Dorothy M. Feeney

Topsham - Dorothy “Dot” Mullen Feeney, 100 passed away January 11, 2026. Dot was born in South Portland on July 25,1925 to Michael T. and Glendon Kennedy Mullen. Dot graduated from South Portland High School in 1942 and Northeastern Business College in 1943.

Dot worked for Guardian Finance Company in Portland for 5 years then moved to Miami, Florida and married Charles “Frank” Feeney in 1949. She was employed in Miami with a local bank for 3 years until she and Frank moved back home to Portland. Eventually they settled in Falmouth where they raised their 5 children. Dot was always at her children’s sporting events and her grandchildren’s dance or piano recitals. She enjoyed baking desserts; often the neighborhood kids would sneak into the house to take them. Her grandchildren looked forward to Sunday dinners at her house, first running to check the cookie jar to see what surprise might be there.

Once the children were in high school, Dot worked in the back office of K-Mart part-time for 20 years. After retiring from K-Mart she enjoyed line dancing for many years until she was 88.

Dot moved to Florida in 2016 with her daughter and family. After 3 years they moved back to Maine. In Topsham, Dot enjoyed riding her scooter around the neighborhood visiting neighbors and enjoyed seeing the children playing.

Dot was predeceased by her parents, her two brothers Martin and Michael, her husband and her two youngest sons Stephen and Richard.

She is survived by her daughter Diane (Donald) McMaster whom she lived with in Topsham, her sons, Michael (Janice Gagnier) of Melbourne, FL and David of South Portland. She is also survived by 9 grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.

Per Dot’s request there will be no services, and burial will be in the spring.
