March 18, 1949 — March 9, 2019

Elizabeth Jane Rife, 70, of Williamsport, went to her heavenly home Saturday, March 9, 2019 at her home.

Born March 18, 1949 in Muncy, she was a daughter of the late George A. and Harriet A. (Miller) Rife.

She was a member of St. John’s United Methodist Church, Dewart.

Jane enjoyed traveling, especially to Hawaii, California, Florida and to see shows in Branson and Myrtle Beach. She was all about having fun and loved having dinner and movies with family and friends. Jane was fond of her cats and often stuffed animals relaxed on her car ledge. Jane enjoyed sending special greeting cards with kittens and puppies on them. She kept up with movie magazines, stars and everything TV. Before arthritis made it difficult to get around, Jane was quite the movie buff.

Surviving are two sisters and a brother-in-law, Lona Sholly, of Dewart and Connie and Larry Sholly, of Allenwood; two nephews and their wives, Larry Jr. and Crystal Sholly, of Watsontown and Lon and Brenda Sholly, of Limestonville; and two great nieces, Ashley Sholly and her fiancé, Evan Meyer, of Turbotville and Megan Sholly, of Limestonville.
