Sebago- Eva H. Hansen, 98, of Sebago, passed away with her family by her side, in Portland, on April 5, 2017. She was born in Tilsit Germany, on December 13, 1918, the daughter of August, and Minna (Hartung) Arndt. She was educated in German schools, and came to America at the age of 18, in 1938 as a governess. She worked as a governess until a German friend invited her to visit a German/Danish family that had many children. One of the sons, Franz, was sitting on the front steps of the house when they arrived and he caught Eva's eye. The two were married in 1945, and they built a house in Westbrook to raise their daughter. In 1972 the family moved to Sebago Lake, "God's Country". Eva was an active member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Westbrook. She was also very involved as a Brownie Girl Scout Leader, and was in charge of cookies sales one year. She embraced this job with all her energy and turned her dining room into a warehouse with wall to wall boxes of cookies. She was a member of the Westbrook Garden Club, and was known for her community service. She was predeceased by her husband Franz M. Hansen, of 41 years, in 1986. She is survived by her daughter Krista Wiedmann, of Standish, her sister-in-law Doris Hansen, of Windham, and nieces and nephews in both Germany and America. Eva's family would like to thank the Barron Center in Portland, for their kindness and great care of Eva and her family.
