1940 – 2015

AUBURN — Patricia Ann Beaulieu, 75, a resident of Livermore Falls, passed away on Sunday, July 19, at The Hospice House of Androscoggin in Auburn, with her family by her side.

She was born on March 31, 1940, in Jay, the daughter of Norris and Viola (Mandigo) LaBrecque. Patty attended schools in Livermore Falls.

Patty was a hard worker and raised five children as a single mother. She will be remembered by many from her many years spent waitressing at the Chuck Wagon Restaurant. Patty worked at International Paper in several departments, retiring from the test lab in 2005. She was a member of the International Paper Quarter Century Club and the Red Hats.

Patty was a good friend and will be remembered most for her kindness, compassion and willingness to help a friend in need. She enjoyed reading, knitting (especially mittens and slippers for her grandchildren), cooking, baking (she will always be remembered for her chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter fudge) and gardening. Patty could often be found in her yard tending to her flowers, and always had peanuts, seeds and bread out for her birds and squirrels.

Patty was predeceased by her parents, Viola and Norris; a sister, Nancy Bryant; son, Wayne Beaulieu; and grandson, Ryan McCourt.

She is survived by her sons, Larry Beaulieu Jr. of Texas and Neil Beaulieu of Gorham, N.H.; daughters, Mary and her husband, Wayne Dube, of Livermore Falls, and Sharon and her husband, Steve McCourt, of North Jay; paternal aunt, Sandra Chretien of Livermore Falls; brother, Donald LaBrecque of Skowhegan and his son, Gunnar; grandchildren, Jaime Beaulieu, Karen Beaulieu and Christine Beaulieu, all of Gainesville, Fla., Alison Dube and husband, Brandon Dickey, of Auburn, Stephanie and husband, Chris Black, of Turner, Jared McCourt and partner, Danielle Farrell, of North Jay, Trevor McCourt and wife, Jenna, of Old Town, Kasey Halliday, U.S. Army, of Colorado, and Kaleb Halliday of Orono; great-grandchildren, Joshua Breitfeld Jr. of Gainesville, Fla., Gracie Mae McCourt of North Jay, and Trent Black and Ethan Merrill of Turner; cousin and special friend, Mary Jo Hamel of Lewiston; and special friends LeeAnn LaFleur of Livermore Falls and Evelyn Chabot of Livermore Falls.

The family wishes to thank Nelda Bond for her loving care and support for Patty and the family over the past week.
