Meet the Staff
Kristen Wortman
Executive Director
Years of Service: 5
After spending my childhood growing up in Greenville, I attended the University of Maine, where I received my master's degree in social work with a concentration in gerontology. With a passion for assisting that population, I have worked as Executive Director of My Friend's Place, an adult day center in Bangor, securing funding, developing programming, and supporting volunteers. Prior to Pine Tree Hospice, I had spent the last seven years at Hibbard Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Dover-Foxcroft, working with many of the same partners as Pine Tree Hospice, including local hospitals, medical hospices, and many other community partners.
Working at Pine Tree Hospice is an honor. This organization provides such a vital resource to this area, providing barrier-free services to those in great need.
Some of my favorite pastimes include boating on Moosehead Lake, going "up to camp" in the North Maine Woods, and ice fishing with my husband and chocolate Labrador, Ridge.
Tracey Gray
Client and Family Services Coordinator
Years of Service: Started in August!
My name is Tracey Gray. I reside in Milo with my husband of 35 years, Everett.
We have an adult son, Chris, and his wife Morgan, a 9-year-old grandson, Cayden and a 12-year-old grandson, Brody. Our grandsons are active in sports, soccer, football, ice hockey, and baseball. We try not to miss any games.
I love to cook, bargain shop, and am new to gardening. We ATV ride, fish, and anything else Brody and Cayden talk us into. My passion is helping others and family time. I am so excited to start my last first day of a new job!”
Pamela Pultz
Office Coordinator
Years of Service: 7
I came to Pine Tree Hospice after owning a business for 14 years. After spending some time at home, I wanted to do something that would benefit the community and give my life meaning. I was trained as a lawyer, and that is a great match for what I do at Pine Tree Hospice: write and work on marketing plans. I enjoy wordsmithing; so my job is perfect in so many ways!
My interests are primarily working in my stained-glass shop at my house, creating all sorts of bright and colorful windows and other glass objects. I have also trained and shown dogs in obedience and other sports as well as Conformation, and in 2022, I went to Westminster with my Parson Russell Terrier, where we won Select Dog in our breed. He is my trick and obedience dog, and we spend hours and hours together every day.
