Raymond J. LePage
WATERVILLE – On Friday, Jan. 3, 2025, Raymond J. LePage, 86, lovingly passed away with his life partner by his side.
He was born on May 29, 1938, to Alphonze and Victoria (Veilleux) LePage. He was discharged from the Air Force as a machinist in May 1962. He worked for many years as a skilled mason. After retiring he continued working, fixing golf carts which he truly enjoyed doing.
On May 8, 1965, he married Ruth (Bowie) LePage; she passed after 50 years of marriage in 2015. In his later years he moved with Ruth to Seton Village in Waterville, which he remained until his passing.
Ray was a gentle and loving man who would always be available to help his family, friends and neighbors. He was an avid hunter and fisherman who loved to fish with his special nephew and niece, Bev and David. Ray loved to play cards, especially cribbage with his so-called harem, he was also quite a Scat player, in which he loved giving his friends a hard time. But his favorite enjoyment was eating out with friends, especially having lobsters as often as he could.
Ray was preceded in death by his father, Alphonze and mother Victoria, his wife Ruth, brother Alphonse (Babe) LePage. He is survived by his sisters, Jeannette Boudreau, Pearl (Michael) Delong, sister-in-law Theresa LePage, and many nieces and nephews.
He will be sadly missed by his life partner and care giver Pauline Maxwell; with the support of his nephew and nieces, David, Bev and Vickie, as well as a good friend Pat Boudreau who helped make visiting time with him a happy one.
We would like to THANK Northern Light Hospice for their continued help and support in our time of need, we could not have done it without them. Thank you, Heather, Michele, Sherri and everyone who was involved with his care.
A private graveside will be held at the Maine Veterans’ Memorial Cemetery in Augusta.
A Celebration of Life will be held on May 29, 2025, at the Seton Village Center. All are welcome. A reminder will be sent.
