Anne Marie Henderson

CARIBOU - Anne Marie Henderson, 62, passed peacefully August 16, 2024 at her niece’s home surrounded by her family. Anne was born March 1, 1962 in Caribou to Grover and Arlene Henderson. 

Anne was born with down syndrome and was non-verbal but that did not stop her from being the life of the party. Despite, her disability Anne lived life to the fullest. She was an inspiration to those who loved her. Anne attended Opportunity Training Center in Presque Isle through her younger years and later attended Northern Aroostook Alternatives in Van Buren where she made many special friends and memories. 

Anne is survived by her sisters Rose Kelly, Becky Dixon, Albertine (Jerry) Smith, Irma (Charles) Hitchcock, Darlene Henderson, Donella Leavitt, Jenna (Tom) Anderson and several nieces and nephews. Anne will be greatly missed by niece, Nicole Cassidy and family, who so graciously ensured Anne passed comfortably and peacefully surrounded by those who loved her. 

Anne was predeceased by her loving parents, sisters Lorraine Kelly, Lorilee Henderson, Eleanor Peterson and brother Brian Kelly.

From a young age many individuals were involved in the care of Anne, they became family. Most recently she was with Soucy’s Foster Home and N&G Agency Home under the care of Sheila Soucy and Dustin Lausier. Previously, Anne was cared for and very loved by Linda Bard and family, Cher Gagnon and Lena Ruest. 

The family would like to extend a big thank you to Norther Light Home Care and Hospice for providing the best care and comfort to Anne and her family in her final days. A private graveside service will be held at later date. Arrangements by Mockler Funeral Home, Caribou.
