Florence E. Pettengill

LACONIA ---Florence passed away peacefully at her home at the age of 86, in Laconia on Sunday September 2nd, surrounded by her family. Born in Newton, Massachusetts on April 30, 1932, Florence was the daughter of Earle P. Hubley and Mary Jane (Cress) Hubley. She was predeceased by 2 sisters and 2 brothers, Margaret Jenkins, Joan Sundeen, Earle and David Hubley. She is survived by her brother Richard Hubley and a sister Jean Meyers.
She is reunited with her husband of 56 years, Ramsey Wood Pettengill and their son Stephen Ramsey Pettengill. She is survived by her daughters Judith Ellen and David Kirk, Susan Sarah and Harvey Dougherty, Maryjane Pettengill and David Cooper, Joan Leslie Pettengill, Jan and Vernon Millis. She found much joy in her 13 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren.
Florence was a loving, devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She always put her family first and made everyone feel special and important. Florence was very active in the community. She was one of the founding members of the Interlakes Booster Club. She was a very talented seamstress, sewing prom dresses, cheerleading and majorette uniforms. She was not only a huge Interlakes Laker fan but she was an avid New England sports team fan!
Florence never shyed away from challenges. She stayed with the times and became computer savey. She was active on FaceBook where she stayed in touch with family and friends that were scattered country wide. She could be found playing Candy Crush on her kindle and sending messages to help others advance their game. Florence will be missed by those she left behind.
In honor of Florence Pettengill we ask that everyone take a moment and comfort those in need of comfort. Love unconditionally.
