Obituary of Thomas L. Carbone
Please share a memory of Thomas to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
THOMAS L. CARBONE, 75, the eldest son of the late Louis A. and Josephine R. Carbone died peacefully surrounded by his family and friends at his home in Boothbay Harbor on Wednesday September 14, 2011. Being a graduate of NYI (The New York Institute of Photography), the majority of his career was spent running his photography business, Tom’s Photo in Boothbay Harbor and working for the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife in the Augusta office. Tom was a man of many talents and also attained his master burner and solid fuel license while working for Shibley’s Oil in Skowhegan. As his friends will tell you if it was mechanical, electrical or carpentry, Tom could do it and he had the tools to prove it. While working for the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, he attended and coordinated many exhibits promoting Maine’s fishing and wildlife industry. His favorite show was the Big E (Eastern States Exposition)in West Springfield, MA every September. Having done this show for more than 30 years, he was selected to be a trustee of the Maine Building, a post that he held until his death. The Town of Boothbay Harbor and Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church always held a special place in Tom’s heart, being on many boards and a Selectman for many years. He was also a member of the Madison-Skowhegan Elks Lodge #2531 as well as having served in the Maine State National Guard. After retiring from Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, Tom and his wife Debbie started Deb’s Lawn Care, which he ran until his death.
Tom is survived by his wife Deborah Carbone and predeceased by his first wife Joyce S. Carbone. He is also survived by his three children, Michelle Dumont, her husband Anthony and their son Ryan of Augusta, Maine; his sons Christopher Carbone of Portland, Maine and David Carbone and his fiancé Liza and their child Teagan of Skowhegan, Maine; his younger brother Henry Carbone and his wife Nancy of Fort Kent, ME and their sons Hank and John and their families; as well as Kevin and Kimberlee Connery and their children Christina and Kaitlyn; Celeste Bishop of Feeding Hills, MA and Fran Wilson of Boothbay Harbor, ME.
A funeral mass will be held on Saturday, September 24, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. at Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church on Atlantic Avenue in Boothbay Harbor with a reception to follow in the church hall. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions can be made to Tom Carbone’s grandchildren’s college fund, c/o Deborah Carbone, PO Box 495, Boothbay Harbor, ME. On-line condolences may be offered to the family at www.directcremationofmaine.com.
