Whether it would be across the world, or across the country - She had an incredible zest for life and all it could offer her. She kept a journal of all of her traveling experiences. Wanda worked in the insurance industry for over 25 years & and had an incredible work ethic. Every co-worker she had, has nothing but beautiful words to say about her. She worked very hard to give the best life she could to her two daughters, Nicole and Melanie. Whether it was words of wisdom or a kick in the pants, she always put her family first. Wanda became a grandmother for the first time in 2003 to a beautiful girl, Abby and again in 2010, welcomed a grandson, Jaysen. Nana became her new name and she was over the moon in love with her grand babies. Wanda was pre deceased by her dear Sister, Carol and sister in law, Joanne.

| 847 | | William Beebe William Andrews Beebe passed away at home early in the morning on Oct. 2, 2016. Bill was born on May 11, 1935 in Worcester, Massachusetts, the son of Mae and Edwin Beebe. His formative years were spent in Vermont and Maine, where he graduated from Orono High school in 1953.

While at school he met Katharine Laura Fernald (Kay); they were engaged on graduation eve and married on March 8, 1958. After a honeymoon trip to Aspen for skiing, they continued on to Las Vegas, Nevada where Bill immediately began his Air Force tour of duty.
