Betty Bickford, 72, of Wiscasset, passed away surrounded by her family on Sunday morning, December 30, 2018 after a courageous battle with cancer.

She was born on April 21, 1946, a daughter of the late Seth and Geraldine (Robertson) Hanley. She grew up in Rockland and was a graduate of Rockland High School class of 1964. She spent her childhood summers on Vinalhaven and it continued to be a very special place for the rest of her life. She enjoyed reading and listening to Willie Nelson music.
