4157 LINCOLNVILLE - Joanne L McKee, 74, of Lincolnville, Maine, passed away at home on October 14, 2020, after a long struggle with cancer.
She was born in Rockland, on June 20, 1946 to John Harold Kaler and Zilda Viola (Russell) Kaler.
Joanne graduated from Camden Hills Regional High School in 1964, and later attended Thomas College, graduating with an associate degree in business.
Joanne married the love of her life, Robert Mckee, on January 8, 1966, giving birth to their twin sons (Robert Jr. and Randall) later that same year. She put her husband through college, working as the night supervisor at the University of Maine Fogler Library, where she especially loved working with incoming freshmen. This provided her a much needed break from the full time occupation of raising twins.
When her husband graduated in 1972, the family moved to Chestertown, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It was there that Joanne became involved with the Cub Scouts as a Den Mother, and discovered her love of horseback riding.
Joanne gave birth to their third son (Christopher) in 1977, and eventually returned to her work as a librarian at the Gunston School for Girls in Centreville, Maryland. Upon the family’s return to Maine, she became the librarian at the local grade school in Lincolnville. She also became involved with the Cub Scouts again, where she learned the hard way not to hold the nails for the scouts while they were building birdhouses.
Joanne loved to cook and entertain for her large family, and showered love upon her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She was an excellent knitter, and every child in the family received beautiful handmade sweaters for Christmas and Birthdays.
Spending time at the family’s camps was one of the many things Joanne loved. Eventually, she even convinced her own mother to join them on their trips to camp. Even when her husband wasn’t there to supervise. She loved doting on her mother, and was always able to lift her spirits with various adventures around town and to local restaurants.
Joanne is survived by her husband, Robert McKee of Lincolnville; siblings John Kaler of Searsmont and Delores Jalbert of Rockland; her sons, Robert McKee Jr., Randall (Jody) McKee and Christopher (Lydia) McKee.
Joanne is also survived by her grandchildren Meahgan, Virginia (Todd), Randy (Morgan), Nicholas, Fischer, Bella and Olivia; great grandchildren Elizabeth, Evelyn, Ashlyn and Maverick; and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Zilda (Russell) Kaler; her brother Robert Kaler; and her great granddaughter, Elise Dorr.
She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her. We will always carry her memory in our hearts.
A private Celebration of Life will be held in the summer of 2021. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Joanne’s name, to the Maine Cancer Foundation, www.mainecancer.org/ .
Condolences and memories may be shared with the family at www.longfuneralhomecamden.com.

4177 Lorraine's Obituary

Lorraine “Rain Rain” Butts

January 17, 1937 – March 21, 2025

Lorraine Butts spent a lifetime illuminating the world with her warmth, her laughter, and a love so steady and enduring that it felt like the ground beneath our feet—so constant we sometimes forgot to notice it, but so essential we would have crumbled without it.

Lorraine was the second of eleven children, a role that taught her responsibility, resilience, and the power of family bonds from an early age. She worked hard at her family's restaurant, Creamer’s Lobster Pound, where she put in long hours, never shying away from the demands of hard work. But Lorraine was never just about work—she was about people, about laughter, about finding joy in the simplest of moments.

After graduating, she set out into the world with big dreams and a sense of adventure. But when she made a stop in Brunswick, she stepped off the bus, took a look around, and promptly asked if she could get back on. That instinct led her to Portland, where fate had its own plans. She got a job working at the Miss Portland Diner. There, she met and married the love of her life, Harold Butts, the man she had always known was meant for her. She spent the next sixty years in mutual love and adoration, raising six children, admiring her grandchildren, spoiling her great grandchildren, and even getting to cherish her great-great grandchildren.

Harold had the kind of presence that filled a room. He was bold, boisterous, and full of life, the kind of man who could tell a story so well that even those who had heard it a hundred times still leaned in to listen. And if Harold was the showman, Lorraine was the one who made sure the show went on. A magician is only as good as his assistant, after all. While Harold commanded the stage, Lorraine worked quietly behind the scenes, ensuring that everything ran smoothly—not just in their marriage but in their family, in their home, in every piece of life they built together. She was the conductor, the foundation, the one who made it all hold together.

Lorraine built a life rich with love, laughter, and even a little bit of competitive spirit. She loved playing bingo, where she never lost her thrill for a winning card. She played cards with her sisters, daughters, and friends—not only for fun, but with the kind of fiery spirit that made every game an event. She had a knack for finding treasures at garage sales, a love for rearranging her furniture (sometimes to the confusion of everyone else in the house), and an unmatched green thumb that turned her garden and greenhouse into a haven of beauty.

And always, there was her laughter. Lorraine’s laugh wasn’t just a sound, it was an experience. It started small, built to tears streaming down her face, and, if she laughed hard enough, made her cross her legs just in case. Her joy was infectious, a kind of light that could brighten even the darkest days.

She loved country-western and early rock and roll. A favorite, You Are My Sunshine, wasn’t just a song, it was a promise, a lullaby, a memory passed from one generation to the next. She sang it to those she loved, and when her grandchildren nicknamed her “Rain Rain,” it only made the words truer—because for all of us, through every season and skies of gray, Lorraine was our sunshine.

Above all else, she loved her family. She wasn’t the kind of person who simply told you she loved you, she showed it, in the way she worked, in the way she cared, in the way she gave.

She leaves behind a family that will forever hear her laughter in the echoes of a well-played hand of cards, see her love in the bright petals of a spring bloom, and feel her presence in every note of an old familiar song. She was the wind beneath our wings, the kind of love that does not demand attention but is felt in every moment.

And oh, how we will miss her.

The family appreciates all of the prayers, love, and support at this time. Lorraine will be laid to rest in a small, private ceremony.

4194 Lucille E. Jones, 89, passed away peacefully November 5, 2021, at the Knox Center for Long Term Care in Rockland with her daughter Barbara by her side.

Lucille was the daughter of Lempe (Alajoki) and Albert Quinn. She grew up on Rankin Street in Rockland. After losing her mother at the age of six she moved to North Haven to live with her paternal grandparents, Paulina and George Quinn. She always spoke fondly of her grandparents and her years on the island.

She returned to Rockville as a teenager and attended Rockport High School, graduating with the class of 1950. During that time, she met the love of her life, Bob. They were married in 1951 and enjoyed 69 years together. Bob was the boy next door, they met on the school bus when Bob's family moved to Rockport. They purchased a house on the same street where they met and grew up and made that house their home for over 60 years.

Lucille worked as a bookkeeper, until her two children were born. She loved being a mother and happily stayed at home to raise her children. After her children were grown, she returned to work as a part-time bookkeeper at Libby Chevrolet in Rockport. She enjoyed her work there for many years before retiring.

Lucille had a special talent for decorating and knew how to make a comfortable and cozy home.

Summers were filled with family members from near and far. It was a time for fun, beach outings, and lots of picnics. Lucille was a good cook and loved to bake. Her two children arrived home from school to freshly baked cookies, brownies, or whoopie pies. There was always a candy dish filled with seasonal treats.

She and Bob loved to garden, and spent many hours together planting, weeding, and pruning. She almost always had a freshly picked bouquet on her kitchen table. Lucille and Bob loved having pets. In their later years, they especially enjoyed their little dog Angel.

Lucille loved to shop and decorate for the holidays. She never forgot a birthday and would find just the right card and gift for every occasion. While she loved being Mom, being grandmother was even better. She was happiest when surrounded by her grandchildren, and later her great-grandchildren.

All that knew and loved Lucille, knew she spoke her mind freely and without reservation. She loved to talk and kept in touch with her many friends and school mates through the years. Family and friends meant the world to her.

Other than her parents, Lucille was predeceased by her husband, Bob; son, Bobby (Robert Jr.); and brother, George Quinn.

She is survived by her daughter, Barbara Peabody and husband Tim; daughter-in-law, Theresa Jones and partner Roland Croteau; sister-in-law Beverly Quinn; step-sister Ninon Lohnes; half-sisters Mary Peterson and husband Steve, and Becky Merrill; grandchildren, Emily MacCabe and husband Kris, Rachel Jones, Tyler Jones and wife Abby, Andrew Peabody and wife Tami, and Benjamin Peabody; great-grandchildren Trinity, Taryn, Taylor, Elliot, Parker, Mallory, Georgia, and Wilder, as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins.

A service for Lucille will be held in May 2022 and will be announced. To share a memory or story with Lucille's family, please visit their online Book of Memories at www.bchfh.com.
