Obituary for Marie G Armitstead (Lewis)
Marie Gail Armitstead (Lewis), 73, of Carver, passed away on Tuesday May 19,2020 at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital of Plymouth Massachusetts of complications from COVID19.
Marie was born in Concord, New Hampshire, and adopted by her parents Norval B. Lewis and Martha I Lewis (Pattinson).

Marie also worked for many years at Boston Edison/Entergy in their medical building performing fitness for duty physicals. She worked for many skilled nursing facilities since the closing of the Greenery and most recently worked for Emmanuel House/Connemara in Brockton.
When she wasn’t working she enjoyed spending time with her family especially her grandchildren, doing arts and crafts, cooking/baking, gardening, and was passionate about her hummingbirds.

Marie was cremated and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date when it is safe for all who loved her to celebrate together. Due to the current circumstances surrounding the COVID19 pandemic a scholarship in her name through Maine Central Institute is in progress and details to follow.
