In Loving Memory of Florence ‘Sissy’ Estermyer Keller, 86
A wife, mother and friend
It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of our cherished family member, Florence ‘Sissy’ Estermyer Keller at the age of 86. She departed this world on Sunday, April 20, 2025, at St. John Specialty Care Center in Mars, PA, surrounded by loved ones.
Sissy was born on September 20, 1938, in New Brighton, PA. She was the beloved daughter of Howard and Florence Murray of Beaver Falls, PA, and the twin sister to Sonny Murray of Patterson Heights, PA. She also had an elder sister, Sally Roberts of Lititz, PA.
She was a devoted wife to Orben Keller, to whom she was married for 53 years until his passing in 2012. Together, they raised four children: Patrick Keller (Harmony, PA), Kathleen Taormina (Monaca, PA), Jennifer Simon (Bradfordwoods, PA), and Timothy Keller (Beaver Falls, PA). Her children and family were the great joys of her life.
Sissy was a talented homemaker, an excellent cook, and a master gardener. She loved to sew and quilt, dedicating her life to creating a warm and loving home for her family. Her culinary skills and hospitality were known to all who visited her home.
She is survived by her seven grandchildren: Adam Keller, Megan Balint, Justine Horst, Jonah Simon, Jayne Aulicino, Isaac Keller, and Alivia Keller, and three great-grandchildren: Landon Balint, Capri Balint, and Levi Balint.
Sissy’s spirit lives on in the hearts of those she touched, including her four children:
- Patrick Keller and wife Terri
- Kathleen Taormina and husband Frank
- Jennifer Simon and husband Jay
- Timothy Keller and wife Darci
Her great warmth, kindness, and cherished memories will continue to inspire all who knew her. We find solace in knowing that she is now in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
A private service for immediate family will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital
The final arrangements are entrusted to the Samuel Teolis Funeral Home and Crematory Inc..
