Raymond Godbout

Raymond Godbout (60), of Manchester NH, passed away peacefully in his sleep at home on December 1st, 2019. Born on November 21st, 1959 to Roger & Therese (Filteau) Godbout, Ray would remain a NH resident for the rest of his life, and would later marry his wife Theresa, with whom he shared 24 years of love and friendship.

Ray proudly worked in maintenance for many years, having spent 16 of them at Lamont Hanley. Ray was extremely adept at using his hands and was able to fix anything that came his way, having refurbished many cars, motorcycles, tractors and other automobiles throughout his life. He always kept busy to pass the time as he was always "up since 4:00 working" and making sure everything was working as it should.

Ray will be remembered as a compassionate, caring and loving husband, father, grandfather and friend to many. Among the many things he enjoyed, Ray loved spending time with his family, camping, snowmobiling and cooking with his children, riding on the tractor with his grandchildren, and of course fixing up his automobiles. Above all, Ray loved being with his family and friends, and his quick wit, humor and good nature will be missed by all whose lives he touched. As Raymond used to say, "Everybody Loves Raymond."

Ray is survived by his wife Terry Godbout; Son Jason Dobe and his wife Sara; Daughter Vikki Marks and her husband Byron; Brother Ronald Godbout and his wife Lynn; Brother Danny Godbout and his wife Pat; Brother David Godbout and his wife Diana; Sister Diane Dame and her husband Bruce; 8 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren and many nieces, nephews and extended family.
