MARY ROLLINS Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 3, 2024.
Mary Ellen Rollins (née Hildreth), aged 75, passed away on June 16, 1948, in Franklin, New Hampshire. Known for her loving and helpful nature, Mary dedicated much of her life to caring for her family and others. She was renowned for her skills in knitting and crocheting, often crafting beautiful afghans that were cherished by many. Her kindness and generosity touched everyone she met, always giving more than she received.

Mary spent her professional years at Snowy Owl in Waterville Valley, but her true vocation was as a caregiver and homemaker, roles in which she excelled and found great fulfillment. She created a warm and loving environment, not only for her family but for all those who had the privilege of knowing her.

She is survived by her son, Bill Strout; grandsons, Anthony and Patrick Strout, Mason and Adam Gagne; granddaughters, Sheyna, Heather, Liberty, Heather, Courtney, and Jasmine; and her sister, Priscilla Downing. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Roger Rollins, and her daughters, Sally Gagne and Connie Vargas.

A service was held in her honor on June 22, 2024, at Glencliff Cemetery on High Street. Mayhews Funeral Home in Meredith, NH, assisted with the arrangements. Mary's life and legacy will forever be remembered by those who were fortunate enough to know her.

I was with her when Adam and Mason Gagne found their brother Jordan Ratliff. She was so happy to know where he was after years of searching.
