Elaine Lennon Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 30, 2019.

Elaine F. Lennon died peacefully at home surrounded by her loving family on Monday, July 29, 2019 following a brief illness at the age of 91.


Elaine was the beloved wife of the late John B. Lennon and was also preceded in death by her parents and three brothers (Thomas, John and Richard). She is survived by her eight loving children, Jeanine Saegert (Stephen); Joanne Kelly (John); John T. Lennon; James Lennon (Mary Kate); Jacqueline Bottcher (Peter); Jayne Guindon (David); Jeffrey Lennon (Maureen); and Joan Lennon Liptrot; her 12 grandchildren and her 5 great-grandchildren. She will also be greatly missed by her sister, Shirley Silcox, and her many nieces and nephews and their families.


Elaine and her husband were original homeowners in Levittown PA, where she raised her family while working as a full-time bookkeeper for more than 35 years and she was a founding member of Resurrection Lutheran Church. For the past 19 years, Elaine resided at Gloria Dei Plaza in Newtown, where she made numerous friends, was a volunteer and a regular participant in various activities. She maintained an active participation in the political process throughout her entire life and she was an Election Day Constable at a Newtown polling place for many years. Elaine loved to bake for her family and friends, spend time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren, and watch her beloved Philadelphia Phillies for more than 65 years.


Elaine's family would like to thank Dr. Anne Whalen, the staff at Whalen & McElmoyle Family Medicine, St Mary's Medical Center and Chandler Hall Hospice for their kind and compassionate care of Elaine.


Family and friends are invited to a memorial visitation to celebrate Elaine's life from 9 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. on Monday, September 9, 2019 at Emmaus Road Church, 2185 Bristol Oxford Valley Rd., Levittown, PA where her memorial service will be held at 10:30 a.m. Interment to follow at Resurrection Cemetery, Bensalem, PA.

Elaine made a difference in so many lives, including my own and my children. She was a neighbor and I never worried when I had to work because she was like a second mother to Mark and Melissa. I am truly thankful to have known this amazing woman. My deepest sympathy goes out to her family.
