Elisabeth A. Kelley, M.D – – known to everyone as “Lisa” passed away on September 30, 2023, at 12:41 pm. Lisa was at work at Children’s Healthcare diligently doing post-office-hour medical charts when she suffered a massive brain aneurysm. She was on life support and never regained consciousness before her heart stopped two days later.
Lisa was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and pediatrician who took care of numerous Batesville children over the last 30 years. She loved spending time with her children, and grandchildren, riding her Peloton, and refinishing Mid-Century Modern furniture.
She was an Angel on earth for 62 years and is now an Angel in heaven. She is also an organ donor and is helping others in death, just like she did in life.
Lisa is survived by her husband, B.J. Kelley, her children, Connor Kelley and Emily Kelley Bauer (spouses, Claire Heppner Kelley and Ryan Bauer) – – Lisa’s three grandchildren, Lena Kelley, Otto Kelley, and Wilder Bauer – – along with her siblings, Catherine May, Ted May, David May and her father William F. May. She was preceded in death by her mother Beverly (Wilson) May.
