Ann Zora (St. Martin) Stout<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

March 5, 1958 ~ December 3, 2025<\/span><\/p>\n

Ann Zora St. Martin Stout, born in Newport, NH, on March 5, 1958, was called home to God at her home in Newport on December 3, 2025. Ann was the daughter of Zora and Alfred St. Martin, and lived nearly all her life in Newport. She was married to her high school sweetheart Gregory for over 49 years.<\/p>\n

Ann\u2019s journey on earth was marked by motherhood to more than just her own seven children and six grandchildren. She was an active member of St. Patrick\u2019s Catholic Church, where she received all of her sacraments, including baptism, reconciliation, first communion, confirmation, anointing of the sick and matrimony. She married Greg on October 23, 1976.<\/p>\n

Her ongoing participation in education and the church led to her co-founding Mount Royal Academy in 1993 and homeschooling her children for over 15 years. She admired art, literature, culture and nature, which could be seen through her years of involvement in the Newport Historical Society, the Library Arts Center and the Amalgamated Printing Association. She was crowned Newport\u2019s Winter Carnival Queen in 1975 after reciting original poetry for the talent portion.<\/p>\n

In recent years, Ann wrote a weekly column in the Intertown Record as well as regular articles for the Newport Times and Soonipi Magazine. She was a writer for over 40 years, contributing to the Argus Champion and Eagle Times, and self-publishing two books \u2014 an alphabet book about the town of Newport and another about the history of stained-glass windows in St. Patrick\u2019s Church.<\/p>\n

Ann\u2019s Greek heritage played a large part in the traditions, holidays and food that she shared with family. She left the door to her home open to anyone in need and is known by many for her warm hospitality and homemade bread. Her unwavering faith in God and His teachings allowed her to serve innumerable friends and strangers with grace and kindness. Her legacy will be carried forward by those who were touched by her compassion, generous heart and thoughtful mind.<\/p>\n

Ann was preceded in death by her parents Zora and Alfred St. Martin, and brothers Michael and Thomas. She is survived by her loving husband Greg; sister Lisa Cook (Clint); brother Andy St. Martin; children Maria, Jeremy (Jacqueline), Jacob (Keri), Rachel, Monica (Edward), Dominic and Julia; and grandchildren Dylan, Caleb, Hayden, Bryce, Leah and Micah. She also leaves behind numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.<\/p>\n

The family will receive friends at calling hours on Thursday, December 11, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Newton-Bartlett Funeral Home. A funeral Mass will take place at St. Patrick\u2019s Church on Friday, December 12, at 11 a.m. with a burial at St. Patrick\u2019s Cemetery and reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Ann\u2019s memory to the Newport Library Arts Center<\/a> and the Pregnancy Center of the Upper Valley<\/a>.<\/p>\n
