Obituary of Nancy V. Bodine

South China and Hyde Island – Nancy V. Bodine, 67, passed away unexpectedly August 30, 2024, at her camp on Hyde Island on Moosehead Lake. She was born August 4, 1957, in Greenville, the daughter of Clementine R. (Munster) and Joseph Henry Gilbert Sr. Nancy loved her Camp (Lucky Bummer) on Moosehead Lake, from her hummingbirds to her gatherings on the Back beach, sitting around bonfires with friends and family while looking at the stars, and listening to Delbert McClinton. BLP themed parties, raking leaves, champagne cruises at sunset, and her famous barbecue chicken sauce with bean hole baked beans are just a few of the many things she was known and loved for. She celebrated everything she cared for or about and was a constant loving force to all who loved her. Nancy was a 1979 graduate of Thomas College in Waterville, ME, with a BS in Accounting and Mathematics. Later she was a 1983 graduate with a Masters of Business Administration from Thomas as well. She held many varied managerial positions in both private and government sectors during her career. Her final position and the one she was most proud of was her work with the State of Maine as Fiscal Administrator of the Unorganized Territories at the Office of State Auditor. This was a position that allowed her to serve the people in these remote rugged areas like where she grew up. Nancy is survived by her loving husband of 45 years, Matthew Bodine; son, Madison Bodine; four brothers, Henry, Mark, Darryl, and Darren Gilbert; four sisters, Vanessa Folsom, Lori-Anna Douglass, Clarissa Howard, and Anna-Maria Herrick; and several brothers and sisters in-law, nieces, and nephews, whom she loved endlessly. She will be missed by her longtime high school friends and her beloved Thomas College crew. She was predeceased by her parents. A celebration of Nancy’s life will be announced at a later date. Arrangements are in the care of the Lary Funeral Home. Messages of condolence and memories may be expressed at www.laryfuneralhome.com.
