Ernestine Morin Obituary
Her greatest joy were her children and grandchildren and spending time having them all around her. Most weekends there was always a visit for lunch or supper from at least one of them and more often several of them.
Ernestine and her husband Ray celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary last April.
She was a communicate of St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church.
She enjoyed going to the beach or the lake especially Sebago Lake where she and her family and extended family spent many summers at camp or at the State Park. In more recent years, sitting in the sun on her back deck seemed like a day at the beach for her. She loved going to Foxwood Casino and looked forward to the monthly trip on the bus with her sister Eugenia and her Aunt Franny and Aunt Maddy, or Wednesday mornings playing Scat at the Italian Heritage Center where she was a lifetime member.
Besides her husband, she leaves her six children, Teresa of Portland, Dana and his wife Kathy of Standish, Patty and her husband Michael, Michael and his wife Peggy, Heather and her husband Ricky all of Portland, and Nikki and her husband Morgan of Windham; two sisters, Camilla Vassar and her husband William and her sister, Eugenia Norris and her husband, Ronald; grandchildren: Nicholas, Christopher, Lindsay, Cassie, Sophia, Thomas and Patrick. Also, survived by many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.
She had many friends and will be remember for her great sense of humor.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend a time of visitation Wednesday, January 19, 2011 from 4-8 p.m. at Jones, Rich & Hutchins Funeral Home 199 Woodford St.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated, Thursday January 20, 2011 at 10 am at St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church 72 Federal St. Interment will follow in Calvary Cemetery.
Please visit www.jonesrichandhutchins.com for additional information and to sign Ernestine's guest book.
Arrangements under the direction of Jones-Rich-Hutchins Funeral Home, Portland, ME.

I am so sorry for your loss, and my thoughts are with you. I am sorry I was unable to be with you on Thursday, but I hope you know that I was in my heart. Please let me know if there is anything I can do.

I will never forget Tine's kindness towards and understanding of my mother during so many Christmas dinners over the years; and for me, the big welcome into the extended Salomone family, 40 years ago.

Ray and all the family I am so sorry for the loss of such a wonderful lady. Words can't begin to touch on the way she made myself and everyone around her feel so loved and special all the time no matter how busy she was. While we may not have her here to guide us though life as she always did. We can take what she gave to us and continue doing that for our family's to forever keep her memory alive. I am so sorry I am unable to be there for today but I will see you all very soon. All my love Eric

Steve and I will miss Ernestine very much. This last year has been very difficult for all of you. We saw her at her best and worst and through it all, she was almost always smiling. She loved all of you VERY much and you could just feel it when you were around her and she would talk about the family. She always made you feel welcome and there was always laughter when she was around. She will be greatly missed by a lot of people that she touched in her life. If you are ever feeling down, just remember all the happy times that you had with her. We will miss her terribly, but will think of her fondly and smile. If any of you need anything, please let us know.

Dear Ray & Family,
I miss Ernestine with all my heart and I remember so may things about her. She thought ALL children were darlins' and her smile lit up the room. I remember Ray the day over 50 years ago that you brought Ernestine to meet mom & dad and Trish and I were pesky little sisters and hid behind the chair to peek at her. She always smiled - always!! May she Rest In Peace and know she lives on in your and our memories.

Dear Ray & Family -
We will always remember Ernie for her sense of humor, warm smile and for being a great long-time family friend and neighbor. My parents had very happy memories of the summer-time gatherings on the front porch with you and Ernie. Being a kid at that time, I don't remember the topics of conversation, but I do remember lots of joking and laughter. Nice memories for sure.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. With deepest sympathy, The Mayo's - Bill, Sandra, Doug & Scott.
