WATERVILLE – Thamera V. Federico, 83, of Waterville, passed away peacefully on Feb. 12, 2026, joining her beloved husband Roy Federico and leaving behind a legacy of love and laughter.

She enjoyed spending time with her family and cherished lunches on the coast with her sister, Cindy. She also enjoyed her life and ventures in Florida with her husband Roy, sister Deborah and brother-in-law Chester. She had a strong gift for connecting with others, striking up conversations wherever she went and turning strangers into friends with her warmth and genuine interest.

She will be remembered for her loving heart and her lively spirit. Her memory will live on in the stories shared, the laughter remembered, and the love she gave so freely.

She was predeceased by her parents, Violet and Kenneth Drown; her daughters, Debbie Pelletier, Tammy Oatley, and Kathy Scott; and her sister, Cynthia Elias.

She is survived by her loving sister and brother-in-law, Deborah and Chester Ingalls; her brother, Joe Drown; her daughter and son-in-law, Sherry and Larry Burgess; her cherished grandchildren, Liza Hamilton, Sara Burgess, Kevin and Kyle Scott, Morgan and Cole Rogers, and Anthony Oatley; and six great-grandchildren.

A graveside service will be held at a later date at Pine Grove Cemetery in Waterville, as well as a Celebration of Life.
