Obituary for Norman "Pee Wee" Seger
Norman Lane Seger (Pee Wee), 87, of Kittanning, passed away November 19,
2020, at St. Andrews Village, Indiana, Pennsylvania.
Born in Green Oak, on October 13, 1933, he was the son of Guy and Freda Seger
and is survived by his wife, Pearl Hohowski Seger , their long-suffering daughter,
Kimberly Seger and her companion, Christopher Bash.
He is also survived by his sisters, Patricia (George) Kovalchik and Karen (James)
Fleming and various nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by sisters,
Edna (Herb) Dimmitt and Ruth (Robert) Houser; brothers, Beryl Dean (Ellie)
McCausland and James “Red” Seger; and family dogs, Smoker, Cindi, Teton,
Misha, Taz and Baron. He would want it noted that he engaged in a lifetime
dislike of cats.
Pee Wee was happiest when operating heavy equipment on a pipeline project for
the International Local 66 Operating Engineers, of which he retired after 48 years.
In his spare time, he enjoyed tinkering with his 1941 Farmall H tractor, riding his
motorcycles and later, his Suzuki trike, working his vegetable garden, devouring
an alarming amount of Cheerios and “PCIR” and dancing with his wife on Saturday
nights. He also derived way too much joy from teasing his co-workers, friends
and family and much to his loved ones’ dismay, had a vast amount of pranks and
nick-names in his arsenal.
Norm is best described as a loyal, loving husband of fifty-four years, a caring
father, a wonderful provider and a good son, brother, friend, work-buddy and
neighbor. He was always there when needed and didn’t wait to be asked to lend
a hand or “a few bucks”. His wife and daughter will always remember him as a
hard working, big-hearted man that they were proud and fortunate to share their
lives with.
He was a member of the Indiana Eagles, the Indiana Moose, The Brush Valley
Antique Tractor Club, Indiana A.B.A.T.E, and a lifetime member of the Shelocta
Sportsman Club. He was also a proud member of the esteemed Elderton
Sandwich House Coffee Club.
Because he didn’t like a fuss (unless he caused it), his family honored his request
that no services occur. The family also requests that no flowers or food be sent to
their homes, although kind words and prayers are always appreciated.
The family would like to thank David and Jennifer Rairigh, of Rairigh-Bence
Funeral Home for their knowledge, patience and compassion. They both made a
heart-breaking time so much easier to endure.
If you would like to honor Pee Wee, please remember him gleefully carrying out a
prank or delivering one of his (sometimes) inappropriate zingers.
Memorial donations may be made to SNIPP (Spay Neuter Indiana PA’s Pets), 2559 Warren
Road, Indiana, PA 15701. Although Pee Wee would have had choice words at the
thought of donations in his name being made to a stinkin’ cat charity, he would
definitely support the organization’s mission of creating a world with fewer cats.
