It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our brother, Russell G. Rochette, 67. He passed on Thursday, August 22, 2024 in his hometown of Nashua, New Hampshire at Southern New Hampshire Medical Center. He was the beloved son of the late Raymond O. and Lorraine D. (Beaulieu) Rochette.
Russell was born in Nashua, New Hampshire on March 8, 1957. He received his education in the Nashua School System and was a graduate of Nashua High School with the class of 1975 and he went on to pursue a career in real estate. His career took him to many locations on the east coast from Sunday River, Maine to Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Grand Cayman, Bermuda and then spent many years in Georgetown, Delaware. In recent years, he relocated back to Nashua.
Russ had a love and passion for skiing especially at Sunday River in Maine, boating on his cabin cruiser on the Hudson River in New York, camping with lifelong friends and vacationing in the tropics. His favorite tropical vacation was Punta Cana. Above all, throughout his life, he truly cherished his family and friends.
