UNION, MAINE

Beverlee Jane Tibbetts was born June 20, 1945 at Waldo County Hospital in Belfast. She passed away after a lingering illness at her residence at Crawford Commons, a nursing facility, in Union February 9 , 2026.

Always called Lee by her family, she was raised with her brother in Hampden and graduated from Hampden Academy in 1965. Lee lived in various residences in Hampden, Bangor where she was a long time member of the Essex Street Baptist Church, and Freedom where, for years, she helped care for her aging parents. And there, she enjoyed the company and friendship of her nephew, nieces and their families. Later Lee lived in assisted living facilities in Coopers Mills, Jefferson, and finally at Crawford Commons where she lived comfortably.

Lee was the daughter of Arthur J. Tibbetts, a victim of World War II, her mother Susan Mathieson Tibbetts Leeman, and her stepfather Guy S. Leeman.

Beverlee is survived by her brother Gary S. Leeman of Palermo, a nephew and nieces and their families, and several cousins.

A graveside service will be held in the spring in Hannan Cemetery, Palermo.
