Cynthia Chapin Krauss, 64, of Falmouth, Maine died Monday March 2, 2015. She was born on July 5, 1950 to Charles and Pauline Chapin. Cindy grew up in Bethel, Maine. She attended Gould Academy and went on to graduate from the University of Maine where she earned her BS in education.
She took great pride in her 35 year career as a kindergarten and first grade teacher, where she touched hundreds of young lives.
Her many interests included reading, knitting, horseback riding, trips to the beach, her dog, and above all spending time with her family.
She is survived by her loving husband of 42 years, Kenneth Krauss, her daughter Miranda Ducharme (Gregory) of Stratham, NH, her son Curtis Krauss (Sarah) of Bluffton, SC, her sister Nancy Brown (Dennis) of Falmouth, ME, and her sister MaryAnn Baker (Chris) of Collierville, TN, along with several nieces.
Unselfish to a fault, Cindy was loved by many for her caring personality and genuine kindness. Her bright smile will always be remembered. Her spirit lives on through her greatest love, her grandchildren Will, Kate and Tucker.
Family and close friends are invited to attend a celebration of her life Friday March 6th, 2015 from 2 to 4 PM at Jones, Rich and Hutchins Funeral Home 199 Woodford St. Portland Maine. On-Line condolences can be given to the family at www.jonesrichandhutchins.com.
