Elizabeth B Fanelli, a beloved lifelong and proud member of the Harrison community, passed away peacefully on December 21, 2023, at the age of 74. She was born on May 4, 1949, in Indiana to her loving parents Paul and Margaret (Richey) Bauman. She graduated William Henry Harrison High School class of 1967. Elizabeth was a remarkable woman who excelled in various aspects of her life. She dedicated herself to the field of nursing, obtaining a bachelor’s degree and working tirelessly in a local hospital, mostly in the operating rooms. Her commitment to caring for others was unmatched and she touched countless lives throughout her career. She was a leader in her field and was given the opportunity to work for Laser Centers of America where she would train doctors how to use the lasers in new procedures. She was an esteemed member of the Queen City Dog Training Club and participated in agility course contests and training dogs even from her wheelchair. Her diagnosis with multiple sclerosis in 1989 never deterred her spirit. Elizabeth faced the challenges head-on and lived life to the fullest. She was an inspiration to all who knew her as she embraced each day with resilience and determination despite her health struggles. Family meant the world to Elizabeth. She was a devoted mother to her daughters, Angela Fanelli, Erin (John) Helton, Katie (Omar) Jimenez. She not only provided them with love and support, but she also passed on her skills and taught them to be independent, loving and strong mothers. In addition to her daughters, Elizabeth leaves behind her cherished grandchildren, Sophia Fanelli, Zachary Helton, Emma Fanelli, Trishey Doyle, Camilla, Soloman, and Adaline Jimenez; beloved siblings, Molly (Gene) Ziegler and Hank (Chela) Bauman; numerous nieces and nephews.
