YARMOUTH — Harriett I. Sage, 97, passed away peacefully on Monday, Feb. 15, 2016 at the Brentwood Center for Health and Rehabilitation in Yarmouth.

Born in Sidney, New York, on Sept. 14, 1918, her family moved to Norwich, New York, where she met her husband, Earle. She raised her family there while running her artificial flower arranging business, “Juniper House.” Her arrangements were sold to Lord and Taylor and many other high-end stores in N.Y. state, New York City and northern Pennsylvania. In the early 70s she and her husband moved to St. Michaels, Maryland and then she moved to Center Lovell, Maine in 1993 with her husband and her daughter.

She was well-known for her award-winning oil paintings and furniture. She was always busy helping her daughter at the Center Lovell Inn, where she was known to all as “Mom.” She spent many hours volunteering at the Lovell United Christ Church where she made many friends.

She was predeceased by her husband in 2001. She is survived by her daughter Janice; son Timothy; daughter-in-law Jill and granddaughter Lindsey and her husband Pat.

Services will be held at a later date in Norwich, New York. In lieu of flowers contributions in Harriett’s memory may be sent to Lovell United Christ Church, PO Box 232, Lovell, ME 04051, or to Brentwood Center for Health and Rehabilitation, 370 Portland St., Yarmouth, ME 04096-8101
