Lillian “Lily” (Michaud) Hanning

UNITY – It is with a heavy heart that my sister and I announce that our loving mother, Lily (Lillian Michaud) Hanning, was lifted by God to join her parents on May 18, 2021. She was born March 15, 1948 in Waterville to Gladys (Howard) and Roland Michaud.

Most of her working years were with the accounting department within different divisions of the State of Maine. She was an avid BINGO player and loved to explore, she could tell you how to get anywhere in Maine without ever getting on the interstate.

Mom is survived by her two daughters, Patty (Zinkovitch) LaChance (spouse Joe) and Sally (Zinkovitch) Shorey (partner Bob Huntington). Mom is also survived by her three brothers, Leo Michaud (spouse Pauline), Howard Michaud (special person Debbie) and Alfred Michaud. Mom will also be missed by her two grandsons, Jimmy-Lee Shorey and Richard Beaulieu; as well as her two step-granddaughters, Nikki (LaChance) Theobald and Katelyn LaChance; and nine great-grandchildren. Several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews will also miss her dearly. Mom was very fond of her two BINGO buddies, Gilmay Power and Aunt Carmen (Babe) Dennis.

A celebration of Mom’s life will be held on Saturday, June 19 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the VFW on Water Street in Waterville.

We want to thank the nurses and doctors that attended to Mom for 16 days while she was in the Augusta General Hospital critical care unit.

If you would like to honor the memory of our mother, please get vaccinated against COVID and/or donate to any charity in her name
