Arthur W. Brousseau

He was born in Willimantic, Conn., July 09, 1940, the son of Florence (Sage) and Arthur W. Brousseau, Sr. He grew up in Windham, CT, and was a graduate of Windham Technical Vocational High School.

Affectionately known as “Buddy”, Mr. Brousseau worked for 26 years with the City of Keene in their Highway Department, driving truck #26. He retired in 1995.

He enjoyed boating and watching NASCAR. He was known as a “Ford Man” and was a die-hard New York Yankees Fan. Over the years, his home was filled with many foster pug dogs, in addition to his own pugs. Mr. Brousseau had a love for working with his hands and could quite often be found tinkering in the back shed at his home.

He is survived by his wife of 55 years, Faith T. (D’Amour) Brousseau of Keene; his children, William Brousseau of Hinsdale, NH and Theresa Carreira and her husband, Christopher, of Rindge, NH; two granddaughters, Tina Brousseau and Jennifer Brousseau, both of Hinsdale; five great-grandchildren, Kevin, Megan, Ashlynne, Keegan and Sara; and several nieces and nephews.
