Obituary

Marie Hood, 86, of Otis, died Tuesday, March 20, 2018 at Fairview Hospital with her family at her side. She was born in Brooklyn, NY on November 15, 1931, the daughter of Eugene and Lillian Hofling. As a teenager Marie and her family moved to Otis. Marie graduated from Lee High School. Marie married Howard Hood on June 11, 1950 and eventually raised four boys. For years she ran the Corner Store which served the Big Pond Association in East Otis. She was a member of the Otis Congregational Church Choir and former secretary for the Senior Center. Marie had an adventurous spirit which took her on many camping trips to places near and far. She was a dreamer and kind soul who was always there to talk to or just listen. Most of all, Marie enjoyed her time spent with her family and especially her two grandchildren. Besides her husband, Marie leaves behind her four sons: Ronald of North Carolina, Jonathan of Florida, Joseph of Otis and Paul of New Hampshire. She also leaves her two grandchildren: David and Crystal. Funeral Services for Marie Hood will be held Friday, March 23, 2018 at 11AM at the Kelly Funeral Home with Pastor Doug Mann officiating.
