Raymond T. Bergeron

Lewiston- Raymond T. Bergeron 46, of Church St. died unexpectedly on Wednesday June 20, 2012, at Central Maine Medical Center after a severe heart attack. He was born in Lewiston, a son of the late Joseph and Jacqueline (Dulac) Bergeron. He was educated in Lewiston, graduated from Lewiston High School Class of 1983, he then went on to earn his Bachelor’s degree in Engineering from Grantham University. Ray married his high school sweetheart Kathleen (Pare) at Holy Cross Church on May 3, 1986, and together they settled on Church St and raised their two children. He has worked for twenty years at Geiger as Engineering and Facilities Manager, a job he truly enjoyed going to everyday. Ray was a member of The Prince of Peace Parish of Holy Cross Church, the Amateur Radio Club, and was “the stats man” for Lewiston High School’s hockey team. He loved the water, whether it was on his boat, in his pool, on Clearwater Beach in FL, or taking care of his tropical fish in his salt water fish tank. Most of all he loved following his children to all of their sporting events. Ray was Mr. Fix It: he loved working on things and could fix almost anything. He leaves his wife of 26 years Kathleen of Lewiston, a daughter Jennifer and a son Jacob both of Lewiston, three sisters Pauline Blackenship and husband Harvey of AK, Susan Corning and husband Dwight of S. Paris, and JoAnn Suter and husband Jeff of WA, a brother Robert Bergeron and wife Giselle of AK, his mother in law Pauline Pare of FL, many nieces and nephews, and his Geiger Family.
