AUGUSTA – Leopold R. “Paul” Paquette, 94, of Augusta, died Jan. 24, 2021, at Alfond Center for Health in Augusta. He was born in Waterville, on May 13, 1926, the middle son of Ernest Paquette and Exilia Paquette.

Leopold never made it past the fifth grade, but he was smarter than most educated men. Anything he touched turned to gold. He took much pride in his work. He would not settle for anything but perfection.

His farm definitely showed his pride. It was his little corner of his world.

Leoplod is predeceased by his wife, Theresa G. (Duperry) Paquette.

Survivors include his two sons, Paul and Daniel; four grandchildren and many great-grandchildren. He will be dearly missed by all.
