Patricia Ann Dewitt Elliott Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Patricia Ann DeWitt Elliott passed away Saturday, July 1, at the McLean Home in Simsbury, surrounded by her family. She was 85 and had been in declining health for some years. Mrs. Elliott was born in Hartford to J. Doyle and Marjorie DeWitt, and attended the Oxford School and Middlebury College. She married Brig Elliott after graduation, and with him lived in Brooklyn, Missouri, Kansas, Maine, and West Hartford, where she raised three children and participated in a wide variety of social and charitable causes including the Junior League, Garden Club, Theater Group, and Samaritans. For many years, she worked as a teacher’s aide, art teacher, and librarian at the American School for the Deaf, and was active in many volunteer roles at West Hartford’s First Church of Christ Congregational for over 50 years. Mrs. Elliott deeply enjoyed her family and many friends, particularly in family vacations at the beach, whether in Maine, Cape Cod, Rhode Island, or Hampstead Hill. She also played bridge, and golfed and bowled at the Hartford Golf Club with her husband. Her eldest daughter, Amanda, passed away last year, but she is survived by two children, Brig Elliott, Jr., and Victoria Elliott, who wish to offer thanks to her close friend Lyn, the nurses and workers at McLean, Bobby, Diana, Martie, and Kim, and her relatives and friends who came often to visit. Mom, you were the best of mothers, and we love you and miss you deeply. A memorial service will be held at 2 PM on Monday, July 10, in the chapel of the First Church of Christ Congregational, 12 South Main St., West Hartford.
