CHEBEAGUE ISLAND -- Winthrop (Wink) Palmer Houghton Jr., 53, of Chebeague Island, died at home after a long illness.
Wink was born on Sept. 17, 1958, in Concord, N.H., and grew up in Biddeford.
He graduated from Biddeford High School in 1976. He studied Environmental Studies at the University of Maine in Orono. He received a degree from SMVTI in Building Trades in 1980. He also went through the NOLS, National Outdoors Leadership School low impact ice climbing in the Cascades. He was self-employed as a carpenter in Shapleigh, and Chebeague Island. For the past sixteen years has been a lobsterman on Chebeague.
Wink is survived by his wife Patricia; his daughter Danielle Rideout, her husband Shawn, and his granddaughter Alexandria; his son, David Rich; his parents, Ruth and Winthrop Houghton Sr; his brother, Theodore Houghton and a niece, Rebecca Pellerin, her husband Pete, and their daughter Juliette; and several cousins, aunts and uncles. He is also survived by his adoptive family, Chris, Frankie, Justin and Zach Doughty.
Wink loved fishing, lobstering, carpentry, music and nature. He loved to chat and had a whimsical sense of humor. He was kind and generous and always there to give a helping hand. He loved blue grass music and the Grateful Dead.
The family wishes to extend heartfelt thanks to the Chebeague Community for all their love, compassion and support.
A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday, Sept. 15, at the Chebeague United Methodist Church, at 1 p.m.
