Maureen McCabe

1933 - January 6, 2024

Maureen Rose McCabe (nee Terry), 89, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on January 6, 2024, at her home in Port Angeles, Washington. Maureen was born in England, where she grew up with three siblings in a small town outside of London. She was a survivor of "The Blitz" when Germany bombed London in World War II.
Maureen traveled from England to Port Angeles in August of 1956 to be with the love of her life, Julian. They met at a dance hall in Chelveston, England while Julian was stationed there during his Army service. After they married, they raised a daughter, Terri, and son, Steve.
She volunteered countless hours as a bookkeeper at several local shops and loved acting in plays with the Port Angeles Community Players. Maureen was a talented knitter and crocheter and donated many of her knitted creations to the community at large. Maureen won awards for throwing darts, spent hours in her backyard garden, and loved making cookies and "goodies" for her family. She enjoyed sipping a cup of tea while filling out the newspaper's crossword puzzle and watching hummingbirds come to her feeders. She was an avid traveler with her husband, touring around the U.S. in their RV, and spent every February on the island of Maui for nearly 30 years.
Maureen is survived by her husband, Julian, her grandchildren: Chelsea, Dayne, Jaycie, Lainey, Chloe, & Blake, her great-grandchildren: Jordan & Emmy, her sister June, and brother John. She was preceded in death by her son, daughter, and sister Molly.
A celebration of life will be held at the Port Angeles Senior Center on Saturday, February 17th from 3pm to 5pm.
