BREWER - Mary-Lynne Eason, 73, passed away due to unexpected circumstances November 16, 2024, at Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center. She was born in that very hospital November 27, 1950, the daughter of Ernest Burgess and Ernestine (Clark) Burgess.
Mary-Lynne was a selfless single mother of two who worked for the Bangor and later Brewer Housing Authorities, handling their Section 8 programs respectively until her retirement. She enjoyed trips to Disney with her family and friends, making a point to bring joy to other vacationing families through random acts of kindness. She excelled at many hobbies including dress/costume making, jewelry/ornament crafting, and baking, much to the enjoyment of the recipients of such gifts.
In addition to her parents, Mary-Lynne was predeceased by her brother, Butch; daughter, Sarah, and her lovingly spoiled cat, Oscar. She is survived by her son, Patrick Eason and his wife, Micayla; sister, Rosie; nieces, Frankie and Gretchen; nephews, Shawn and Doug; and the many “kids” that grew to call her mom.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend a reception celebrating Mary-Lynne’s life from 1-3 p.m. Friday, November 29, 2024, at the Family Reception Center of Brookings-Smith, 163 Center St. in Bangor. Those who wish to remember Mary-Lynne in a special way are encouraged to make a donation in her and Oscar’s name to the Bangor Humane Society, 693 Mt. Hope Avenue Bangor, ME 04401.
