Robyn Elizabeth (Roggio-Davis) Hesseltine, of Waldoboro, lost her long and difficult battle with ovarian cancer Feb. 22. She was a loving daughter, sister, mother, and dear friend.

Robyn attended Booth Memorial High School in St. John’s, NL, Canada and lived in Maine since 1982.

She worked at Dave’s Family Restaurant as assistant gift shop manager and later at Brooks Trap Mill as a store associate.
Robyn loved breeding, training and showing Dobermans and Yorkshire Terriers and was also a great horsewoman. She was an avid Harley Davidson motorcyclist and scrap booker. She was a devoted member at Wilderness Church in Waldoboro, and served as a junior church worker and camp counselor.
