Elizabeth M.
Kane
May 1, 1943 — Jul 27, 2024
Elizabeth M. Kane was born May 1st, 1943. She passed away peacefully in her home in Hampton Bays, July 27th, 2024 at the age of 81 years.
Elizabeth lived in Queens, NY for ¾ of her life. She was married to Charles J. Kane on August 6th, 1977 and they adopted a baby girl from Seoul Korea in 1983. Elizabeth became a widow at the young age of 50, but she did her best to work a full time job at the United Nations and raise her daughter.
After she retired from the United Nations in 2005, Elizabeth and Beth moved from their home in Maspeth to Hampton Bays. Elizabeth was a devout Catholic, attending the church of St. Rosalie in Hampton Bays. She was a Eucharistic minister and volunteered for many of their events. Elizabeth worked part time at the Rogers Memorial Library in adult programming. In her spare time, she went to the Hampton Bays Senior Center, played cards (bridge and canasta), joined the Irish American Society and the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians. She enjoyed traveling into the city for Broadway shows, spending time with her friends and family, and eating ice cream from Friendly's and McDonalds.
Elizabeth leaves behind her daughter Beth and a plethora of family and friends whom she enjoyed spending her time with.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to either the Alzheimer's Association or the American Cancer Society in her name.
