Syble L (Kitty) Mort, 90, of Weirton passed away Sunday June 20, 2010 at Harbor Chase Retirement Community in Rock Hill, SC, where she had resided since 2008. Born January 3, 1920 in Weirton, WV, Kitty was the daughter of the late J. Harve and Margaret Tice Beatty. She was preceded in death by her husband Richard (Dick) Mort in 1996 whom she married October 25, 1939, daughter Kathy Roberts, sisters Jean Beatty, Alice Beatty Dear, and brothers Earl Beatty, Drexel Beatty and Melvin Beatty. Kitty enjoyed life to the fullest and loved her family and friends. She brought humor and delight to those around her and had a positive impact on more people than she ever realized. She was a talented bridge player and her bridge lunches with “the girls” brought her great joy. Always very social, she was a member of Glamour Girls, Candy Twig, Tea Rose and an honorary member of the Weirton Elks. She was a longtime member of Pleasant Valley Country Club where she served two terms as President of the Women’s Golf Association. She was a past president Beta Sigma Phi where she was honored with the Order of the Rose degree and voted Girl of the Year. She was a member of the First United Methodist Church, Weirton. She was a 1938 graduate of New Cumberland High School. Kitty is survived by her son Richard and his wife Vaughna Mort of Rock Hill, SC, brother Carl (Buck) Beatty of Tampa FL, 6 grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. Visitation is 3-7 PM Wednesday at the Greco Hertnick Funeral Home, 3219 Main Street Weirton, WV. Funeral services will be conducted 11 AM Thursday in the funeral home. Rev. Chuck Jerman will preside. Interment will follow at Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens, Weirton. The family would like to extend a special thank you to the wonderful staff at Harbor Chase and Interim Hospice.

    John and Scott were so kind and considerate when our dog Stewie passed away. He died in his sleep on a Friday night. They were here in 15 minutes on a Saturday morning. We appreciate their kindness and professionalism during a difficult day. We have nothing but great things to say about this organization.

    Thank you!

    My elderly mother died very unexpectedly from COVID.  Fortunately for us, she'd planned for her passing years prior.  The funeral home took such good care in making sure that her wishes were carried out.  There was one change due to unforeseen circumstances on my mom's part; and they were very upfront with that.  I feel like she could not have gotten any better care.  I also feel like the family could not have had any better care.  They were very sensitive to our family's grief for an unexpected passing of a loved one.  Prior to meeting with the funeral home, I was warned about funeral homes, in general, trying to upsell families on what was already planned by the deceased.  I can honestly and happily say that such things never took place.  For example, my mom did not want to have flowers unless they were sent by others.  They didn't have to tell us that.  In our grief, they could have sold us anything; but they didn't.  They were honest and extremely helpful; and I am extremely grateful, and I know my family is as well.

    My heartfelt thanks to Greco's for the wonderful funeral they provided for my husband, who passed away this past summer.
    Anthony,Scot & John were very caring,kind and knowledgeable and fulfilled every request our family had from the Heartfelt Obituary to the moving service with Military Honors to delivering Plants and Gifts to our home following the services.

    At a time like this, one needs kindness,compassion and guidance and they certainly provided that to our family. Our sincere thanks and appreciation for all you did for us and the way you honored my husband’s memory.

    We have nothing but praise for all the Greco-Hertnick Funeral Home employees. At the time of such sorrow in the loss of our son Benton, our family was treated with gentle care and kindness. The quality of care for our son and respect given to him was such a comfort. Thank you.

    My dear mother recently passed away and my father made her funeral arrangements through Greco-Hertnick. Their presentation of her and the service that followed were absolutely beautiful. It was better than I could have imagined, and I am certain that my mother would have been pleased with the staff's professionalism and kindness. In a time of such vast sorrow, I am grateful to know that my mother was ushered into her final journey by a very talented and thoughtful group of people. I thank them all.
