1956-2017
NORRIDGEWOCK — Raylene F. (Dixon) Porter, 61, of Norridgewock, passed away peacefully on the morning of Monday, Aug. 14, 2017.
She was born May 25, 1956, in Waterville, the daughter of Lyndell and Charlene Dixon. She was a graduate of Lawrence High School in Fairfield and worked at the Best Western Hotel in Waterville.
Raylene was a loving and devoted mother to all her sons, who were her whole world. Not only did she have “her boys,” but many of their friends would say that she was also like a mother to them. She absolutely loved children and being a mom. From the homemade meals to the school projects and the sporting events, that was her calling in life and she was amazing at it. She would do anything for anybody — family, friends and even strangers — and there was always a smile on her face because she loved living life.
Among her favorite things to do was to go to Belfast Park with her family, going to the local fairs every year and playing bingo with her friends.
She is going to be greatly missed by many.
She leaves behind her sons, Travis Porter, his partner, Olivia Haynes, and grandson Dustin, of West Gardiner; Shawn Porter and grandson Raiden of Clinton; Justin Porter of Clinton; Lucas Porter of Norridgewock; Travis Belyea of Norridgewock; and Mark Porter of Las Cruces, N.M.. She also leaves her best friend, Laurie Wright, of Smithfield and her daughter Caitlin; friend Norman of Madison; ex-husband Carl Porter of Clinton; and two brothers.
She was predeceased by her parents, Lyndell and Charlene Dixon, as well as her partner of 12 years, Raymond Landry.
There will be a celebration of life at a date to be determined.
Arrangements under the direction and care of Dan & Scott’s Cremation & Funeral Service, 445 Waterville Road, Skowhegan.
