Mildred was very talented with a needle and thread and enjoyed knitting, crocheting, making blankets for the animal shelters, Teddy Bears, Raggedy Ann & Andy’s and mittens. There wasn’t anything that she wasn’t willing to tackle. She also had a passion for jigsaw puzzles, a green thumb for gardening, loved road trips anywhere and always looked forward to new places to go. Most of all Mildred loved her family and playing with the kids and would improvise when needed, like taking a picket off the fence to use as a bat when they didn’t have one and hitting a home run.

She leaves behind a son, S. Paul Knight Jr and his partner Kimberly Keaney of Portland; a daughter, Cheryl Crocker of Brunswick; two sisters, Jean Chase and her husband James of Florida and Fran Lyden and her husband Steve of Bath.; and several grand and great grandchildren.
