Kenneth 'Kenny' Matthew Hayman

Kenneth “Kenny” Matthew Hayman

August 9, 1992 – October 12, 2025

Kenneth “Kenny” Matthew Hayman, 33, of Liberty Borough, formerly of Elizabeth Forward, was tragically taken from this world on October 12, 2025. Born on August 9, 1992, in Pittsburgh, PA, Kenny’s vibrant spirit, loyal heart, and unforgettable smile left an indelible mark on everyone who knew him.

Kenny was preceded in death by his loving parents, Carol McKeone Loving and Kenneth E. Hayman. His mother, Carol, passed away suddenly when Kenny was only 19 years old, and his father, Kenneth, passed away prior to his birth. From that time forward, Kenny was lovingly raised and guided by his aunts, Chris (Kyra) McKeone, who became his “second moms” and steadfast anchors throughout his life.

Kenny is survived by his devoted partner, Brittany Koval, and their beautiful 10-month-old daughter, Hazley Lynn, who was the light of his life. He is also survived by his cherished siblings: William J. (Elyse) Loving, Kenneth E. (Renata) Hayman, Jr., Wayne R. (Lashanna) Hayman, and Marsha L. Hayman. He also leaves behind numerous loving aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family, and dear friends who will miss him deeply.

A graduate of Elizabeth Forward High School, Class of 2011, Kenny was an accomplished wrestler who carried that same strength, determination, and resilience into his adult life. Since 2017, he built a successful career as an ironworker with Iron Workers Local #3, where he was respected for his strong work ethic, camaraderie, and dedication.

Kenny was also known by many as Swayze 1%er, a proud member of the War Dog Motorcycle Club – Pittsburgh Chapter. Within the club, he was a loyal brother and a great friend to everyone he met. Swayze 1%er may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

Kenny will be remembered for his big personality, adventurous spirit, and unwavering loyalty to those he loved. He was an outdoorsman at heart—happiest when surrounded by nature, country music, and the freedom of the open road. His infectious laughter, mischievous grin, and eyes that could light up a room made every gathering brighter. To know Kenny was to experience a genuine friend—one who lived life to the fullest and inspired others to do the same.

Family and friends will be received at 362 Rocco Drive, Hillsville, PA 16132, on Friday, October 31, from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., and Saturday, November 1, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. A funeral service will follow at 1:00 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions to support Kenny and Brittany’s daughter, Hazley Lynn Hayman, will be graciously accepted for a trust fund by Chris McKeone or Brittany Koval at P. O. Box 269, Irwin, PA, 15642.

Funeral arrangements are entrusted to The William F. and Roger M. DeCarbo Funeral Home, 926 Cunningham Avenue, New Castle, PA. Online condolences may be offered at www.williamrogerdecarbo.com

James P. 'Jimmy' Medure

James “Jimmy” Medure, 84, of Neshannock Township, passed away peacefully on October 8, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. He was born on November 27, 1940, the son of the late Peter and Adeline (Carbone) Medure. Jimmy was married to Rosemary (Juliano) Medure for 59 years. For over 30 years, Jimmy was the owner of a New Castle cornerstone, Medure’s Restaurant and Lounge.

Upon returning home, Jimmy honed his skills as a charismatic salesman, working for several years as a salesperson at Haney’s Furniture Store, before establishing his legacy at Medure’s.

Built on the concept of Italian Fine dining, but never losing its foundation of a family experience, Medure’s became recognized in national food and travel publications as a western Pennsylvania destination for first dates, special occasions, and an unforgettable night out. Jimmy greeted every patron by name and an embrace, making each diner feel like family.

Truly a family affair, Jimmy’s mother, sister and aunts prepared the homemade pasta and Italian dishes, his father-in-law cut every steak in-house, his wife managed the payroll, and his children, nieces, nephews and countless family members staffed the bar, dining floor and kitchen.

In his free time, Jimmy enjoyed Sunday dinners with family, attending his grandchildren’s events and cheering on Pittsburgh sports teams.

In addition to his wife, Jimmy is survived by three children James Patrick Medure (Erin Doran), Jason Medure (Bobbi Marshall), and Joshua Medure (Dana Flora), all of New Castle, 9 grandchildren, James Paul (Blakely), Anthony, Joshua (Angelina, fiancé), Juliana, Nina, Mara, Nico, Dante and Italia, brother Matthew (Darlene) Medure, sister Patricia Cook, sister-in-law Patricia Casalandra, and numerous nieces and nephews.
