d/o Edward Scott Colson and Lucy (Caldwell) Colson; w/o Harry L Albee

She was a graduate of Augusta Maine Schools (Cony High School).

Post-WWII events led Beatrice to Hartford, CT where she met and married the love of her life, Harry L Albee, October 23, 1948. Bea and Harry spent 12 years in Connecticut where they began raising their family. In 1960, the family made a courageous move to Rutland, Vermont where Harry and Bea started a business.

The Albee's were foster-parents to many children culminating in the adoption of their daughter. Six years later, they once again moved, this time to Manchester, NH where they continued in business. The couple retired in 1979 and later moved to the Daytona Beach, Florida area where they lived for over 35 years.

Bea volunteered in the Volusia County Schools for over 20 years, winning "Volunteer of the Year" one year.

Bea was preceded in death by her parents, 3 siblings and granddaughter, Jessica Berry. She is survived by her husband of 70+ years; children.

Burial at Blossom Hill Cemetery in Concord, NH. (Note: Burial held for Harry and Beatrice at NH Veterans Cemetery, on September 2, 2021.)
