Obituary for Linda E. Mason
Ellsworth
Linda E. Bragdon Mason, 72, died unexpectedly December 19, 2022, in Ellsworth. She was born in Ellsworth September 6, 1950, the daughter of Lester E. Bragdon and Rachel E. Bragdon Hutchins.
Linda graduated from Ellsworth High School in 1968. After high school she worked waitressing, in retail, and for most of her career in billing and human resources at a local hospital. She enjoyed communicating by CB radio when it was popular, doing ceramics, crocheting, and watching Boston sports teams.
She loved cooking for family gatherings, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas, always cooking enough for leftovers to go home. We will all miss her chex mix, peanut butter fudge, deviled eggs, and beef stew. The family poker nights will not be the same without her huge smile when winning and sarcastic comments.
Linda loved her grandchildren and enjoyed attending birthday parties, school events, and graduations. She enjoyed caring for them when they were young. Linda truly loved showering them and family with gifts, usually taking days off after Christmas to start shopping for the next Christmas.
Linda is survived by her life partner, Neil McKay: daughter Stephanie Currier and husband Sean; two sons Timothy Mason and wife Tara, and Shawn McKay: brother Wayne Bragdon and two sisters Mary Wood and husband Peter, and Judy Tucker; seven grandchildren, Stephanie’s children, Rachel and Spencer Harris and Colby Currier, Tim’s children Taylor and Tanner Mason, Shawn’s children Kelly and Sam McKay as well as six cherished nieces and nephews, and great nieces and nephews. Linda was predeceased by close family member Michael DiGangi.
A memorial service will be held 10am, Friday Dec. 23, 2022, at Jordan-Fernald, 113 Franklin St. Ellsworth with Pastor Robert Maddocks presiding.
Those who desire may make contributions in Linda’s memory to the SPCA of Hancock County, 141 Bar Harbor Rd., Trenton, ME 04605.
