SACO — Beatrice T. Caron, 82, of Saco, passed away on Monday, April 15, 2019, at Southern Maine Health Care in Biddeford.
She was born in Biddeford on Jan. 18, 1937, a daughter of Ludger and Rose Eva (Tardif) Caron.
Beatrice was employed as an office manager for Metropolitan Life Insurance Company for over 30 years.
Beatrice had great faith and was a parishioner of the former Notre Dame de Lourdes and most recently Most Holy Trinity Church in Saco. She was very active in parish life, serving as a lector, and she also supported many church ministries.

The members live a vowed life within the world and serve the poor and needy in many countries. She also volunteered for Marie Joseph Spiritual Center in Biddeford Pool. Beatrice desired “to make Jesus Christ known, to love and light the fire of God’s love everywhere.”
Most of all, Beatrice will be remembered by many as kind, fun loving, and deeply committed to her faith. She will be sadly missed by many.
