Glenis met her best friend Fred William “Bill” Berry and the couple were married in 1946, resided in Bath for a few short years and made their permanent home in Woolwich to raise their family.
Glenis worked at Canal Bank in the Portland and Bath offices for many years. She also worked at the Woolwich Central School as the secretary and returning to the financial world retired from bath Savings Bank at the age of 65.
Glenis was very family oriented, always putting her girls first. There wasn’t anything she wouldn’t do for them. She loved spending time with them and looked forward to the holidays. In her early years, square dancing was a favorite of hers, as well as camping and knitting. Spending time with friends warmed her heart; she and Edith Cunningham would sit and play cards for hours. Traveling to camp in Eustis, reading and bus trips were other passions of hers.
Glenis was a member of the United
Church of Christ in
Bath.
She was predeceased by her husband Bill in 1999 and brother Leland Cunningham. She leaves behind 2 daughters, Sara Connor and her husband Donald of Topsham and Nancy Hemingway and her husband Stephen of Woolwich; a brother, Keith Cunningham of Lewiston; grandchildren, Benjamin Connor Adam Connor and Erin Connor, Matthew Hemingway, Anne Hemingway and Sarah Hemingway; great grandchildren, Caitlin Taylor and Miah Hemingway and many friends at Horizons whose care enriched her life.
