Obituary for Andrew Hamilton Britt
ELLSWORTH— Andrew Hamilton Britt., passed away unexpectedly at his Branch Pond home, January 16, 2024. Andy was born December 22, 1947, in Tonawanda, NY to Richard Warren Britt and Crystal Cornell Britt.
Andy grew up in Tonawanda, NY and graduated from Tonawanda High School. After graduating from the University of Maine at Orono with a degree in civil engineering, he embarked on his lengthy career with H.E. Sargent. He shared his expertise in road construction with his neighborhood, expertly maintaining the road to their home and becoming the president of the Phillips Way Road Association for 20 years. Lake life was important to Andy as he enjoyed his days on the water, boating and fishing. But more than anything, he loved his family and his Golden Retrievers.
He was also passionate about the University of Maine hockey teams. A season ticket holder since 1983, Andy and his family followed the team religiously attending all home games and traveled with them to Ireland, Alaska, all frozen fours and most away games.
He is survived by his wife, Anne Dubraska Britt of Branch Pond; daughter, Mary Elizabeth Britt of Rockland; and sister Tracy Ann Britt of Lisbon Falls. He will be fondly remembered by Tony Libertore and his wife Joanna, and their children Alexa, Alanna, and AJ. Tony was like a second son to Andy and his kids were treated like his grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents and his son, Richard Andrew Britt.
A Celebration of Life will be held from 11am-2pm, June 30th, 2024 at the Lucerne Inn, Overlook room, 2517 Main Rd., Dedham, 04429.
In lieu of flowers, Andy and his family would appreciate your support of the University of Maine Men’s Ice Hockey Program. It was Andy’s wish to have the new Equipment Room named in honor of their son, Richard Andrew Britt, who was the equipment manager of the 1999 Championship team when he passed away.
