Elizabeth Ann Miller Obituary
St. Augustine, PA - 86, passed into eternal life January 19, 2026, at her home, surrounded by her loving family. Born Elizabeth Ann Mulligan July 28, 1939, to Harry E. and Nellie B. Mulligan (though Social Security says July 29, but we are going to believe her mother) in St. Augustine, a village in Clearfield Township, Cambria County, Pa. She graduated from Patton High School 1957, worked at the Patton Shirt Factory and then at Sylvania in Altoona. She married Wilfred Paul Miller on October 5, 1963, at St. Augustine Church. Preceded in death by her parents; husband; brother, William Mulligan; brother and sister-in-law, Robert "Moon" and Barbara Mulligan; and brother-in-law, James Huber. Survived by son, Russell P. Miller, MD and his wife, Lori Kosiciki-MIller; her "baby" sister, Sandy Huber; sister-in-law, Patricia A. Miller; brother-in-law, Gary C. Miller (Patricia); and sister-in-law, Delores Miller; and numerous nieces and nephews. Betty Ann was quite literally a lifelong resident of the village of St. Augustine, having died 60 yards from the house in which she was born. She was extremely active in the parish life of St. Augustine. She had been a member of the Sodality of the B.V.M. and then the Altar and Rosary Society, the Catholic Daughters of the Americas, and served at various times on the Parish Pastoral Council, the building committee, and the picnic committee. For decades, Betty served as the chair lady of the dining room at the annual picnic and sacristan caring for the altar linens. She positively influenced the lives of generations of young people in the area by teaching C.C.D., helping with the annual vacation Bible school, being a band mom, and as "lunch lady" at Cambria Heights Schools. She was a member of Patton Garden Club and the Patton Music Club. She loved all kinds of flowers and was an avid gardener. However, her true passion was cooking and baking. Caring for people by feeding them was Betty Ann's love language and she excelled at creating holiday dinners and for many years cooked wedding and funeral dinners with other "church ladies." But baking was her forte. Baking bread, rolls, cookies, and pies was second nature to her. But the hallmark of her life was gratitude: gratitude for what she was able to do for family and friends, grateful for the life given her and especially grateful for her faith and life in Christ Jesus. "God has been so good. I am so lucky." Family and friends will be received on Friday, January 23, 2026, from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Gibbons Funeral Home, 1688 Liberty St., Ashville, Pa. 16613. A funeral Mass will be held Saturday, January 24, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at St. Augustine Catholic Church, 803 St. Augustine Road, Dysart, Pa. 16636. Committal will be held at St. Augustine Cemetery. Arrangements are under the care of Gibbons Funeral Home, Ashville. Condolences can be made at www.gibbonsfhashvillecoalport.com.
