1924 – 2013

FALMOUTH — Adelaide “Addie” M. Castonguay, 89, went home to be with her Lord on Monday, Dec. 23, after a short illness.

She was born on Nov. 18, 1924, in Van Buren, to Thomas and Gertrude Ouellette as one of 17 children.

Addie spent much of her life supporting the elderly. She worked for the Auburn public school system as well as Bolster Heights Nursing Home. She brought love and laughter to everyone’s life she touched.

Addie loved her Lord and loved reading the Bible daily. Her family expresses their sincere and deep appreciation to the staff of Sedgewood Commons in Falmouth, for their loving care of Addie during her extended care at the facility.

Addie loved her family and built her life around them.

She is survived by five children, James and Kathy Castonguay of Greenville (grandson, Jarod, wife, Jen, and great-grandson, Kyle), Sandra and Norman Pinard of El Paso, Texas (granddaughter, Stacey Pinard), William and Brenda Castonguay of Raleigh, N.C., Jeffrey and Belinda Castonguay of Tampa, Fla.
