Marie (Ouellette) Matseas, resident of Rockingham Rehabilitation, Brentwood, NH and former longtime resident of Windham, NH died peacefully on April 28, 2024 at the age of 93 after a long battle with dementia.

Marie was born in Lawrence, MA. She, along with her sister Marguerite (Ouellette) Kralovic were raised by the sisters at St. Anne Orphanage in Methuen, MA.

Marie had a joyful heart, full of compassion and generosity. She was always helping others, and had a kind word for everyone she knew. She was very creative, and you could often find Marie on her sewing machine, or creating a beautiful quilt. Her door was always open for friends to stop by for a cup of coffee and conversation. She loved cooking Pita at holidays or her pineapple upside down cake. Rooted in her faith, Marie extended grace and kindness to all who crossed her path, always making friends wherever she went.
