Betty Jane “BJ” Elliott

August 24, 1931

– July 26, 2015

Betty Jane (BJ) Elliott left her friends and family on July 26, after spending an amazing few months opening her home for all to stop by, sharing her gifts of listening, observing and affirming without judgment, and connecting via phone with her dear ones. The smile on her face gave reassurance of a life well lived and a preparedness for the next adventure. Her passion for peace inspired all those around her.

In BJ’s memory, please donate to the United Methodist Committee on Relief (www.umcor.org) or the Ghost Ranch Foundation in Abiquiu, NM (www.ghostranch.org), or the charity of your choice. You are also invited to be intentional in doing a peaceful act within your family, community, country or world. Our actions can make a difference.

There will be a gathering of friends and loved ones in celebration of BJ’s life at 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 23, in the Fellowship Hall at Langley United Methodist Church.
