Victor Duhaime
Victor Duhaime, 78 of Manchester passed away on Nov. 11th at the Community Hospice House in Merrimack from complications of Alzheimer's disease. He was born in Manchester on May 21, 1936, son of the late Ovila and Cecile (Boucher) Duhaime.

Victor was a long time supervisor in the City of Manchester's Parks Department and was a familiar and friendly face at the JFK Coliseum and Gill Stadium. He had an adventurous soul and took up hunting and skiing in his late forties. He also enjoyed square and line dancing but above all he enjoyed spending time with his family.
He was a world traveler that visited many exotic places with his wife Dolly who was the center of his universe for 55 years. Most of all he was a kind hearted person with a beautiful personality that was loved by all who knew him.
