In Memoriam
Annie W. Bantham
WILTON—Annie Welsh Bantham, a native of Cooperstown who most recently made her home in the Town of Wilton, passed away early Tuesday morning, October 3, 2023, at Saratoga Hospital in Saratoga Springs. She was 90.
Annie was a cherished wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, friend and neighbor. As a voracious reader, she spent most of her free time with a good book. She recently set a personal goal to read 100 books in the year, which she very nearly accomplished. She was also an avid bird-watcher, constantly observing and learning about the birds she encountered in her daily life. Annie was a kind and thoughtful person, and never had an unfriendly word to say about anyone. She loved her family and friends, and filled her home with warmth and kindness. She will be sorely missed.
