Maxwell L. Emerson

Jonesport

Maxwell L. Emerson, 84, went to be with the Love of his life Glennis Emerson on March 19, 2020 at his home surrounded by his loving family. He was born June 4, 1935 in Jonesport to the late Lawrence and Rachael (Faulkingham) Emerson.
He was a hard worker, even though being disabled, making a living as a lobster fisherman, clam digger, and what ever it took to provide for his family. Even though he didn't consider it work, he loved being on the water, summers spent on Crowley Island, and especially all the times he shared with Glennis and their family.
He is survived by his daughter Sandra Emerson; his son Gregory Emerson and wife Janice ; grandchildren – Jessica Peabody and partner Brad Jellison, Brent Davis , Crystal Davis and partner Alvin Beal; great-grandchildren Maxwell “Little Max” Matthews, Brooke and Nathaniel (Davis) Carver, and Alvin Beal Jr. ; a brother Larry Emerson ; sisters – Lucille Albee , Carla Merritt, and Darlene Carver; sisters-in-law Jackie Emerson and Betty Peabody and her husband Maxwell”Mackie” ; many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
He was predeceased by his wife of 53 years Glennis (Norton) Emerson on Nov. 3, 2014, and who he longed to be reunited with since that date. In addition to Glennis, and his parents he was predeceased by four brothers- Ernest, George, Sherman , and Robert , a sister Delanie Beal;and brother-in law Nathan “Buzz” Norton and wife Ann .
Due to Covid19 restrictions there will be no viewing hours, or funeral services at this time. A graveside service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to remember Maxwell may drop off donations of cat food, and pet supplies for his many adopted stray cats at his home 28 Sadler Point Road in Jonesport.
