Marian Eileen Boudreault

Marian Eileen (Connor) Boudreault, 66, passed away on March 3, 2020, in Brattleboro, Vermont. She was born on February 10, 1954, in Roxbury, MA the daughter of Edmund G. and Marjorie Connor.

Marian was married to Patrick Romeo Boudreault from November 15, 1980, until his passing on November 19, 1994. Marian attended Portsmouth High School in New Hampshire and went on to get her Associates Degree from the Community College of Vermont. She had many careers over the years. From small business owner to real estate agent to activities director at assisted living facilities. Marian had a great passion for many things, but often wondered what she would be "when she grew up." Raising her daughters was her primary focus.

Marian was a lover of nature, water, healing arts, gardening, and renovating houses. She wanted to see the whole world. This wanderlust brought her to various US states, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Belize, Spain, Vancouver Island, Mexico, and beyond. She believed strongly in many environmental and social causes and was an active rooter for the underdog. She always wished she could do more to support them. She ensured her legacy of compassion through her teachings to her daughters and grandchildren.

Marian is survived by her daughters: Alicia and Nicole, grandchildren: Madeleine, Oliver and Mabel, sister, Virginia "Dede" Connor, and brother, Edmund M. Connor.

She was a lover of life and all the good that it had to offer but also struggled to feel at home in it at times. Navigating the path between the two was always a challenge for her and those that loved her, but we will remember most her energetic zest for life, and relentless passion.

Services will be held privately at the convenience of the family.
