Frances P. Perron

1934-2023

It is with great sadness the family of Frances P. Perron announces her passing; February 28th 2023 at D'Youville Pavilion, with her husband and children by her side. She was born in Malden Massachusetts, on April 3'', 1934 to Frank P. and Mary A.(Sheehan) Marino. Fran grew up in several towns surrounding the Boston area, and graduated in 1952 from Roslindale High School in Boston. She continued to live and work in the Boston area until she met and married Paul E. Perron, son of Pierre and Marie Perron, July 14th, 1957. They moved to Maine after their second child was born, settling in Paul's hometown of Lewiston, and had lived many happy years raising their 5 children there. Her last move was to Schooner Estates in Auburn in 2019.

Mom was a homemaker. She loved taking care of and doting on her children and house, being barefoot, watching TV and movies, and talking. When her sister Marion would visit, it was not unusual for those two to be the last up and they might still be up talking in the morning. She was particularly good with our country's history and knew a lot about politics. She will be remembered for her beautiful smile and the ability to find something positive in everyone, and she thought her grandchildren and great grandchildren were the best things in the world.

Frances is survived by her husband of 65 years, Paul, of Auburn, her five children and their spouses: Paul Jr. (& Tami) Perron of Poland, Gina (& Mark) Duchette of Turner, Dana (&Janet) Perron of Turner, Joseph (& KerriAnne) Perron of Lewiston, and Jerry (fiance Robin) Perron of Bowdoinham, thirteen grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren, her sister Marion Rose of Plymouth, Massachusetts, and many nieces and nephews. She was sadly predeceased by her and Paul's parents, a grandson, Matthew Perron, and a great grandchild, Leopold Duchette.
