Elizabeth (Betty) M. Hussey, 94, of Whiting, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, June 25, 2025. Born on May 8, 1931, to Leon and Ethel Stout in Trenton, New Jersey, Betty spent her early years in Lawrenceville and graduated from Princeton High School. She furthered her education at college in Trenton before dedicating over two decades of service to the Borough of Princeton, working in the tax office for 22 years.
Betty’s professional journey continued as an administrative assistant at Princeton Nursing Home for 19 years, followed by 8 years with the Princeton Medical Association. Her compassion and commitment touched the lives of countless colleagues and community members.
After moving to St. Augustine, Florida for 10 years, Betty returned to New Jersey. She was an active member of Princeton Methodist Church and Eastern Star, and generously volunteered her time at the Crestwood Village 7 Library.
Betty was predeceased by her beloved husband, William, in 1990. Betty is survived by several cousins and extended family and friends. Interment will take place privately at Princeton Methodist Church Cemetery.
My Grandmom Betty was a wonderful lady. I spent every summer in Princeton with her and my Grandpop when I was young. We would go to Manasquan Beach and Washington’s Crossing every year. She was so full of love. I’ll always have wonderful memories of her.
So sorry for your loss. I hadn’t heard from her this past year after reaching out several times. Decided to look here. Her Father, Leon second marriage was to my Grandmother Jessie Pointsett Stout. Leon was the only Grandfather I knew growing as they were married before I was born in 1954. My mother who passed away and Aunt Betty were stepsisters. Aunt Betty was wonderful classy woman and I’m sure will be sadly missed. My youngest daughter middle name is Elizabeth for your Grandmother.
Sincere condolences to you and your family.

I Hadn’t spoken with my mother Betty in awhile. she gave me up for adoption when I was a baby. Thankfully I was able to find her through ancestry.com a few years ago and had a few wonderful conversations with her. I will miss my mother even though I never had the opportunity to meet her. Rest in peace, I love you.
