1933 – 2015
AUBURN — Romeo N. Bouchard Jr., 82, a resident of Middle Road, Sabattus, passed away peacefully Wednesday, Oct. 21, at the Hospice House after a long illness with his loving family by his side.
He was born in Lewiston on July 4, 1933, the son of Romeo and Simonne (Cloutier) Bouchard Sr.

He was employed over 40 years at the former Gould & Scammon, retiring in 1994. He was a member of Holy Family Church and the DAV.
Romeo loved his family and always encouraged family Sunday get-togethers, as sharing family time was a priority in the Bouchard household, all of whom were very important in his life.
His hobbies included hunting, fishing and playing bingo.
Survivors include his wife, Rena; one son, Lenny Bouchard and wife, Marianne; two daughters, Cathy and Lisa (Tremblay) Bouchard; two brothers, Maurice Bouchard and wife, Margaret, and Thomas Bouchard and wife, Sheila; and one half-sister, Lucille Gagnon; as well as four grandchildren, Rosalie, Courtney, Austin and Hunter.
