On Friday, May 15, 2020, our loving uncle Douglas J. Poire of Manchester, passed away at the age of 75, at Elliot Hospital.
Douglas had a heart of gold, and an infectious smile that would light up the room. Everyone whose life was intertwined with Douglas, regardless of how briefly, felt blessed with being a part of his life. Douglas was truly a pure and beautiful soul who was loved, and will be mourned by all.
Born in Laconia on July 10, 1944, the son of Ronald and Muriel (Skilling) Poire, Douglas had been a Manchester resident for most of his life. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by two brothers, Dennis Poire and Ronald Poire.
Family members include: two sisters-in-law, Linda Poire of Hooksett and Rachel Hogan of Goffstown; a nephew, Matthew Poire of Bedford; a niece, Tracy Regnier and her husband Shawn of California. Childhood friends and caregivers Jody & Tom O'Reily were also an integral part of Douglas' life.
