Florence M. Connors, died peacefully at her Wiscasset home on Oct. 18, 2014 with her loving granddaughter Anne by her side.

Florence May Brookings was born on June 29, 1918 in Wiscasset to Everett and Frances Brookings. She married John Connors, her teenage sweetheart, at the tender age of 16, and together their union produced four sons, John Jr., Edward, Kenneth and Victor.

Florence was a devout Christian attending church in her younger days, then watching Sunday services on the television when she no longer physically could manage outings. She had the privilege of observing multiple generations brought into this world and engaging in their lives.

Florence was predeceased by her husband, John Connors; three sons, John Jr., Edward and Victor; one granddaughter, Julie Ann Connors; three sisters, Dorothy Pendleton, Frances Orr and Kathryn Reed; and two brothers, Randall and Donald Brookings.

Florence is survived by one son, Kenneth Connors of Wiscasset; three granddaughters, Anne (Connors) Wright of Wiscasset, Gail (Connors) Holbrook of Woolwich, and Julie Marie (Connors) Wagner of Seguin, Texas; three grandsons, Sean Connors of Austin, Texas, Jody Connors of Wiscasset and Steven Connors of Saco; 10 great-grandchildren, Michael Connors, Taneika Wright and Wayne Wright Jr., Jonathan, Brittany and Andi Connors, Jordan and Taylor Wagner, Matthew and Mallory Holbrook; seven great-great-grandchildren, Mikel and Kayla Connors, Qiana Hyman, Latisha, Alezaya, Makynlee and Tayia Wright; three nieces, three nephews and many other individuals who had their lives touched by Florence in some way.

Florence may now rest in peace reuniting with those she often spoke of and so greatly missed.
