He was appointed to the District Court bench in February 1989, serving in Belfast for a time. He also served the court in Bar Harbor until that court was closed in 2005. Notably, Bernie was the District Court judge in Ellsworth for over 21 years. During his time on the bench, he oversaw thousands of cases, primarily involving family law, child protective and criminal law matters. Bernie took his responsibility as the judge in Hancock County very seriously, spending most weekends in his office writing decisions. Above all, he believed that serving the citizens of Hancock County meant serving not only the adults, but most importantly the children in the family law and child protective matters he dealt with most days. Bernie retired in 2010, and enrolled in Grace Evangelical Seminary in Bangor. A deeply religious man, he enjoyed the education he received, keeping himself fully engaged studying Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic. He welcomed all of his church family entirely into his life as close members of his community, and continued to be involved with them until his passing. Bernie was a member of the Church of Our Father in Hulls Cove for decades, but also enjoyed being a part of the church communities at the Southwest Harbor Congregational Church and the Tremont Congregational Church. Bernie also was very involved in his community in roles other than as a judge and devout Christian; he was part of the SAFE Family Exchange in Hancock County, which provides a safe and peaceful setting for high conflict families to exchange their children for visitation, and in the past he was one of the founding members of the MDI Alcohol and Drug Abuse Group. He was a member of the Bar Harbor Rotary, as well as a past member of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons. Bernie enjoyed many recreational activities. Never content to sit and let life pass him by, in the past he would take yearly sailing trips with his friends for a week exploring many locations together. He was a lifelong reader, belonging to a very vibrant book club made up of close friends. Bernie loved music and theater, enjoying thoroughly the Met shows at The Grand. While in college he even once performed in "Brigadoon." He did not have a singing role, however. More recently, Bernie found a passion for kayaking, finding great pleasure and a closer relationship with his Father while paddling beautiful locations with a very close kayaking "buddy," who was much like a son to him. He is survived by his daughter, Heather Staples of Bar Harbor, who also is an attorney and engaged him nightly in legal argument; Bernie usually won. He also is survived by his daughter-in-law, Michelle Staples of Bar Harbor, who brought great joy to his life along with a certain peacefulness that words cannot express. He is further survived by his much loved cousins, James and Harriet O'Neil of Thomaston. Bernie will be greatly missed by his two cats, Stella and Spats; and a beagle named Hank. Bernie was predeceased by his wife, Jeanette, who passed in 2006. Bernie, as a lawyer and a judge, may be remembered by many things, but perhaps one concept would be of primary importance: "De minimis non curat lex." Or, "the law does not bother itself with little things." Bernie always focused on the key issues of every case and controversy brought before him, giving great heed to the evidence and arguments made about law by his peers, but did not fail to see the big picture and he gave justice fairly and honestly.

Jeanette retired from her employ as librarian at the Jesup Memorial Library, and Bernie continued in his practice, notably as county attorney for Hancock County for a term.

He and Mary loved spending time there and riding the back roads, especially the ones that weren't passable by car. Those were the ones he liked to see if he could go through! Much to Mary's chagrin. He also loved watching the Red Sox and traveling by car. He'd go anywhere he could drive. He and Mary drove around the circumference of the United States on one trip among the many. Even in his later years, he went for a ride every day for coffee and a sandwich. And as everyone knows one of his favorite things was eating. He could eat a whole pie in one sitting if he could get away with it. Anyone who knew Earl would surely say he was witty and a jokester. He loved to tease everyone, especially the great grandkids. He would do anything for them. He was a good-hearted man who spoke his mind and would do anything for anyone in need. He was predeceased by his parents; brother, Dana Gammon; sister, Avis Luce; daughter, Rebecca Jean Gammon. He is survived by his wife of 69 years, Mary (Berry) Gammon, of Warren; son, Earl Mark Gammon and his wife, Carol, of Warren, their family Alicia and Terry Costa; daughter, Annette Johnson and her husband, Dana, of Waldoboro, their family Lindsey and Michael Ward, Grace, Clair, Gabriel, and Benjamin, Jill and Lance Lee, Cora and Ivy, Rachel Johnson and Dan Shay, Miley Black, and Aleah Shay; sister, Norma Abbott and her husband, John, of Ridgecrest, Calif.; four grandchildren; and nine great-grandchildren; and brother-in-law, Willis Berry, of Warren. A private graveside service with military honors will be held at the Fairview Cemetery in Warren. A gathering of Odd Fellow Family and friends will be held at 5 p.m., Friday, June 3 at the I.O.O.F. Warren Lodge. Condolences may be shared with the family at hallfuneralhomes.com. Arrangements are entrusted to Hall Funeral Home and Midcoast Crematory, 949 Main St., Waldoboro.

| 3900 | LifeSketch Earl W. Gammon, 90, starb am 28. Mai 2022 im Sussman House in Rockport. Er wurde am 9. April 1932 in Warren als Sohn von Edwin Gammon und Mildred (Waltz) Gammon geboren. Earl wuchs in Warren auf und machte seinen Abschluss an der Warren High School. Während des Koreakriegs diente er in der US-Armee. 1953 heiratete er seine Jugendliebe Mary Berry. Earl war Elektriker. Sein Vater erlernte die Ausbildung zum Elektriker, dem er zu Bath Iron Works folgte, wo er 43 Jahre lang bis zu seiner Pensionierung 1994 arbeitete. Nebenbei erledigte Earl zahlreiche Elektroinstallationsarbeiten, unter anderem im Haus seines Sohnes und seiner Tochter. In den 1960er Jahren baute Earl Kürbisse für die Medomak Canning Co. für deren Marke One-Pie an. Außerdem fuhr Earl 50 Jahre lang jedes Wochenende treu seine Müllabfuhr in Warren. Dabei hielt er die Preise niedrig oder sogar kostenlos. Er verlangte von seinen Kunden niemals Geld. Earl war ein großzügiger Mann und tat alles für jeden. Er war stolz auf seine Familie, insbesondere auf seine Familie Gammon und Martin. Earl mähte und pflegte viele Jahre lang zahlreiche Friedhöfe in Warren. Er engagierte sich sehr in der Gemeinde. Er war Mitglied der Warren Tiger Engine Co., Mitglied der White Oak Grange, Stadtrat von Warren und Mitglied des Schulrats der MSAD 40 und half bei der Gründung des Bauprojekts der Medomak Valley High School. Earl war 73 Jahre lang stolzes und engagiertes Mitglied der Warren Lodge IOOF Nr. 127. Er trat ihr mit 17 Jahren bei und bekleidete jedes Amt. Er leistete wertvolle Hilfe bei der Gründung des Hotdog-Stands am Warren Day, der zur Union Fair umzog, wo er bis heute erfolgreich ist. Er briet Burger, besorgte Vorräte und führte die Buchhaltung, da er ein Mathematik-Ass war. Er war außerdem bekannt für seine Expertise und seine Liebe zum Cribbage und dafür, bis in die frühen Morgenstunden in der Lodge zu bleiben, um noch ein Spiel zu spielen. Er würde Ihre Karten und seine Karten zählen lassen, bevor die Karten auf den Tisch lagen. Earl liebte es, dass die Familie nach Lily Bay am Moosehead Lake kam. Er half seinem Vater, zusammen mit vielen anderen, 1955 das Camp aufzubauen. Damals gab es nur unbefestigte Straßen, und die Zufahrt war schwierig. Er und Mary liebten es, Zeit dort zu verbringen und die Nebenstraßen zu befahren, besonders die, die mit dem Auto nicht befahrbar waren. Das waren die, auf denen er gerne austestete, ob er durchkam! Sehr zu Marys Verdruss. Er liebte es auch, die Red Sox zu sehen und mit dem Auto zu reisen. Er fuhr überall hin, wo er fahren konnte. Auf einer von vielen Reisen umrundeten er und Mary die gesamten Vereinigten Staaten. Selbst in seinen späteren Jahren fuhr er jeden Tag mit dem Auto, um Kaffee und ein Sandwich zu essen. Und wie jeder weiß, war Essen eine seiner Lieblingsbeschäftigungen. Er konnte einen ganzen Kuchen auf einmal essen, wenn er es sich erlauben konnte. Jeder, der Earl kannte, würde sicher sagen, dass er witzig und ein Witzbold war. Er liebte es, alle zu necken, besonders die Urenkel. Er würde alles für sie tun. Er war ein gutherziger Mann, der seine Meinung sagte und alles für jeden tat, der Hilfe brauchte. Vor ihm starben seine Eltern, sein Bruder Dana Gammon, seine Schwester Avis Luce und seine Tochter Rebecca Jean Gammon. Er hinterlässt seine Frau Mary (Berry) Gammon, mit der er 69 Jahre verheiratet war, aus Warren, seinen Sohn Earl Mark Gammon und dessen Frau Carol aus Warren, deren Familie Alicia und Terry Costa, seine Tochter Annette Johnson und ihren Mann Dana aus Waldoboro, deren Familie Lindsey und Michael Ward, Grace, Clair, Gabriel und Benjamin, Jill und Lance Lee, Cora und Ivy, Rachel Johnson und Dan Shay, Miley Black und Aleah Shay, seine Schwester Norma Abbott und ihren Mann John aus Ridgecrest, Kalifornien, vier Enkel und neun Urenkel sowie seinen Schwager Willis Berry aus Warren. Eine private Trauerfeier mit militärischen Ehren findet auf dem Fairview Cemetery in Warren statt. Ein Treffen der Familie und Freunde von Odd Fellow findet am Freitag, dem 3. Juni, um 17:00 Uhr in der I.O.O.F. Warren Lodge statt. Beileidsbekundungen können der Familie unter hallfuneralhomes.com übermittelt werden. Die Organisation liegt beim Bestattungsinstitut Hall und dem Krematorium Midcoast, Main Street 949, Waldoboro. The Lincoln County News, 1. Juni 2022 | GAMMON, Earl William (I43402)
