Elizabeth ”Bj” Youmans,  (Morgan), 56, passed away after a long, courageous battle against cancer.  A lifelong resident of Ridgewood, NJ, her home was always open to everyone.     No one embraced life the way Bj did.  Whether it was coaching a team, watching her kids play sports, lounging in her pool, boating on the lake or putting her toes in the Wildwood sand, Bj lived every moment to the fullest.
Bj leaves behind her beloved husband Thomas of 29 years; and her children, Crystal, Kim and Tom.  She was one of eight siblings and leaves behind countless aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends.   Bj was meant to be a mother.  It was truly her calling in life. She loved her children with every breath of her body and then had enough love left for countless others.  She was known as Momma Bej. 
Family will be receiving visitors on Thursday, May 18th from 4pm – 9pm and the service Friday, May 19th at 10am.  Both the viewing and the service will be at Powerhouse Church 500 W Main Street, Wyckoff.  
She was an advocate for NJ Special Olympics and specifically the Bergen County Wildcats.  Because of this, the family asks that in lieu of flowers; please consider a donation to the Bergen County Wildcats by visiting their website www.bcwildcats.org or via mail to Bergen County Wildcats Program, P.O. Box 363, Montvale, NJ 07645. Funeral arrangements were made through Feeney Funeral Home, Ridgewood. FeeneyFuneralHome.com
