MARCEL ARTHUR BENOIT

BRIDPORT — Marcel Arthur Benoit, born on Oct. 12, 1954, passed away on Dec. 15, 2024. He is survived by his loving wife of 46 years, Julia (Lovey) Benoit, and his son, Allen and wife Amanda. Marcel was a dedicated laborer who served his community through the local labor union with pride and dedication.

Marcel found joy in gardening, often sharing his bountiful harvests with family and friends. He took immense pride in his first Harley, a ‘57 Panhead, which he meticulously built himself. Marcel’s heart held a special place for his biker brothers, especially his blood brother and friend, Ben, as well as his lifelong friend, Brett Lavigne. He cherished the new friendships he formed with Brennan and Oliver.

Marcel is also survived by his siblings: Suzette Gibbs, Norman, Martha Cary, Robert, Renee Lombard, Jeanne Hallock, and Ann Milizia, along with many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Ludger Benoit and Helen (Lapointe) Benoit.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Ann for her selfless care and support for Marcel.

A memorial service will be held in the spring in Bridport, where friends and family will gather to celebrate Marcel’s life and the memories they shared with him.

Rest in peace, Marcel. You will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved you.
