Donna L. Mannetta

Donna Lorraine Mannetta, 61, of Bridgton, passed away on Sunday, Dec. 31, 2017, at her home.

She was born on Sept. 15, 1956, in Saugus, Mass., and was a longtime resident of Saugus and Haverhill, Mass. Donna graduated from Saugus High School and had been employed as an insurance sales agent for many years.

Donna was affectionately known as "Grandma from Maine;" her children and grandchildren were the light of her life. She was not only strong and courageous but independent and full of unconditional love. Her sense of humor and wit brightened the lives of many and we will all miss our, often multiple, daily phone calls.

Donna is survived by her loving boyfriend of 18 years, Paul Coelho; her beloved children, Michael (Maura), Brian (Jennifer), Maureen (Charlie) Cejour, Danielle, Craig; and her ex-husband and friend George. She leaves behind her grand "kiddos" Jameson, Jaysean, Keira, Sophia, and Ryan; sister Maxine (Willie) McKee; brother Perry (Wendy) Biegon; and brother-in-law Buddy. She was preceded in death by her loving parents Vinnie (Harris) and Max Biegon; and her twin sister Doryne Hynds.

Family and friends attended visitation on Sunday, Jan. 7, 2018, at Chandler Funeral Homes & Cremation Service, 8 Elm St., Bridgton.
