LEBANON - Allyre T. Ouellette, 66, a resident of Lebanon, died Sunday, January 3, 2016, with his loving family by his side, following a lengthy and brave battle with emphysema.
Allyre was born September 29, 1949, to the late Dennis Ouellette and the late Mathilda (Chamberland) Ouellette. He graduated in 1970 from Wisdom High School in St Agatha, Maine, and later moved to New Britain, Conn., and met the love of his life and soul mate Darlene Godin and married July 30, 1977. They later moved to Lebanon in 1987 where he was employed by Godin Brothers & Associates as a sheet-rocker and later a maintenance mechanic for St. Elizabeth School in Rochester N.H.
Allyre or "big Al" as some might call him was an avid Red Sox fan who also enjoyed going to his grandchildren's sports games as much as possible. The times he loved most were spent with his grandchildren whom he adored, whether it be camping in the back yard, playing whiffle ball or just simply hanging out together would be OK, too. He also loved to be the life of the party, telling jokes and making people laugh with his funny gestures. His love of dancing with his wife would always turn heads on the dance floor with amazement.
His lifelong friends are Ronnie Dufour, Bert Cyr and Roy Chamberland who have many unforgettable memories together.
