Richard A. Aubuchon

Richard Arthur Aubuchon of Hingham, MA did just that. Richard passed away June 17, 2021, after a brief illness, and truly left a life well lived and loved. Dick, Big Daddy, Obie, Mr. A. and Grampy was known to so many. His big personality and even bigger voice will be greatly missed.

Dick leaves behind his most beloved children, Michelle Ann Belsan her husband Peter, and Elizabeth Marie Conrad and her husband Adam, all of Scituate, MA. He leaves his grandchildren, who were his pride and joy: Lily Elizabeth Belsan, Matthew Richard Belsan and Vivienne Elizabeth Conrad. He is also survived by his good friend Nancy Boccia, loving sister Kathleen Barry of Fitchburg, MA, and his brother Robert Aubuchon of Atlanta, GA, numerous nieces, nephews, and a loving extended family.

His passion for teaching and education made him an extraordinary educator. Mr. A., as he was known, taught in Hartford, CT, Rockland, Norwell, Hull and Everett, MA. He became the Superintendent of Schools at Lake Region Union High School in Orleans, VT, where he received numerous awards and commendations. It was in this role that Dick was the most proud. He retired to Hingham, MA to be near his family in 2002.

One of his greatest memories was as a member of the United States Army Reserve and marching in the inaugural parade for John F. Kennedy.

His children and grandchildren will dearly miss their Grampy - the wonderful “lunch bunch” dates, his humor and his superior driving lessons. He was the best father, grandfather and friend who was loved by so many.

Richard Aubuchon truly leaves a life well lived and will be deeply missed.
