Sheila M. Lemieux
VASSALBORO – Sheila M. Lemieux, 69, passed away unexpectedly at home on April 18, 2023.
Born in Waterville on May 1, 1953. She was the daughter of Cornelius and Fern (Leathers) Lemieux. She attended local schools and graduated from Winslow High School, class of 1971. After graduation she was employed by Deschaine’s Market and Colby College.
She enjoyed visiting and helping neighbors around town. When at home, she was often crafting, writing letters and quilting, which she learned from her mother and grandmother. She shared these talents while spending time with her Ladies group, Pins and Needles, at the Methodist Church.
Tigger, her cat, was her cherished companion. She often shared his antics with everyone. They enjoyed feeding and watching wildlife together. Sheila loved seeing sunrises and would look forward to getting pictures of them from all over the state when her nephew, Ben, was travelling.
Sheila was predeceased by her parents; brother, Wayne; her niece, Sarah; and two great-nieces.
She is survived by her brothers, Bernard and his wife, Pam, of Vassalboro, Keith and his wife, Karen, of Winslow and sister-in-law, Ruth, of Benton; as well as several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends that she considered family.
A celebration of life will be held at The Mill, 934 Main St., Vassalboro on Saturday June 17 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
