Sunset over Sebago

Rick Paige

August 6, 2018

Zee's laughter and smiles brightened every day . We have so many fond memories of her and family at Bear Island . She took so much pride of her artwork and enjoyment of lake life . Water skiing for many years on what she called her Banana Skis , Fishing by Mikes side in the 4 Boys and Pontoon boat , all the numerous cocktail parties at her beloved Lake House and the stories about Sebago Lake life past and present . She will remain in all our memories of her and others who have passed in our tight knit community of Cub point and Bear Island . I still remember her letting me know that they were serving my favorite Lemon maringue pie at the Point . She will always be in my thoughts of the Lake she enjoyed , Her early morning sunrise swims to all the glorious sunsets she so enjoyed by her family's side .
