Bertin Boutot, at 86 years old, of Manchester NH, passed away suddenly on August 5th, 2020 with his loving wife by his side. Born on March 26, 1934 to Johnny & Rosa (Pelletier) Boutot in New Brunswick, Canada, Bertin would go on to marry his best friend and love of his life, Edmee, with whom he raised a family of 7 children in New Hampshire.

In 1971 Bertin and his wife Edmee started B&B Drywall. Bertin was incredibly proud to have his four sons work along side him for many years. Bert took tremendous pride in his work and always loved teaching his trade to his sons. His legacy continues as his son Alain purchased B&B Drywall from Bert & Edmee in 1983. Bertin was very proud of this.

Bertin will be remembered as a hardworking, loyal and loving father. A natural handyman, Bertin was known for being able to fix anything and he especially loved fixing up classic cars and motorcycles. Memories of Bertin & Edmee driving his first 55 Chevy convertible will be forever cherished, Bertin even raced cars in his younger days.
