MANCHESTER - Luena Ashton Dawes passed away Jan. 2, 2011, after a long life, filled with friends, family and memories.
She was born April 21, 1926, in Lewiston, to John and Selma Ashton, the sixth of their eight children.

She met and married Alfred F Dawes Jr., and they raised their two daughters in Auburn. After graduating from Lewiston High School, Lu worked at the Lewiston Public Library.

She also leaves behind grandsons, Jason Worthing, and his family -- wife, Maki, great-grandchildren Kaiya and Dillon of Okinawa, Japan; and Jacob Worthing of Manchester. She is survived by a special sister, Marge Ashton Cormier, of Lewiston; and sister-in-law Amy Ashton. Special nieces and nephews include Bill Sterritt, Don Ashton, Don Woodbury, Barbara Ashton Annear, Ernie Ashton and Stephen Cormier and their families. (Kennebec Journal 1/4/2011)
