Obituary for William "Bill" Belanger Sr.
JAY- William A. Belanger, Sr. was born on December 25, 1960, to Frank Gilbert & Doris Belanger lost his battle with cancer on Tuesday, May 2nd.
Bill was raised by his grandmother, Alice Belanger in Chesterville, always fond memories of helping out at the Turner farm as a child. Bill graduated from Jay High School then went to work at G.H.Bass for a few years before moving to the Tannery in E. Wilton. Bill had tried many trades throughout his years from the shoe factory, tanner, logger, sawmill worker, auto mechanic, equipment operator and a plow truck driver for the Department of Transportation before retiring.
Bill was a world of knowledge and will be truly missed by all who knew him. He was a jack of all trades!
Bill’s passion was working on small engines – If anyone had a snowblower or a lawnmower that needed fixing they would bring it to Bill. He would have it running in a day or two. He will be truly missed by all who knew him.
Bill leaves behind his wife, Brenda; 2 children, a son , Billy and his partner, Kris; and a daughter, Amanda; close brother in-law David Coolidge (with whom he had a lot of fun) and his partner Kim; (who was Bill’s favorite chef), special mother in-law Ellen Coolidge, (who was like a mother to him)and her partner Russell; brother in-law Rusty and his wife, Nora; close neighbor, Chris Turner (Bill thought of as a son) and of course Clyde (Chris’ dog). He also leaves behind his 3 grandkitties, Izzy Lou, Milo and the latest rascal, AKA Poopydoop, AKA Monsterman who will miss their Gampa.
Rest in Peace until we meet again, you will always be loved and sadly missed. Keep looking down on us to make sure we are doing alright.
