Elizabeth Ann Shaffer

Elizabeth Ann "Betty" Shaffer, 83, of Oakland, passed away on May 19, 2026, at J.W. Ruby WVU Hospital. Born on January 4, 1943, in Crellin, Maryland, she was the daughter of the late Hank and Pauline (Calhoun) Henline.

For many years, Betty worked as an inspector for Bausch & Lomb and later as a pharmacy technician until retirement. She was a faithful member of the Oak Park Church of the Brethren, where she and her husband enjoyed the church fellowship. She was always ready to serve where needed, as a deacon, board member, or a participant on various committees. She enjoyed showing her love for her family by preparing meals and baking delicious cookies. After retirement, she traveled with her husband all over the United States and had many stories to share about their fun-filled adventures. Her hobbies included bird watching, caring for her flowers, doing puzzles, and watching game shows. Betty's family was the center of her world. Making sure everyone was taken care of was her life's priority. She was the backbone of her family, and will be deeply missed by them all. Her strong faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ gives the family comfort and peace knowing that she is resting eternally with Him.
