Elizabeth Ann “B” Geller
October 23, 1956 - January 1, 2026
Elizabeth Ann “B” Geller, age 69, of New Castle, DE, passed away peacefully on Thursday, January 1, 2026, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Throughout her journey, Elizabeth demonstrated remarkable strength, grace, and an unwavering love for her family and all those around her.
Born in New York, NY on October 23, 1956, she was a daughter of the late Edward and Ethel Machurek. Elizabeth had a deep love for arts and crafts, and family and friends fondly remember the handmade cards she lovingly created for birthdays and holidays – each one a reflection of her thoughtfulness and creativity. Nothing brought her greater joy than helping others and spending time with her family. Elizabeth’s kindness, generosity, and nurturing spirit touched countless lives.
In addition to her parents, Elizabeth was preceded in death by her brothers, Edward Machurek and Edwin Machurek; sister, Rosemary Williams; sister-in-law, Linda Machurek; and brother-in-law, Charles Williams. She is survived by her loving and devoted husband of 40 years, Edward Geller; cherished grandchildren, Eddie, Scarlet, AJ, Xander, and Andrew, who were truly the light of her life; dear friend, Lisa, with whom she shared a friendship of over 40 years; sister, Dawn Stewart (Don); as well as a host of nieces and nephews who will forever hold her memory close to their hearts.
Elizabeth will be deeply missed, but her legacy of love, compassion, and selflessness will live on through all who were blessed to know her.
A visitation for family and friends will be held from 11:30 am until 12:30 pm on Thursday, January 8, 2026, at Spicer-Mullikin Funeral Home, 1000 North DuPont Parkway, New Castle, DE. A Mass of Christian Burial will be offered at 1 pm at Our Lady of Fatima Roman Catholic Church, 801 North DuPont Parkway, New Castle, DE.

I will never be able to say thank you for being there for me. Loving and supporting me. Being like a grandmother for Malachi and always encouraging him. Being a second mom to me. I loved you and everything about you. I’m just really going to miss you and everything about you. I loved that we are a lot alike and enjoyed the same things. I’m so glad the struggle and pain is over but im greedy and wish we had more time. Say hi to my mom and dad. And you can tell your big brother you took care of us all. Love ya.

My heart is broken. You were so much more than a godmother to me — you were a second mother, a guide, and a constant source of love and strength. Your kindness, generosity, and unwavering care for family and others will never be forgotten. I am so grateful for every moment, every lesson, and every memory we shared. You will forever live on in my heart, watching over me as one of my angels. Rest peacefully, until we meet again.

Mr. Geller my deepest condolences for the lost of your loving wife aka(the general). I know how much you love her and how worried you were about her. I am just glad to had a chance met and help Mrs. Geller. She truly was a devoted wife, mom and grandmother. I joked with her about being called the general and we laughed about it. May your soul rest in Peace Mrs. Geller. I will try my best to look out for your grandkids and Mr. Geller here at the credit union.

Dear Mr. Ed,
I was deeply saddened by the news of the passing away of Miss B. I am so very sorry. This must be a very difficult time for you. Please remember that you are in my thoughts and my prayers.
Miss B was such a kind soul who will be greatly missed by all who knew her. I will miss her helpful advice. I remember the time when I had the birdfeather by your fence, and she said to move it because Taxedo was after the birds. She sure saved a lot of birds from getting hurt. I’m sure you remember that, and I’ll never forget that time. Every time I look at the bird feather, I will think of Miss B. Now I think about how much I will miss her.
I know how much you will miss Miss B, but you can take comfort and strength from the wonderful family you and she had together. I know their love will get you through this difficult time. I’d like to offer my help as well. I can come over any time to chat and help you with the yard work or anything if you would like.
May God bless you and your family during this time and always,
Zaib & Joann

Dear Ed, Eddie and Scarlett. It was such a pleasure to meet Beth. She always made me smile and I looked forward to seeing her pick up Scarlett at school. I have missed seeing her this last year and regret that I won’t see her again. You all will be in my prayers asking God to heal the pain and fill your hearts with wonderful memories and smiles. I loved all her crafty gifts and will cherish them forever.
