Ladies Auxiliary to the Beaver County Sportsman Club, overseeing Friday evening fish fries, and Ladies
Auxiliary to the Monaca 4th Ward Fire Department. She also belonged to the Ladies Auxiliary of both the

was a regular member of the Ladies Wednesday Matinee League at Sheffield Lanes in Aliquippa.
She is survived by her son Carl J. Jagerski Jr. (Pamela), Ambridge, daughter Susan Jagerski, Monaca, sister
