and is survived by her long-time companion, Jimmy Topper.  She was a very loving and devoted Mother of two sons, Sean (Carrie) Andreas and Seth Andreas.  She was the adored Grammie of four grandsons, Kaiden Andreas, Kobe Andreas, Gabriel Andreas and Christian Andreas.  She was the loving and loyal sister of Jo Anne Setting and Terri (Setting) Marshall (Sam Stanchak).  She was blessed with two nephews, Bradley (Daniela) Marshall and Ryan (Rebecca) Marshall, one great nephew, Joseph Marshall, three great nieces, Averi Marshall, Gianna Marshall and Addison Marshall along with many other first, second and third cousins and many more family members.  Thelma was also blessed with so many dear friends that wrapped her in a blanket of love and support throughout her entire life but especially in her last days when she needed them the most.

A very special thank you to Lynne Youngdahl, Private Hospice Nurse and Gateway Hospice for the compassionate care and comfort they provided to our dear Thelma.  Her family is forever grateful for helping to grant her wish of passing peacefully at home surrounded by family. The last few weeks of her life provided many wonderful moments that are now cherished memories.

A celebration of life will be held for family and friends on Friday, March 6 for viewings from 2 to 4 pm and 6 to 8 pm in the Gabauer-Lutton Funeral Home & Cremation Services, Inc. 117 Blackhawk Rd, Chippewa Twp., www.gabauerfamilyfuneralhomes.com., and Saturday from 9:30 until the time of  service at 10:30am. The service will be conducted by Pastor Sam DeMarco of New Brighton Christian Assembly.  Pastor Sam and all of the members of New Brighton Christian Assembly brought such joy to Thelma and elevated her spiritual journey with God along with giving her a Church Family where she felt so warm, welcomed and loved by all.

Interment to follow in Sylvania Hills Memorial Park.

Thelma was passionate about the Lord and helping others in need and asks that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to New Brighton Christian Assembly (www.visitnbca.com) or St. Jude Children’s Hospital (www.stjude.org) to help end childhood cancers.

    The Lord blessed me when he put my beloved Thelma in my life. Over the years we were each other’s strength. My Thelma was not only my friend, but a true sister. I will miss her greatly until we meet again in paradise. Thelma I miss you already.

    I keep expecting to see your name on my phone. We talked and laughed every day. There are no words to express how much I will miss you. I could put the best memories I have of us and how much fun we had, but my Macy’s friends know that I just can’t post them here. We laughed until the tears ran down our cheeks. Remember what I said to you when you were so very tired. I want that sign. I’ll know it’s from you. When I get there, I want you to be waiting to meet me. I love you and will talk to you daily. Bye my dear Thelie !! Till we laugh again ❤️

    A lovely lady with a good heart and dry wit. She was a welcoming person at Kaufman’s when I first started working there in 1999. She is a bright memory for me.
