Winthrop Colton Bartlett
August 12, 1925 ~ March 21, 2016
Winthrop Colton Bartlett (Bud) of Deering, NH, died on March 21, 2016, after a short illness. His wife, Jeanne Titcomb Bartlett; his daughters, Jane Millon, Susan Bartlett, Holly Weinberg, Abigail Bartlett; and his son, William Bartlett, had the great privilege of caring for Bud at his own home with help and compassionate guidance from the Concord Regional Visiting Nurses Hospice services. His twelve grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, many nieces and nephews, friends, and neighbors had an opportunity to visit him and hear the stories he had to tell about the adventures of his long life.
Bud was born in Lowell, MA., on Aug.12, 1925. His four siblings, the late Ruth Herman, Neil Bartlett, David Bartlett and Eleanor Huang, remember their big brother's interest in being on the water, rowing up the mighty Merrimack river in a patched up Amesbury skiff, playing hockey on its ice and joining the swim team at Lowell schools where he also played trombone in its marching band. He joined the Navy, of course, but found himself in the air as flight engineer for the Naval Air Force during WWII. He was a graduate of Wentworth Institute of Technology, class of 1949.
He lived and worked in Lowell before moving with his growing family to Deering in 1962. He was one of the early founders of North Branch Builders, Inc. He later became self-employed and a fine builder/renovator of many houses, barns and structures throughout NH.
Bud found time to sail the chartered waters from Penobscot Bay, to Florida and the Bahamas, often with family as crew. He was a patient teacher on the sea as well as on land and at home with his kids and wife, the place he loved to be above all. His children, as apprentices, remember him as the fixer-of-all-things and through his influence became self-reliant adults. Bud and Jeanne celebrated their 65th
wedding anniversary last year, reveling in their fine fortune: good health and a loving family.
A memorial is being planned for early summer, at the Deering Community Church where Bud was a member.
