Always putting others before herself, she was the first one to rescue an animal or open her home to those in need. Her love of teaching continued with her grandchildren, favorite times were spent reading and playing with them. Besides her loving husband of thirty-nine years, and her parents, she is survived by her children, Nathan Currier and his wife Charissa of Manomet, and Lt. Kendra Currier-Smith, USNR and her husband George J. Smith III of Weymouth. She was the mother of the late Ian Currier. She was the “Nana” of Caleb, Braden and Sloane.
