ObituaryApr 10, 2021  OBITUARY: While working in his sugarwoods, Dale P Nadeau passed away unexpectedly on April 5th, 2021. Dale was born on February 18th, 1946 to the late Paul and Rosa (Champigny) Nadeau. He married Clara Moore Nadeau on June 24th,1967 who survives him.

Dale was one of eight siblings who grew up on the family farm in Holland, Vt. He is survived by his three sisters Evelynn, Jane and Suzanne. Dale and Clara continued what is now a fourth generation family dairy farm. Together they raised five children who in some way have contributed to his legacy. Dale is survived by all of his children, Todd and his wife Carrie, Michelle and her fiance Patrick Fitzsimmons, Aaron and his wife Chantale, Ryan and his wife Amy and Renee and her husband Chet Baker. Along with these five children he was blessed with ten beautiful grandchildren: Clayton and Lane Nadeau, Ava and Gillian Wright, Owen, Madeleine and Emma Nadeau, Ryanne, Cora and Liam Nadeau. As a grandpa he was very involved with his grandchildren and proud of all their accomplishments. Although Dale had been farming as a child he and Clara purchased the farm in 1968. Dale was recognized in 1992 as the first recipient for Distinguished Farmer of the Month. “Dale’s philosophy concerning how he treated his animals had to do with why Mr. Nadeau was chosen as the first Orleans County Distinguished Farmer of the Month”- Barton Chronicle. In 1998 Dale received the Farm Family of the Year award through the Orleans County Farm Bureau.

Life after farming was full of quality time with Clara and spending time with his family. Dale and Clara enjoyed many summers travelling to horse pulls and county fairs throughout New England. The biggest enjoyment for Dale was getting together for the past eighteen years with his children and grandchildren at Lake Seymour for a week in July. In 2007 Dale decided to get into the maple syrup business, building his own sugarhouse. He and Clara created “Sweet Dreams Maple”. This was their fifteenth season.

Dale is predeceased by his mother and father, Paul and Rosa Nadeau along with his four siblings, Pauline, Elizabeth, Diane and Oscar.

The family would like to thank everyone for all their love and support during this trying time. There will be a Celebration of Life for Dale at a later date at the convenience of the family.

HOLLAND, Vt. (AP) — A 75-year-old Vermont man has died after he was pinned beneath the ATV he was operating in the town of Holland, state police said.

Troopers were called to the area of Gore Road in Holland at about 7:30 p.m. Monday after receiving a report of a fatal ATV accident.

The initial investigation revealed that the operator of the ATV, Dale Nadeau, was working in his sugarbush when he traveled through a steep area of uneven terrain where the ATV overturned, pinning Nadeau beneath it.

The investigation into the accident is ongoing. An autopsy is scheduled by the office of the Chief Medical Examiner to determine the cause of death.
