Esther E. Rodick, 77, wife of Clarence L. Rodick, Jr, died peacefully January 9, 2014 at her home in Bangor. She was born in Bar Harbor, July 2, 1936, daughter of Norma (Andrews) and C. Leslie Rinaldo.
As a child, she lived in Trenton on the Sunny Hollow Poultry Farm. She graduated from Bar Harbor High School in 1953. While working at Sherman’s Hardware store, she met her husband of 59 years; they were married on September 8, 1954. They lived in Kodiak, Alaska and Wareham, MA while Clarence served 21 years in the US Coast Guard. In 1970 they moved home to Southwest Harbor where she worked at the Southwest Harbor town office as the Administrative Assistant from 1971 until her retirement in 1992. After her retirement, Clarence and Esther enjoyed winters in Florida for many years until finally coming home to Southwest Harbor. Esther loved to sew, knit, and crochet.
