Andrea Wing

WEST PARIS — Andrea Wing, 73, of South Woodstock, passed away on Sunday, Oct. 3, 2010 with her family by her side.

Andrea was born at home in Woodstock, July 21, 1937, to Leon L. and Helen (Benson) Poland. She attended Forestdale School and graduated from Woodstock High School. Andrea married Richard Wing and they celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary in March of this year.

She was employed for many years by the A.S.C.S. Oxford County office. After her retirement, she enjoyed writing the South Woodstock news column for the Bethel Citizen. She also enjoyed playing hymns and old songs on her organ. The many family babies and her precious cats gave her great pleasure. Everyone will miss her quick wit and sense of humor.
