WASHBURN NEWS

Resident honored
Several of Ardis Humphrey’s friends were invited to attend a luncheon at the Fraser Mansion in Madawaska on Thursday, Aug. 13, 2015. This was an event hosted by Ardis’ cousins Paula Plissey and Joyce Meagher, to honor and celebrated Ardis, a most generous, giving and caring friend.
Ardis has devoted her adult life to generously helping others. She has baked and delivered countless birthday and wedding cakes all over Aroostook County and beyond.
She has been totally devoted to her children and grandchildren and is known all over The County for her expertise in photography. Ardis does not accept any recognition for her generosity. She is a friend to all and loved by everyone.
