He graduated from Farmington High School in 1950, where he developed a talent for music, excelling in piano and voice.  He was selected for the Maine All-State and the All Eastern-States Choruses.

Ed attended Farmington State Teacher’s College and graduated in 1954 with a BS in education.  While in college, he played in the school’s dance band, where he met Barbara D’Eon – they were married shortly after his graduation.

After college, he served as a specialist in the Army Combat Engineers from 1954-1957.  Upon completing his military service, he taught 5^th grade in Auburn.  In 1962, he earned his Masters of Education at the University of Maine, Orono, and was principal of Marion T. Morse Elementary school in Lisbon Falls from 1961 to his retirement in 1984.

He was very involved in the early days of the Head Start program in 1965, speaking to educators and community leaders, promoting the program throughout Androscoggin County.

Ed always had a keen interest in minerals and geology, and with Barbara, started H&H Jewelers in 1977.  This became a full-time business when he retired from education.  He was a master gold and silversmith and displayed his work in local stores and craft shows throughout New England.  During his years as a jeweler, he was a member of the Society of Southern Maine Craftsmen, Central Maine Craftsmen, and the United Maine Craftsmen, where he served on the board of directors.

Bath-Stephen Packard Wilson died Friday, October 16, 2020 at the Community Living Center, Togus after living over a decade with Alzheimer’s Disease. He was born November 24, 1940, in Bath, to Donald B. Wilson and Dorris (Campbell) Wilson. During his youth he spent many a day from dawn to dusk exploring the woods and waters of his Winnegance neighborhood. He graduated from Morse High School in 1959 and from the University of Maine, Orono with a B.S. degree in Forestry in 1964 where he was a member of Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity, an ROTC Distinguished Military Graduate and a member of The National Society of Scabbard and Blade. On December 11, 1965, he married Joyce (Ring) Wilson in Karlsruhe, Germany, where he was stationed with the 555 Engineer Group, U.S. Army. He served as a company commander, 617th Engineer Company, 46th Engineer Battalion in Vietnam, including during the Tet Offensive of 1968, earning a Bronze Star for “meritorious achievement in ground operations against hostile forces”. Recently he was presented with a Quilt of Valor. Capt. Wilson returned home to Bath, where he entered the employ of Bath Iron Works as a 3rd class estimator and retired in 1995 after being honored to serve in positions such as Director of Labor Relations and Vice President of Human Resources.    

Steve served his hometown volunteering for several years as a trustee of the Bath Water District, the Winnegance Alewife Commission, and the Morse High School Scholarship Fund. He was an energetic leader of the Coastal Conservation Association, a member of the Bath Lodge of Elks and a covenant member of the Phippsburg Congregational Church, United Church of Christ.  

Steve gave generously of his time and spirit. He was always one to gather people. He is remembered for organizing annual ice fishing tournaments on Winnegance Lake and men’s tennis leagues. Coaching 5th-6th grade and Special Olympics basketball teams was a winter season opportunity to which he gave his all. Dad was all-time quarterback and pitcher for the neighborhood kids two hand touch football and wiffle ball games on Snow Park. He was known to stay up into the middle of the night playing pool and other games with family and friends. Pa/Grampy was a proud grandfather; he would follow his grandchildren anywhere - concerts and award nights to athletic events.  He made sure they all knew how to cast a line and started many traditions that continue today. Steve had a hidden artistic talent; pen and ink was his medium; black ducks, geese, mallards and eider ducks his models adorning annual Christmas cards. He loved music and in the later stages of Alzheimer’s music was a way for his loved ones to happily connect with him.  

Above all Keepah was a fisherman and a hunter who relished the challenge of the hunt whether it be the search for the best fishing hole on the Kennebec or flushing a covey of black ducks from the back river. If he had his way, opening day of the freshwater fishing season would be declared a national holiday! An advocate for catch and release, he could land 20 striped bass one day, take someone else out the next day, catch the same 20 stripers, and be over the moon. He relished the camaraderie with friends as they fished the waters from the Kennebec to the Mirimichi, from Sebago to East Grand Lake. In regard to duck hunting, Steve was a magnificent shot and amazed his family with his uncanny ability to identify different species of duck at long range. He wrote a monthly column for “The Maine Sportsman'' during the 1980’s.       

He is survived by his wife of 55 years, Joyce; a son, Mark, and his children:  Kiera and her partner Thomas Varley, Pearl and her fiancé Meg Bateman, Sophie, and their mother, Erin; a daughter, Leslie (Wilson) Gallant, her husband Matt, and their son Oscar; and a son Benjamin, his wife Melissa, and their children Clara and Luke.  Cousins David Wilson of Sidney, Maine and Peter and Frederick Hutchinson of Maryland also share our loss. 

His family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the staff of Patriot Place and Togus Springs at the VA Healthcare System, Togus for the unparalleled level of care Steve received for the four and one half years he resided there. 

A graveside service will be held for immediate family. If you are so moved, memorial contributions would be appreciated by future MHS graduates and may be addressed to the Morse High School Scholarship Fund, Box 1030, Bath, ME 04530, or, being aware of Steve’s devotion to the care of our natural resources, donations may be made to the Bath Forestry Committee Tree Nursery Program, drop off or mail to the Cemetery Office at 1 Oak Grove Avenue, Bath, ME 04530.

Ronald G McCarthy

1943 - 2020

Bowdoinham-Our dear Ron left this world at 77 years of age on July 21, 2020. Cancer may have ravished his body, but his spirit remained strong.

Ron enjoyed working with wood and took up carving as a hobby. Ron had some talent in this area and when asked what he had carved his modest, standard reply was, “woodchips”.  Late in life Ron decided that he wanted to learn to play the guitar. Ron sought the help of his younger cousin Terry whose talent is legendary. Ron considered Terry a younger brother, who shared a love of the instrument and also diagnosis. They made a promise that the first to leave the confines of this world would save a seat for the other. We know they’re now together and the lessons continue.

You might have known Ron and more importantly the person he was if:

• You were in the County or Bangor in the early to mid-40s.
• You lived in the St. Pat’s neighborhood of Lewiston, attended the Parish Grammar school, or swam at the city pool.
• You worked the 3^rd shift at the Bates Mill in the early 60’s where Ron also worked to support his single mother and grandmother.
• You attended Lewiston High School and graduated in 1962.
• You were a member of the 82^nd Airborne Division of the U.S. Army and stationed at Ft. Bragg from the early to middle 60’s.
• You lived on the Eastern Shore of Maryland where Ron lived after his military service.
• You worked at Bath Iron Works from 1982 to 2010 and were in Dept. 19 or in the Engineering Dept. –QC.

Ron is sadly missed by his wife Grace of 46 years; sons Ron II and his wife Missi of Henderson, NV, Sean and his wife Ayla of Richmond, ME and Justin and his wife Teresa of East Freetown, MA; grandsons Ron III, Cameron, Gray, Aiden and Corbin; granddaughters Adeline and Sophia, brothers and sisters by marriage, cousins, nephews and nieces, and recliner buddy Turbo.

Ron is joined in passing by his mom Ethel; brothers Joseph and Robert, brothers and sisters by marriage, uncles, aunts, cousins, nephews and, nieces.

Our family thanks the many medical personnel at several facilities who took loving care of our Ron.  We also sincerely appreciate the CHANS hospice team of Pam, Susan, Beth, Cindy, Kim and Karen who made the rough road of this journey so much less rocky.

It is Ron’s wish that a private Mass be offered and that close friends and family members celebrate his life.

He was born Oct. 21, 1932 on the family farm in Farmingdale, ME to William J. and Elsie J. Daigle. A “Gardiner boy” nearly all of his life, Norman was quite the Gardiner historian. He enjoyed sharing stories and facts of its vibrant commerce in his youth, and showed immense appreciation for the revitalization of the waterfront and downtown.

Married to Dorothy M. Plourde Sept.21, 1952 in Gardiner, their love story extended 46 years until her passing in Dec. 1998 shortly after an anniversary road trip to Niagara Falls, Mt. Rushmore, and the Grand Ole Opry. Their quote between them was “On the Road Again!” from favorite singer Willie Nelson.

Norman worked in the construction industry for over 40 years, including the building of Gardiner High School in the mid 1960’s. He retired after 25 years of service with Maine D.O.T., finishing as the foreman in Belgrade. 

Norman and Dorothy lived at the family farm, and later built their retirement lake home on Pleasant Pond to enjoy many years of boating and water sports with his family. He had such pride in his landscape design and gardening. His great love of the outdoors was evident in his passion for deer hunting, including his last tag in fall of 2019, and later turkey hunting as well. Other accomplishments and interests included being a hunting safety instructor for several years, serving on a committee for disabled hunter applicants with the Dept. of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife, and being recognized for distinctive service for his hospice volunteering with Kennebec Valley at the Blaine House by Karen Baldacci.

At the age of 75, he fulfilled a life-long dream of flying in a bi-plane. Adventure stunts that followed were a hot air balloon ride, a glider, and a tandem sky-dive jump to celebrate his 83^rd birthday! His love and devotion to his family were immeasurable, always showing great compassion to others in his life with a kind word, a laugh, and encouragement. Feeling grateful for his own good fortunes, his most famous quote was “Count your blessin’s.” 

He was predeceased by wife Dorothy, grandsons Adam and Nathan Horning, and all six siblings: Reta, Mary, Bertha, John, Lorraine, and Nancie. He is survived by daughters Norma Horning, Roxanne Cyr & husband Peter, grandsons Clinton Cyr & fiancée Rachel, Perry Cyr & his wife Megan, also many nieces and nephews.

Merry Hermans died June 22, 2020, ten days after her 92nd birthday.

In November, 1927, as the Winooski River in Waterbury, Vermont rose 20 feet over its banks, Dascomb Rowe carried to safety through the rushing and turbulent waters and up three flights of stairs his pregnant wife Ruth and their two young children, Ernestine and Alan.  Two months later, on a brutally cold winter’s day, Ruth was thrown from a runaway horse drawn sleigh.  Miraculously, she gave birth on June 12, 1928 to Mary Ellen Rowe, who soon realized that her essential soul -joy, grace, sunshine, optimism-was better reflected  as Merry.  

And at age 13, so she became.  

Merry, Ernie, Alan and their younger brother Steve were raised in a tradition that highly valued education. Her father, Dascomb Rowe, was principal of Waterbury High School. Her mother, Ruth McLachlin Rowe, was a professor of English at Vermont Junior College. Of course, it was not always so easy being the principal’s daughter and she would recall  jitterbugging down the school hallway  only to see the commanding presence of her father: “You all go to class. Miss Rowe, you go to my office.”   Merry graduated as Valedictorian and noted in her yearbook a favorite quote: “Knowledge is Power”.   Love of sport was also a foundational belief.  “Stretch”, as Merry was known, played varsity basketball for 4 years, winning the gold ball during her state championship season her junior year.  Love of music, as well, was a driving force, and she sang throughout the town as a young woman with her trio: The Sunshine Lassies, and wondered aloud about a possible future as a nightclub singer.

Beverly Jeane Lane Halsey, 82, of Bowdoinham passed on June 19, 2020 at her home with her family in Bowdoinham after a two-year battle with cancer.  Beverly was the daughter of Loren Edger Lane and Ruth Lane of Kansas.

Beverly was active in her childhood in local 4-H clubs and Girl Scouts of America.  As she grew, Beverly became adept at horseback riding, skiing, and camping.  Many of her fondest memories involved working with her father throughout the Rocky Mountains and at the many ranger stations n Estes Park.  Beverly is a Veteran of the US Navy, was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and a past president of the Eagles Club.  Beverly enjoyed learning about Native American heritage, collecting Native American memorabilia, especially pieces centered around wolves.  Beverly especially looked forward to native American Pow Wow’s that where she could sit and enjoy the music and the dancing.  Beverly was always compassionate, empathetic, and looking to care for others.  This carried through in her professional career where she worked for years in nursing and as a mental health care provider.  Beverly was always the first to do for others, and this loving trait guided her principles throughout her career.

Beverly leaves behind her husband of 62 years Sterling, four of her five children; Roburta, Raymond, Mary, George, and Sean, along with 16 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren.  Beverly also leaves behind her niece Leigh Terrell and nephew Lane Terrell.  Beverly is predeceased by her parents, Loren and Ruth Lane, her fourth child Paul Anthony, a cousin Carolyn Lane, her sister-in-law Roberta Ruth Halsey, and her sister Sydney Anne Terrell.

Services will be held at Kincer Funeral Home on Monday, June 29^th; The visitation will start at 2pm followed by a service at 3pm.  A Celebration of Beverly’s life will continue at her home in Bowdoinham following the services.

Please, in lieu of flowers, make a donation to Coastal Humane Society in Brunswick in Beverly’s memory.

Richmond-Teresa “Terry” Ann Gray, 68, passed peacefully at her home on June 4, 2020.

She was born January 16, 1952, to Kenneth and Barbara Gray. She grew up at first in Bar Harbor and then moved to Stonington, Maine when her father became the superintendent of schools there. She graduated from Deer Isle / Stonington High School in 1970 where she was (though mischievous) a solid student and athlete.

After high school, she soon married and became a mother (to her first son, Brent) and lived in Deer Isle for the next several years. During that time, she gave birth to a second son (Brian). She and her sons moved to Prospect Harbor, where she eventually remarried and started a successful career as an insurance / real estate agent.

In her early 40’s she decided to change career paths and pursue a Nursing degree from the University of Maine. She “toughed it out” and as a result of her hard work, she was quite successful, earning her way to the Dean’s List despite the challenges of being a non-traditional student, mother, and maintaining a full-time job.

She later moved to Richmond and married her husband of 25 years, Rusty. She took a position as an R.N. in a nursing home and later worked her way up to be the Director of Nursing, as her mother did many years before. She had a passion for taking care of her patients and expected the same of her staff. She was tough and had high standards, but her sole motivation was the welfare and dignity of those she cared for.

After her tenure as a D.O.N., she opted to retire. This gave her the time to focus on her many interests, which included:

• • Gardening. She was happiest with her hands in the dirt, and her yard is proof of her passion. At its peak, her yard was a “hidden sanctuary” right in the middle of Richmond, known to only a few.
• • Arts and Crafts. Her free spirit, “funky” style, talent, and creativity were evident in everything she did (e.g.: needle felting, painting, knitting, sewing).
• • Environment / nature. Protecting the environment and helping living things were very important to her.
• • Scrabble and crosswords. Only Terry would know that “za” is a real word and could use it to beat you…
• • Facebook. Though she initially scorned FB, it became a means by which she connected and communicated with friends (new and old) and shared her interests and opinions.
• • The Beatles. An avid fan, she always had The Beatles station on XM radio throughout the day. The memorabilia in her home were constant reminders of the love she had for this band. She was fortunate to cross off a bucket list item when she attended a Paul McCartney concert in New York with her son, Brian.

Terry was predeceased by her father, Ken, her brother, David, and her mother, Barbara. She is survived by her husband, Cyrus “Rusty” Kendrick, as well as her sons, Brent Snowden (wife Michelle and grandchildren, Emily and Josh) and Brian Snowden (wife Jessy and granddaughter Kali). Additionally, siblings Gary Gray(wife Sandy and nephews / nieces Josh,

Logan, Noah, Brodie, Samantha, and Chelsea), Lori Boyce (partner Stuart Varisco, nephew Justin and niece Kyla), Shari Johnson (husband Tom), and Suzi Lancaster (husband Hugh, nephew Kyle and niece Ciarra), Additionally, many aunts, uncles, cousins, in-laws, friends, Jabba(her bird), animals, and plants.

Per Terry’s request, the family will not hold a formal ceremony or service. Please remember her as the free-spirited, funky, gypsy soul that she was.

While his future wife, Michelle was studying Art History and Architecture in Boston, her friend Joni came to stay with her for the weekend. She asked Michelle if she would be willing to go on a "blind date" with a guy named Charlie from Brunswick. They would be double dating with Joni and her boyfriend at the time. The fact that Charlie was 5 ½ years older than Michelle intrigued her and she agreed.

Michelle still remembers the first time she saw Charlie. He was tan from working outdoors, he wore jeans, a button-down collar shirt, a navy-blue sport jacket with gold buttons, loafers worn without socks and Ray Ban Sunglasses. She also noticed he had dimples. They went out that evening and also the next day. After that first date Charlie would often call Michelle and when he would be done with work, he would drive to Boston 2-3 times a week if just to spend one or two hours with her and then drive back to Maine that same evening. The two of them soon became inseparable and eventually married and settled in Brunswick where they raised their 3 children.

Growing up Charlie learned to love and respect nature and the outdoors from his father, Roy. They were very close and often went fishing, bird hunting, hiking, duck hunting, boating, skiing and snowshoeing together. His father was a wonderful role model for Charlie.
