BERWICK, Maine — Funeral arrangements for Amy Harris, the Hussey School special eduction teacher killed in an April 10 car accident, will be held next week.

Family and friends will celebrate her life on Monday, April 22, from 2 to 6 p.m. at Our Lady of Angels Church in South Berwick. Her funeral service will be held at the church at 11 a.m. Tuesday, with burial to follow at the family cemetery on New Dam Road in Berwick.

The Harris family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations can be made out to the Abbie and Lucas Fund at Kennebunk Savings Bank or sent to Salmon Falls Nursery & Landscaping, 511 Portland St., Berwick, Maine 03901.

Harris, 34, a special-education teacher at the Vivian E. Hussey School in Berwick, was pronounced dead after a vehicle operated by a 17-year old Berwick Academy student crossed the center line of Route 4 and collided with her vehicle head on shortly after 8 a.m. on Wednesday, April 10.

Berwick police have not released the name of the teen driver, but they are working to try to uncover what happened at the time of the crash.

Harris was traveling with her two children, Abbie, 4, and Luke, 7, at the time of the collision. Abbie suffered lacerations and was released from a hospital on the day of the accident, but her brother had to be transported to Massachusetts General Hospital, where he underwent surgery for a broken vertebra and torn intestine, according to the Portland Press Herald.

According to the Portland Press Herald, Deputy Attorney General William Stokes said his office was asked by York County District Attorney Kathryn Slattery to oversee the investigation because the driver of the vehicle who survived the crash is related to her family.

Stokes told the newspaper he is not allowed to identify the 17-year-old driver because he is a juvenile and has not been charged with any crimes, but he is fairly certain the teenager is not Slattery's son. Stokes said he was not aware of their exact relationship and it is not unusual for a public official to take over a case like this to avoid any conflicts of interest.

Harris was a lifelong local resident and the community has been greatly affected by the loss.

“We are trying to find coverage on Tuesday so teachers that have worked with her can go pay their respects. It's a time for community,” Connolly on Friday.

Harris graduated in 1997 from Noble High School, where her stepfather Jon Appleby still works. Her father, Mark Pendergast, owns Salmon Falls Landscape in Berwick, and her mother, Christine, owns Salmon Falls Nursery in Berwick.

According to a Facebook Page, “Angels for Amy Harris,” a silent auction, will be held Friday, May 17, from 6 to 10 p.m., at the Spring Hill in South Berwick. All proceeds from the auction will go to support the Harris family.
