8 at St. Francis Hospital & Medical Center in Hartford. Born in Milo, ME on June 23, 1941, a daughter of the late Ned L. and Cecilia (Poulin) Hoskins, she had been a resident of East Harford for many years. She especially enjoyed her time spent at Middlewoods Assisted Living of Newington where she blossomed during her four year residency prior to entering Riverside Health Care & Rehabilitation Center in East Hartford a year ago.
