    Marion E. Addition
    1916 – 2017

    LEEDS – Marion E. Additon, 100, a long time resident of Leeds, passed away peacefully at her home Monday, March 20. Her family remembers her as a generous, selfless, hardworking, loving mother, grandmother and friend. She was born September 22, 1916, the daughter of Alton Hodgkins and Velma (Moore) Hodgkins.

    Marion attended primary school in Greene, graduating in 1939 from Leavitt Institute in Turner. This is where she met the love of her life, Elden F. Additon. They married October 18, 1941, and had a wonderful life together for 44 years; he passed away in 1985.

    She enjoyed being on the farm, raising her family and helping with the farm work; getting in hay, feeding calves and gardening. During the fall months, you would see her behind the wheel of the farm truck while her husband was chopping corn. For many years she drove school bus, carrying students to Leeds and Turner. She was a member of the Leeds Community Church, where she sang in the choir.

    In 2011, she was the recipient of the Leeds Boston Post Cane. Marion was passionate for the Red Sox and was a loyal fan.

    She is survived by three sons — Errol “Abe” Additon and wife Kathleen of Leeds, Keith Additon and wife Kay of Cooperstown, NY, Ellis Additon and husband Bruce Shaw of Scarborough, daughter-in-law Jan Additon of Venice, FL., eight grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, seven great-great-grandchildren and a special niece and nephew — Lois Hale and Barry Mower of Manchester.

    She was preceded by her parents, husband Elden Additon, son Kenneth E. Additon, and brothers Robert and Clayton Hodgkins. The family would like to thank the care givers — Wanda, Elaine and Becky — for their assistance and dedication.

    Services were held Friday, March 24, at Bragdon-Finley Funeral Home in Monmouth. Interment will be later at Leeds Center Cemetery, Route 106.
