Ernestine “Tina” M. Moison, 98, of Bath, formerly of Woolwich, died peacefully Saturday, Sept. 17, 2016 at the Bodwell House in Brunswick with her family by her side.

Tina was born in Bath on October 10, 1917, a daughter of Clarence A. and Mary O. (Kaler) Pendleton.

In 1947 she married Clifford Moison and they made their home in Woolwich until his passing in 1990. During World War II, Tina was employed at Bath Iron Works and later in years at Standard Romper in Brunswick.

For many years, Tina was a ballot clerk in Woolwich, and a 50-year member of the Woolwich Grange, where she was involved with many bean Suppers. She was an active member of the Wiscasset American Legion Auxiliary serving on the Scholarship Committee, the Woolwich Historical Society and the Nequasset Auxiliary.

She and Cliff were active “Good Sam Club” members and traveled throughout Canada, New England and the East Coast of Florida. Tina was an avid knitter, knitting hundreds of mittens that she gave to her teacher daughter-in-law, Nancy, to give to her students. They wore their mittens so proudly. She was extremely proud of the fact that she was a “five generation grandmother five times over.”

Tina was predeceased by her parents, her husband Cliff Moison, her sister Hazel Charrier and her husband Arthur Charrier, her brother, Clarence Pendleton Jr. and his wife Beverly Pendleton, a stepdaughter, Sandra Hodgins, and a son-in-law, Richard Renshaw.

She is survived by two daughters, Mary Renshaw of Rutland, Massachusetts and Janice Hanson and her husband Gerald of Wiscasset; one son, Ernest E. Lebel and his wife Nancy of Gulfport, Florida; many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

A graveside service will be held at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at Oak Grove Cemetery in Bath. Entrance to the cemetery is on the East side of Oak Grove Avenue. A gathering of family and friends will follow at The Plant Memorial Home activities room, 1 Washington Street, Bath.

Arrangements are by Daigle Funeral Home, 819 High Street, Bath. Condolences may be made online at www.DaigleFuneralHome.com.

The family would like to thank the Plant Home where she has resided for the past six years for their special care and also Mid Coast Hospital and the Bodwell House for all that they did for making her final journey a pleasant one.
