“Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged, but has crossed over from death to life.” John 5:24
On Friday, March 27 at 8:45 a.m. in Arab, Alabama, Elizabeth Chase Buccellato (Beth), born July 15, 1961 in San Diego, CA, passed on to a bright, beautiful, and unencumbered heavenly life and into the arms of her eternally beloved parents, Jimmy and Betty Chase. Beth lived a life surrounded by loved ones who treasured her laughter, her creativity, her eye for design, her All American (Marcia Brady) beauty, and her many good years of love.
Predeceased by her parents Jimmy and Betty Chase of Cleveland, TN, Beth leaves behind to mourn her tragic loss her loyal and kind husband and caregiver Joseph Buccellato in Arab, AL; her daughter Sarah Beth Clayton, in Cartersville, GA (her husband Kyle, 4-year-old son Wyatt and 1-year-old daughter Hayes); her son Chase W. Ramsey in Nashville, TN (his wife, Andrea, and 9-month-old son Owen); stepson Joel Buccellato in Burlington, NC; sister Lili Houchens (with brother-in-law Steve and nieces Ruby, Ellie, and Camille) in Charlottesville, VA; brother Lans Chase (with sister-in-law Drea and nephew Landon) in Acworth, GA; Uncle Dean and Aunt June Chase (and Dean Chase cousins and grand cousins) in Cleveland, TN; Aunts Harrison Cotham and Sally Griggs of Nashville, TN; her Uncle, Dr. Mack Kerley in Atlanta, GA; Paul Ramsey; her sweet dog Theo and many friends in Tennessee and Alabama.
The beautiful memories flood the hearts of Beth’s loved ones… the years of caring and nurturing motherhood; thrift store shopping and cruising with Joe; laughter and cookouts by her parents’ pool; watching Beth’s much-loved favorite movie “You’ve Got Mail”; Joy Street antics with siblings, cousins, and friends; shopping at Beth’s unique and eclectic store Vintage Vogue; getting Beth’s interior design advice; sunny vacations to the beaches that Beth loved; and many more lovely memories that will surface in time.
Joe, Sarah Beth and Chase along with the entire Chase family look forward to celebrating Beth’s life with all her loved ones in Summer 2020 in Cleveland, TN. Beth’s ashes will be spread in all her favorite places and ultimately laid to rest at Fort Hill Cemetery in Cleveland, TN.
