Obituary of Mary Angeline Elliott

Mary Angeline "Angie" Elliott of Goshen, formally Woodridge, NY, passed away on September 30, 2020, surrounded by her loving family. Angie had many accomplishments during her 85 years. She was a caring daughter, loving wife, a selfless mother and a smart businesswoman. She was adored by her parents who joyed in all she did. She spent much of her early life being a supportive wife to Richard and the most incredible mother to her 5 children. She encouraged them all to seek out experiences and try new things, making sure that they understood that life was full of fun and excitement, you just needed to be open to it and to give it a try. Angie's home was always open to those who wanted to stop by. You were normally met with a cup of coffee and whatever new recipe she was trying out. Her door opened quite often as she was a someone that everyone enjoyed visiting with. No matter what, you were always met with a genuine smile, a listening ear and an understanding, yet truthful exchange. You always left Angie smiling and if you were one of the lucky ones, a giggle to follow. Besides the kitchen, Angie tried her hand at and succeed at ice skating, horseback riding, painting, golf, sewing and in her spare time, an avid reader. She prided her family in the ability to talk about many topics and subjects with a clear and often clever understanding and point of view. Angie owned Angies's Attic in Middletown, NY and she was co-owner of Elliott's Office Furniture located next door with her husband Richard. Later, after his passing, she continued on running the business, demonstrating the strength, resolve and fortitude she was known for. Without a doubt, the accomplishment that meant the most to Angie was her family, her children, her grandchildren and the greatgrand babies which was apparent by the love and devotion she showered on each and every one. She is the daughter of the late Edward Wright and Harriet Gerow of Liberty. The wife of the late Richard Elliott of Woodridge and the proud Grandma of Casey and Hunter Elliott. We take comfort in knowing she will finally receive the hugs that she has missed and yearned for since their own journeys began. She leaves behind to cherish her memory her children Cathy Kruly (Jay), Billy Elliott (Louise), Bobby Elliott (Michelle), Dawn Elliott-Pistone (Perry) and Susie Elliott; her grandchildren: Matthew, Jason, Amanda, Samantha, Richie, Lauren, Christopher and Austin; her great-grandchildren Liam and Charlotte; as well as several nieces and nephews.
