After a two-year term as a U.S. Navy Corpsman, Jon Sweeney provided many
years of dedicated service as a registered nurse for the American Bridge division
of U.S. Steel Corporation, at the DT Watson Home for Crippled Children, and in
the office of the Ambridge Health Department. He retired from Allegheny General
Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he provided compassionate care in
the Children’s and Adolescent Unit. Jon was a kind, gentle and caring man who was loved by all who knew him. He
enjoyed spending time with family, flower gardening and listening to his wife,
Carolyn, play piano. He was a member of the Sewickley Baptist Church for more than 30 years where
he also served as Trustee and a member of the choir. While in North Carolina, he
was a member of First Baptist Church of Indian Trail.
