Elaine Wadsworth MacLennan

Elaine Wadsworth MacLennan 1931 – 2020 FREEPORT – Elaine Wadsworth MacLennan passed peacefully into her final sleep on August 15, 2020, just hours after a poignant last visit with her daughters, Carol MacLennan and Nancy (MacLennan) Neuhaus at Hawthorne House in Freeport, where she spent the final year of her life. Elaine is survived by her two daughters, Carol and Nancy, two sons, Steven and Bruce MacLennan; seven grandchildren, Katherine Brandt (Carol’s daughter), John and Marisa MacLennan (Steven’s son and daughter), and Angus and Jack Minamoto, and Ewan and Evan MacLennan (Bruce’s sons); and her children’s spouses, who were like daughters and sons to Elaine, Steven’s wife Mary Beth, Bruce’s wife Kanako, and Nancy’s husband Mark, who cared for Elaine alongside Nancy and Carol throughout Elaine’s later years.
