Obituary
Dan Lavoie, a gentle gracious man with a warm sincere smile, he made everyone laugh out loudly on all occasions as he told us about his life, which I might add, he could recall with great ease and clarity.
Daniel Gene Joseph Lavoie—Danny
Was born in Nashua New Hampshire on March 03, 1923 and so began the life of the man that people today are proud to call their father, their father in law, their grandfather, their great grandfather and also their friend.
Danny was a well read articulate man, as many people have commented, he was an interesting man to listen and talk to, someone who could understand and appreciate your personal point of view.
Danny liked to read, indeed it was a favorite pastime for him of which he read many books and newspapers from which he gained much pleasure.
Danny was always a happy contented man he never wanted much out of life, just simple quiet pleasures, sharing his life with his beloved Gladys and his children and grandchildren.
Danny was a very sociable person he had many friends, he was well liked and respected, he was someone you could trust and rely on, someone you could confide in and ask for advice.
Someone we have all had the great privilege of knowing.
‘We must die we know’ said a character in Shakespeare ’tis but the time and drawing days out that men stand upon.’
Danny died in the early evening of November 20th 2014 at 6:28 pm, I know he will be greatly missed by everyone who knew and loved him.
Danny is survived by his wife, Gladys Julia Lavoie; children, Daniel Joseph (Kathryn) Lavoie, Julie Ann (David) Zoch, Albert Danny (Patricia) Lavoie, Charles Leslie (Elizabeth) Lavoie, Gary John (Maria De Luna) Lavoie, Donna Jeanne (Larry Alexander) Hodges, Gregory Stephen (Diane) Lavoie and Kevin Gene (Michelle) Lavoie; grandchildren, Trevor Lavoie, Russell Lavoie, Chuck Lavoie, Jr., Candace Lavoie, Gary Lavoie, Adam Lavoie, Bobby Hodges, Jr., Danny Hodges, Evan Lavoie, Brandon Lavoie, Shelby Koska, Shana Jordan, Kevin Lavoie, Steven Lavoie, Kenny Lavoie, Danielle Teel, Brandy Brenner, Madison Gonzalez, Samantha Lavoie, Zachary Lavoie, Allyssa Lavoie and Jaclynn Lavoie; and 20 great-grandchildren.

Something made me think of the Lavoie family today and I google them. Tho’ it’s been 3 years now since Mr Lavoie’s passing (I grew up next door the Lavoie family and was taught to respect my elders! 🙂 I send my condolences to his giant family. My memories growing up are filled with him and his boys, tinkering with cars in the driveway, playing with Julie and the laughs shared between my parents and the Lavoie’s as they watched their families grow. Wishing all much peace and hearts filled with wonderful memories for such an incredible dad, granddad and more.
