VASSALBORO, MAINE
Carol J. Hughes - age 77, of Vassalboro, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her family on October 3, 2018. She was born in Norwalk, CT, on December 24, 1940, the daughter of the late Stephen & Carmella (Cossuto) Csengery.
Carol was a 1958 graduate of Erskine Academy. In 1960, she met & married Myron Hughes. They built their home and raised their family on Cross Hill Road. Her love of children encouraged her to work as a teachers' aide & cook with SKCDC-Lake Region Center for 42 years before retiring in 2012.
She enjoyed watching the birds gather around the feeders outside her kitchen window. Each morning one could find her working on the newspaper's daily crossword & jumble with a cup of coffee in hand. Carol loved being in the sun & spent hours in her flower gardens. Spending time at Sunday Bingo with her sister Shirley at the Winslow VFW was a must.
Carol was predeceased by her parents, husband Myron, and her brother Albert.
She is survived by her sons, William, Stephen and his wife Lisa, Tim and Karen Hughes all of Vassalboro. ME, daughters, Katie Hughes & Wayne Picard of Vassalboro, ME & Cindy St. Peter and Bob Bower of Monmouth, ME; sister Shirley McQuarrie; brother Joseph and his wife Cheryl Csengery of Vassalboro, ME; six grandchildren, Jonathan, Corrie, Miranda, Angela, Ryan & Tyler; five great-grandchildren, Spencer, Tanner, Aaliyah, Peyton & Tiffany & several nieces & nephews.
