With heavy hearts we announce the passing of our mother to the loving arms of her heavenly Father.
Mom was a homemaker, doing all the work around the house that is required to raise a family. When we boys graduated and left home, she applied for a job in the Jonesport - Beals school system
and spent 15 plus years as a substitute teacher/study hall monitor. She loved to read, knit, listen to music and dance. She loved to eat and would try anything at least once. She loved people and always
saw the good in everybody; she invited everyone to visit her on her porch. She loved sitting on the porch in the sun with her binoculars watching the boats go by and listening to the men talk on the VHF radio. I can hear her say, "The mouths on those boys!" but she didn't stop listening. She was a neighborhood mom to all the kids; all were welcome to her home.
She is pre-deceased by her mom, Kathleen E. Smith/Palmer/Alley and her dad, Ernest S. Palmer; her husband, Calvert N. Carver; her son, Randy S. Blackwood; her twin sister, Lucille and Lucille's husband, Wayne Woodward; many aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews, all of whom are missed dearly. She is survived by sons Bill Blackwood, Ronald Carver and his wife, Lisa, Steven Carver, and daughter in-law Dot Blackwood; grandchildren, Shanna Blackwood, Erick Blackwood and his wife, Crystal, Terrell Carver, Kristy Blackwood and her partner, Joe Murray, Noel Blackwood and his wife, Andrea, and Royce Blackwood. Her surviving great-grandchildren are Zach Vincent, Emma Vincent, Tyler Blackwood, and Caden Blackwood. She is also remembered by many family members and friends. She was a proud member of the Jonesport Historical Society and served as an officer for many years.
A Graveside Service will be held at 1:00 pm June 14, 2023, at the Greenwood Cemetery in Jonesport, Maine.
