Rhoda Ackerson Weyr, a long-time Boothbay resident and community activist, died on Sunday, April 25, 2021 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. She was 83 and had developed complications after a fall.
She was born Rhoda Anne Ackerson in 1937 in Budapest, Hungary, where her father was a U.S. diplomat. Weyr’s roots in Maine extended back to her maternal grandfather, who bought a large part of Monhegan Island where he was stationed during the Spanish American War. Weyr inherited the land and donated most of it to the Monhegan Land Trust where there is now a plaque on Blackhead commemorating her aunt.
