Provider's Thoughts : |
Mom was the daughter of Joel Leeman and Angie (Reynolds) Grant. She
graduated from Columbia Falls High School Columbia Falls, Maine, Class
of 1940. She was president of the Union Church Society of Columbia,
Maine for many years. She worked for L.Ray Packing Co. of Milbridge,
Maine for a long time.. She is survived by her husband of 50 years,
Orrin Worcester of Columbia, Maine; four sons, Philip and wife Valerie
Worcester of Columbia Falls,Maine, Thomas and wife Cheryl Worcester of
Columbia, Maine, Bruce Worcester of Prospect, Maine and John and wife
Debra Worcester of Columbia, Maine; three daughters, Ronie and husband
Carroll Strout of Addison, Maine, Charlene and husband, Barry Ramsdell
of Columbia, Maine, Phyllis and husband, William Mewer of Eliot, Maine;
one brother Kenneth Grant of Columbia, Maine ; three sisters, Floris
Bagley of Addison, Maine, Olive Boyd of Milbridge, Maine, Gladys Wing of
New Sharon, Maine. 17 grandchildren, several nieces and nephews. She was
predeceased by one granddaughter.
Mom enjoyed making quilts with her friends for the Union Church Society
and for her children.
She was a hard working person, raising seven children, canning from the
big garden that Dad planted, and working as a sardine packer after her
youngest child started to school. She would make do with what ever she
had.
I can remember calling her collect from Portland, Maine and asking her
how to cook something. One time I called and told her that my custard
did not taste like her. She told me that she used lemon flavoring in
hers not vanilla. She would always seem to call me when I was out to the
clothsline hanging out clothes. I would run in only to miss her, and
call her back. I said if you let it ring longer than three times I could
get in to answer the phone. To this day when I am out hanging out
clothes I expect the phone to ring with her on the line asking me what I
was up to. I still miss her and love her.
