AUBURN - Henry P. Berube, 80, passed away on Saturday, February 24, 2018 at his home in Auburn. He was born on November 13, 1937, a son of the late Arthur and Theresa (Cloutier) Berube. Henry lived in Maine most of his life. He was a devout Catholic, and a lifelong member of the Sacred Heart Church in Auburn. On May 23, 1959 he married Constance (Giguere), together they had 5 children. They shared a happy and loving marriage of over 33 years until her passing in 1992. He was an accomplished Mason for over 35 years, working for several companies throughout central Maine. He enjoyed being outdoors, hunting, playing horseshoes, spending time with his family and working around the house. He loved traveling to his second home in Florida for the winters with his companion, Germaine and his dog Bud. Henry had a great sense of humor but was known to speak the truth and tell you how it was. He was a hardworking man, always filled with ambition and striving towards his goals even in his later years. Those that knew him most would describe him as loving and generous.
Henry is survived by his two sons, Henry Jr. and his wife Brenda and Raymond and his wife Nyomi; his two daughters, Anita and Cindy; his three brothers, Arthur and his wife, Gerry, Leo and Roland and his wife, Linda; his 8 grandchildren, Ryan, Karena, Amanda and her fiancé, Andrew, Erica, Nathan, Michael, David and Nicole; his three great-grandchildren, Eliot, Lyrah and Meadow and many nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his parents; his wife, Constance; his infant son, Eric; his sister, Jane and his longtime companion, Germaine Dostie. He is loved more than words can describe and will be missed always. As Dad would say, “It is what it is, over and out!”.
