KENNEBUNK – Zelma “Faye” Bell, age 69, passed away on November 12, 2022, after a courageous battle with Lewy Body Dementia.
She was born in Chatfield, Ohio on November 11, 1953, a daughter of the late Cecil & Starling (Betty) (Harris) Colegrove.
She lived an adventurous life. From living in a school bus with her 2 daughters on the beaches of California, to traveling with a carnival, hitting the casinos of Nevada, and finding herself in the mountains of Colorado. Free spirit was in her soul and lead her to meet her soul mate. She worked hard to provide for her family, working 1, 2, and at times 3 jobs at a time. Somehow she managed to fit it some crocheting, or any other crafty thing you'd throw her way. You would see her biggest smile when she was with family. Whether it be her daughters in Maine, or her family in Ohio, Her smile was never bigger.
