Mabel Argraves-Sharpe

Mabel Argraves-Sharpe, 63, passed away on December 15, 2025, in Bangor, Maine. Born on October 23, 1962, in Lincoln, Maine, she brought warmth and joy to those around her throughout her life.

Mabel was the beloved daughter of Gerald Jipson and the late Goldie Jipson. She shared a close bond with her three sisters-Betty Larson, Trudy Rhyne, and Peggy Cloutier-who were part of the strong family ties that shaped her life.

She was a devoted mother to her three children: Gerald Sawyer, Amy McCann, and Brandy Gray. Her love extended deeply to her grandchildren-Jessica Sawyer, Gerald Sawyer, Mandy McCann, Timothy McCann, Edwin McCann, Mackenzie Gray, and Shelby Gray-each of whom held a special place in her heart.

Mabel found peace and happiness by the ocean. The scent of saltwater and the rhythmic sound of waves brought her comfort and joy. Her love for the sea reflected her deep appreciation for life's simple pleasures.

Holidays were especially meaningful to Mabel. She celebrated each one with enthusiasm and care, but Christmas held a particularly cherished place in her heart. She delighted in listening to Christmas music and wrapping presents beneath the soft glow of twinkling lights. One of her greatest joys was gathering with her children and grandchildren on Christmas morning-watching them laugh together under the tree created memories she treasured most.

Mabel's presence will be deeply missed by all who knew her. May her memory bring comfort to those who loved her and continue to shine as brightly as the lights she so adored during the holiday season.
