NORTH BATH — Dana L. Stimpson, 68, of Varney Mill Rd., North Bath died unexpectedly at his home on Nov 30, 2016. He was the son of Phyllis (Bailey) & Albert Stimpson Sr. Born Nov 18, 1948. He attended Brunswick schools, and joined the US Navy serving in Vietnam 1966- 1971. He held his service in the highest regard. He worked for Lane Construction, City of Bath Public Works Dept. and Winship Green before retiring.

He was very kind and generous man, love of family was top priority, and he was very proud of his children’s and grandchildren’s accomplishments. He was a 24 year member of Smith Tobey #21 American Legion, A Civil Warhistory buff, and a New England sports fan. He could make a mean pot of baked beans and biscuits to boot along with a spaghetti sauce that would knock your socks off. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and going to camp. He was always ready to give or get a good chuckle.

He is and will be dearly missed by his loved ones and friends.

He was predeceased by two brothers Larry Stimpson and his twin Daniel Stimpson

He is survived by his wife of 21 years Bonnie (Fraser) Stimpson, a son Dana S (currently serving in the US Navy) and his wife Courtney of Virginia, three daughters Denice and her husband Jay Manhardt of Bath, Vicki and her husband Roger Rice of Virginia, Veronica and husband John Reardon of North Carolina, step son Adam Fraser and his wife Patricia of Brunswick.
