I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother.  I enjoyed knowing here at the Betsy Ross House.  She was a wonderful and active person.  I also enjoyed my trip with her Down East a year ago and meeting many of you.




"So sorry for the loss of your Mom, Mary. From reading her obituary, I realize she was a n active and kind lady, who was dedicated to helping and serving others.  Obviously she was a good mentor for you and left you with some great memories.
                                                                 
With love from Helene Hammond

I graduated with Louise from UMM and shared many classes with her. I always enjoyed her company and found her to be upbeat and friendly. Today I guess they would call her an alternative student. I wish I had known her better








I graduated with Louise from UMM. We had many classes together and she was a wonderful role model for us youngsters. I have a smile on my face as I remember her. Prayers to all the Downings .

Laurie, So very sorry for your loss.  I'm sure she treasured all of the time you spent together.  Jane & Phil Kane

So sorry for your loss.  I did my practice teaching with your mom.  I am so glad she was able to continue to give that gift to others in her retirement.

So very sorry to read of your Mom's passing.  I remember your family well from Machiasport. My Mom enjoyed you in school. Frances would pass on updates of your family on my summer visits.
My sympathy to you all.
