CALAIS - Alvin S. Daggett, 89, passed away Sunday, Nov. 10, 2013, at a Bangor nursing facility. Alvin was born May 30, 1924, in Danforth, son of the late Frank and Lila (Weeks) Daggett.
Alvin graduated from Danforth High School and enlisted into the Army Air Corps where he served as an airplane mechanic. Following his service, he returned home and helped his father in the family business working road construction. While working on the roads in Baring he met his future wife, Dorothy Stewart, whom he married in Calais on July 8, 1955.
Alvin worked for Eastern Maine Electric Coop, initially as a power plant operator and later as a mechanic and dispatcher. He was a member of Calais United Methodist Church, a life-member of the American Legion in Danforth where he was a member for over 60 years, served as a Boy Scout leader, and enjoyed hunting and fishing. Alvin will be remembered by many for always having a smile and willing to lend a hand to those in need.
In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by two sisters, Eureta Daggett and Frances Beal and husband, Paul; and brothers-in-law, Earl Seavey and Ralph Stewart and wife, Eleanor. Surviving are his loving wife of 59 years, Dorothy Daggett; two children, Kathy Craig of Calais, and David Daggett and wife, Lorraine, of Calais; three grandchildren, Joseph Craig and wife, Laura, of Calais, Brielle Walsh and husband, Will, of Dallas, and Robert Daggett of Dallas; two great-grandchildren, Landon Lewis, and Jordyn Craig; a stepgrandson, Steven Serrano of Morris, Ill.; and two stepgreat-grandchildren, Nicholas and Zachary Serrano.
Burial will be at Baring Cemetery. (Bangor Daily News 11/11/2013)
