| Obituary | Apr 29, 2006 | OBITUARY: ST. ALBANS - Mr. George E. Rocheleau, age 87, died Monday, April 24, 2006, at his home after a lengthy illness. He was born March 21, 1919, in St. Albans, son of the late Onile "Louis" and Adeline (Nichols) Rocheleau. He married Harriet Mulheron, Feb. 16, 1941. Mrs. Rocheleau pre deceased him in 2002. George worked for the Central Vermont Railway for 38 years retiring in 1979 as a conductor. He was a member of the Loyal Order of Moose Lodge 1090, the Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary unit 758. He will be best remembered for his French Fry Wagon he operated on Kingman Street and the concession stand at the ball parks. He loved working with his construction business, socializing with his community, and playing games with the family friends. He loved cards, croquet, shuffleboard and pool. He was always anxious for anyone to come over so he could tease them when he won. Dad had a vast knowledge about a variety of things and was always there to help out with his children's questions...right or wrong. He will be missed by all and especially by the morning coffee crew. It was always so comforting to gather around the kitchen table with the "Don" of the family. George's family would like to extend their sincere thanks to Dr. Christian Thomas and his staff, and Franklin County Home Health, for their care and support. He is survived by his children and their spouses: John and Anna Rocheleau of Swanton, Linda and Hank Gadouas of St. Albans, Steven and Janice Rocheleau of Fairfax, Thomas and Linda Rocheleau of St. Albans; 13 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren; a brother, Ernest Rocheleau and his wife, Trudy of St. Albans; sisters: Corita Cadieux and her husband, Roger of Georgia, Corrine Rocheleau and Rita Sweeney and her husband, Wayne, all of St. Albans. Besides his wife Harriet, he was predeceased by his parents; sisters, Hortense Levesque, Cecile Deslauriers, and Yvonne Vock; and brothers, Omer and Alfred Rocheleau. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Saturday, April 29, 2006, at 10 a.m. in Holy Angels Catholic Church. There will be no visiting hours. Interment will be in the Rocheleau family lot in Mount Calvary Cemetery. Memorials may be to the Franklin County Home Health Agency, 3 Home Health Circle, St. Albans, Vt. 05478. An online condolence book has been established for his family at the Brady & Levesque Web site: www.bnlfh.com.
