Beth (Berube) Kelson, 95, of Bridgton, passed away peacefully at home on Friday, March 1, 2019, with her family at her side.

She was born Oct. 4, 1923, in Westbrook, to Edgar and Auora Berube; graduated from Westbrook High School, and married Richard “Dick” Kelson, also from Westbrook.

Beth was a wonderful wife, mother and the best Gramma Honey in the world. She cherished her close-knit family and all the special moments spent with them. She had a unique sense of humor that made her special to everyone that knew her. She showered her loved ones with love and laughter, right to her last day with them. We are one lucky family. We will miss her more than words can express.

Beth was predeceased by her parents and her six brothers.

She is survived by her husband of 60 years, Dick; her daughters, Marcia and Susan, as well as her sons, Bruce and Brian; her daughter-in-law, seven grandchildren and three great-granddaughters.

Private family services will be held at the Maine Veteran’s Cemetery in Augusta.
