Mary Ann Huff Casson
AUBURN – Mary Ann Huff Casson passed away peacefully in her sleep Nov. 8, 2021 at the age of 99. The daughter of Antonette and Arthur Huff, she was born March 19, 1922 in Lewiston.
She attended schools in Lewiston and went on to work at various jobs until she married Edgar C. Casson June 29, 1946. Together they raised three daughters, Laurie, Linda and Pat. When all of her daughters were in school, she went on to work at the Bates Mill until she retired at the age of 62. Mary was a wonderful mother and wife. She always put her family’s needs above her own. There was no question that her family knew how much she loved them and the feeling was mutual. They could always count on a hot meal and of course a homemade dessert.
After she retired she became an avid walker and would venture out in all kinds of weather and made friends along the way. Mary would knit slippers for an area preschool, friends and family. She was an avid watcher of game shows and loved all her granddogs.
Mary leaves behind the three daughters, Laurie Dexter of Colorado, Linda Deeble and husband Arthur of Pennsylvania and Patricia Casson of Lewiston; three grandchildren Aaron Dexter, Shanon Jones and Eric Deeble; along with five great-grandchildren, Kolton, Logan, Jacob, Marissa and Landon. She is also survived by one sister Lillian Picard of New Gloucester. She was predeceased by her beloved husband of 60 years, Edgar and her three sisters, Christine, Dorothy and Arline.
The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at the Odd Fellows and Rebekah’s Home for their exceptional care.
