It is with great sadness the family of Robert E. "Buss" Reilly, 78, of Oklahoma Borough, announces his passing Wednesday, April 1, 2009. Our lives were so enriched because of him, as he was a loving husband, a very caring father and a grandfather with the kindest, most genuine heart. We all will miss him dearly. Born Sept. 9, 1930, in Vandergrift, to the late Lawrence J. and Helen A. (Honadle) Reilly. Robert resided in the Vandergrift area all his life. He was employed in the engineering department at U.S. Steel Corporation for 33 years, retiring in 1985. Robert was a veteran of the Korean War, having served in the Navy from 1948 to 1952. He was a graduate of Vandergrift High School, class of 1948. Robert attended St. James Roman Catholic Church, Apollo.
