Margaret Frost, 83

March 04, 2023

MARGARET H. P. FROST



Margaret Harrison Parsons “Marnie” Frost died at her Williamstown Massachusetts home on March 4, 2023 with her husband by her side.



Born in New York on April 16, 1939, Marnie graduated from The Brearley School and then Smith College in 1960. She then taught at St. Bernard’s school in New York until she married Peter Frost on June 18, 1965 and moved to Williamstown Massachusetts. There she was a much-loved teacher in the town’s public elementary school. When she and her husband retired and moved to Oxford Mississippi for fifteen years, she helped 3rd graders learn to read and was, with her friend, an enthusiastic quilter whose work was mostly donated to Habitat for Humanity. She also loved living in Japan and enjoying trips to China and other East and Southeast Asian nations.



Marnie is survived by her three sons and their families: Jonathan, Catherine and their two daughters; Michael, Leslie and their two sons, and Rufus, Susan, their daughter and two sons. A celebration of Marnie’s life will be arranged later. A memorial gift can be made to the Children’s Room at the North Haven Library, North Haven ME 04853 or to any charity of your choice.

Recollections & Sympathy For the Family

My daughter, Sacha, looked forward every morning to the math problem that would be waiting for the class on the chalk board. I will never forget Sacha's curiosity and enthusiasm, nor will I ever forget how magically 'Mrs. Frost' seamlessly encouraged and fostered her love of learning.

She and I taught 3rd grade for many years at the Williamstown Elementary School. She was an amazing teacher, a wonderful colleague and a good friend.

To Marnie’s husband and family, Please accept my condolences on the loss of your beloved Marnie. I taught with her for many years at Williamstown Elementary, where she was a most beloved educator and colleague. She always had so much patience with children, and I know she was dearly loved. May beautiful memories of her help you through this difficult time.
