Ramona Joan Vance
1946-2024
With tremendous sadness, the family of Ramona Joan (Thorne)
Vance, devoted wife of Gary Vance, announce her sudden passing at her
home on March 22, 2024. Ramona was born on May 7, 1946 to the late
Clifton and Marie (Kingston) Thorne.
Ramona was a hard and multi-talented worker her entire life.
Whether it be waitressing in her early years, to managing a takeout
restaurant and convenience store, to co-owning and managing
Vance’s Garage with her husband, and most recently her son,
for countless years, and was still actively working until the time of
her passing. Ramona loved and enjoyed the simple pleasures of life,
including a clean and shiny car, her flower gardens, going to yard
sales, Bangor shopping with her BFF’s Brenda, Donna and
Paulette, purses and shoes and eating out just to name a few. But most
importantly, she deeply loved her family, especially her
grandchildren, who brought her a huge amount of pride and joy. She had
a big and generous heart, an infectious smile, and was a friendly face
to many in the community.
Besides Gary, her husband of 56 years, Ramona is survived by
her son Kevin (Joan), her daughter Julie Craig (Aaron), grandchildren
Kate (Mark), Alec, Hannah, Addison, Sophy and Bryce, great-grandson
Hudson, daughter-in-law Jennifer Vance, her mother-in-law Avis Vance
of Fundy Nursing Home, her sisters Mary Young (Roger) and Patty Frost
(Mort), her brothers Clifton (Deanie), Bobby (Belinda), Joseph
(Debbie) and Chris (Brenda), sisters-in-law Nancy Thorne Deveau
(Raymond) and Paulette Kehl (Robert), brothers-in-law Larry (Kim),
Wayne (Diana) and Greg, her special friends Brenda Barry, Donna Coutts
and Paulette Wentworth, several nieces, nephews, and cousins and a
community of friends. In addition to her parents, Ramona was
predeceased by her brothers Edward and David, father-in-law Norman
Vance, sister-in-law Barbara Thorne.
