BRIDGTON — Allan Hjorth Wight, 69, of Fryeburg, died Monday afternoon, May 2, 2016, at the Bridgton Hospital after a long illness.

He was born on Sept. 25, 1946, in Portland, a son of Lester and Ingrid (Hjorth) Wight. He attended grade school in North Sebago and graduated from Potter Academy.

After graduation, he joined the Navy and served six years.

In June of 1967, he married Beverly McAlister of Lovell, and following his honorable discharge from the Navy, they bought their home in the Toll Bridge neighborhood of Fryeburg.

Allan worked for the Yield House after his service until the time of its closing, and then went to work for Lovell Lumber until his early retirement.

He loved being in the outdoors hunting and fishing, as well as a good game of cribbage. His greatest pleasure however, was time spent with his family.

Allan is loved by his wife of 48 years, Beverly “Bev,” and his son, Chris, both of Fryeburg. He was predeceased by his parents and a son, Kevin.

At Allan’s request, there will be no services. Arrangements are in the care of the Wood Funeral Home & Cremation Service, 9 Warren St., Fryeburg. Words of condolence and tribute may be shared with his family and friends at www.woodfuneralhome.org
