Delores M. Broscious “loving wife, mother, sister, and Gigi”
Delores M. “Dee” Broscious, 70, of Shinglehouse, went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, May 14, 2024, in Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY, with her loving family by her side, after a courageous battle with breast cancer.
Born on Thursday, November 26, 1953, in Coudersport, she was a daughter of Randall B. and Iva I. Knowlton Ayers. On October 11, 1986 in the Sunbury Bible Church, Sunbury, she married Michael D. Broscious, who survives.
Dee was a graduate of Oswayo Valley High School, Shinglehouse, Class of 1972 and was also a graduate of the former Olean Business Institute in Olean, NY. For many years, Dee was employed by McDonald’s in Coudersport, choosing to retire in 2019 and starting her greatest journey yet- a caregiver for 3 grandchildren under four. Spending time teaching her grandchildren lessons about faith, love, and life brought her unsurmountable joy.
Dee was a member of the Bell Run Union Church, and also attended the First Baptist Church in Shinglehouse. She was a volunteer and member of the Oswayo Valley Senior Center. She was an avid sports fan and card collector. During baseball season rooting on the New York Yankees, and during football season, the Buffalo Bills. Dee was very involved in many capacities with Potter County Special Olympics. She loved playing bingo and sitting around the card table weekly playing Texas Hold ‘Em with her brothers- her greatest love was her family, especially her grandchildren, who affectionately called her “Gigi”.
Have you ever given any thought to what makes a person important or valuable? Does one’s profession make a person more valuable or important? Is it their wealth or social status? What about their education, does that make them more valuable or important? What is it? What determines it? Can or could it be that value and importance has nothing to do with any of these? Is it possible that the most valuable and important people are the most inconspicuous people around us?
Jesus, in Matthew 20:25-28 had much to say about what it means to be a servant but sadly many want to be someone or somebody. There aren’t many that want to take on a role of a servant, particularly in the manner that Jesus describes as being a slave. But if you think of it, there are some in our everyday life that have in some sense taken on a role of servant, and some might even think of themselves as being slaves. But it is also a position of great importance and one that often comes with great honor. Who are these people? We call them mothers, or more fondly, “Mom.” They sacrifice a great deal. With the birth of a child their whole world changes. Concern for taking care of their own needs and desires suddenly becomes interrupted by the needs of another. They probably never thought about what this new role was going to bring, but it brings with it a great deal of responsibility. One that interrupts their sleep, quiet time, and everything else you can imagine.
Most mothers put the cares, needs and desires of their children above their own. Even for those that juggle careers with motherhood never fully get a break from being “Mom.” They may command others through their profession while sitting up with a sick child at night simply because they’re “Mom.” We may not think of mothers as being servants, but they have given up a lot to bring you into the world. Perhaps it’s time to thank them for their sacrifice. Think about it.

Over the past week, three Pennsylvania College of Technology spring sports teams got a taste at the top, two (men’s golf and women’s softball) in NCAA Division III national and regional competitions, respectively, and the third (archery) at the outdoor national championships as the 2023-24 athletic seasons came to a close.
GOLF
As the United East Champion, Penn College entered the national championship tournament field of 43 teams and 221 players with hopes of bettering the previous year’s 37th-place finish.
Although failing to make the cut to 18 teams after Tuesday’s second round, the Wildcats finished 29th with Peyton Mussina of Montoursville recording the best back-to-back rounds of his collegiate career 69-68—137 and tied for second, Gavin Baer of Bainbridge shooting 79-74—153 tied for 125th, Will Orwig of Mifflintown shooting 76-82—158 and tying for 169th, Trevor Keaton of Lansdale shooting 82-80—162 and tying for 191st, and Gunner Redmond of Lock Haven shooting 81-87—168 and tying for 205th.
As a result of his start, Mussina became the first Wildcat to make the 36-hole cut and continue into the final two rounds on the sport’s biggest stage, where he closed with rounds of 75 and 74 for a 286 and tied for 17th in the country.
