George Romeo Vigue

MADISON – George Romeo Vigue, 93, passed away on Nov. 5, 2024, at Reddington-Fairview Hospital in Skowhegan, after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last month.

George was born Jan. 4, 1931, in Skowhegan, son of the late Edmond and Irene Vigue.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Lorraine (Bagley) Vigue. They had been married for 68 years. George was also preceded in death by his siblings Lawrence Vigue, Charles Vigue, Willie Vigue, Doris Sirous, and Fern Poulin.

George had several jobs throughout the years. He worked for many years at Norwalk Shoe, then the Hinkley School, Mary Holland Donavan School, and finally finished out his career working for Carrabec High School in the industrial arts program with special needs children.

George is survived by his three children, Cheryl Chase (Lloyd) of Cape Coral, Fla,. Valmore (Joanne) of Madison, and Jacqueline Gordon (Darryl) of Forest, Va. He also leaves behind 13 grandchildren; 35 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.

George was an avid hunter and fisherman. Even as recent as last fall he shot two deer from 20 feet up in his tree stand, at the age of 92.

George was kind, generous, faithful, loving, a faithful prayer warrior and dedicated in all aspects of his life. While in Maine, he attended Crossroads Bible Church in Madison. During the winter, while in Virginia, he attended Heritage Baptist Church in Lynchburg. He would tell you that the best decision he ever made was asking Christ to be Lord of his life in the Spring of 1972. George (Dad, Grampa, Bumpa) will be dearly missed but the family rejoices in knowing where he is spending eternity and that he is reunited with Lorraine (Mom, Nanna, Great Nanna). He leaves a godly legacy for his family.

The family is planning a Celebration of Life service to be held in the Spring of 2025.
