Funeral For Specialty Sweets Owner Planned For This Weekend

Last month, we brought you the sad news that Bangor mom of four, and local business owner Eliza Butler passed away, on New Year's Day, after a courageous battle with Cancer. Butler owned Specialty Sweets in Bangor for several years before closing the shop to dedicate time to her family.

According to the Specialty Sweets Facebook Page, funeral arrangements have been made, and the public is welcome to join in celebrating the life of this special lady this coming weekend, either in person or online. The date has been set for Saturday, February 11 at 11 a.m.

"Her funeral will take place at the Anah Shriners building on outer Broadway in Bangor. We know that Eliza impacted SO many lives, so we have chosen a location that will hold all who want to come and remember her. We will also be live-streaming the entire ceremony for family and friends who are unable to attend."

According to a close family friend, Lisa Liberatore, Butler's husband has been doing an amazing job getting the couple's four children into a new routine, as the community has really stepped up and surrounded them with such love and support.
