Arthur George Soberon

Arthur was born on September 14th, 1976, in Lawrence, Massachusetts, the son of Freddy and Colleen Soberon.

Arthur was a light to everyone who knew him. He had a servant’s heart and a deep love for helping those in need. His greatest joy in life was spending time with his beloved wife, Elisa, and with the animals he cherished so dearly—Bella, Bo, Lady, Guizmo, and Massey.

Arthur’s life was marked by love, compassion, and an unwavering faith in God. In service to others, Arthur and his wife, Elisa, sold items from their storage units to raise money in support of the sober community—an act that reflected their shared commitment to faith, recovery, and helping others in need. His passing has left a profound void in the hearts of his family, friends, and all who knew him. He will be remembered not for the way his life ended, but for the way he lived and the lasting impact he had on everyone around him.

Arthur worked for a local flooring company, where he was employed on and off for 30 years. James Bijeol, Kary Bijeol, Nicholas Bijeol, and Austin Bijeol were an extension of Arthur’s life for the past three decades and held a special place in his heart.

Arthur is survived by his wife, Elisa Soberon; his father, Freddy Soberon; and his siblings: Natacha Soberon Mercedes, Jennifer Nazzaro, Freddy Soberon, Christina Soberon, and Brian Soberon. He is also survived by his aunts: Ellena Soberon Ortiz, Sylvie Soberon Tair, and Monica Soberon Buxton.

He leaves behind many cherished nieces and nephews: Christian Soberon, Shane Chunilal, Iseline Mendoza, Madeline Gomez, Joseph Soberon, Asia Soberon, Madison (Maddie) Soberon, Jonah Badillo, Jojo Soberon, Benjamin Soberon, and Lucas Soberon, as well as his cousins, Wanda Ortiz (Luly), Sophee Tair, Jacob Tair, Noah Tair, Rebecca Buxton, and Amelia Buxton.

Arthur is also survived by his children: daughter Bryanna Waugh; son Gabriel Soberon; stepdaughter Tabitha Haarlander; stepson Timothy Hudson; and daughter Julie Clark.

Arthur was a proud and loving grandfather to Carter Santana, Sawyer Haarlander, Hudson Haarlander, Weston Haarlander, Casey Haarlander, Brody Hudson, and Adalynn Hudson.

He also leaves behind his lifelong best friend, Richard Comeau, whom he had known for most of his life.

A Celebration of Life will be held on January 4, 2026, at 2:00 PM at One Church, located at 56 Old Bedford Road, Bedford, NH 03110.

Arthur’s Favorite Scriptures:

The Parable of the Lost Sheep (Luke 15:3–7)

“So he told them this parable: ‘What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing… Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.’”

Matthew 7:13–14

“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”
