Gary Stimpson Obituary
With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Gary Stimpson (Rochester, New Hampshire), who passed away on November 9, 2018 at the age of 63. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Gary Stimpson to pay them a last tribute.
He is survived by: his parents, Norma Doris (Daniels) and Stimpson; his husband Claude; and his brother Alan.
Standing tall at 6'5" and weighing in at 340 lbs. (in his younger days) he would fill a doorway as he entered a room. He was known as the "incredible bulk "and the "spare crane "when he worked for C.E. Avery in Newington, NH back in the early 80s, and though he could easily devour the 4' long sub sandwiches he brought for his supper, he would usually share it with a coworker, or two. He was known to pick up the back bumper of a friend's car and roll it forward because it was in his way, and that was with the car parked on beach sand. Yet, Gary was a gentle giant; as even the tiniest chipmunk would trustingly sit on in the palm of his huge outstretched hand, as it happily munched the nuts, he offered it. Gary left this earthly realm being very much loved and immeasurably missed by his brother Alan and his wife Francis "Frannie" Stimpson; whose love, care and help saw Gary through his darkest hours throughout the duration of his illness. He also leaves behind his loving friends Linda Labrecque and Claude Poulin, whose lives have been made immensely better for knowing him and immensely saddened by the loss of his presence in their lives. Gary is very much loved and sadly missed by his" favorite girl "Jean Breton, who brought great happiness, inspiration, love, hope and spiritual enlightenment to the final 5 years of his life. His kitties, Janie and Jeanie, are at a loss without him sitting in his favorite chair, where he held and loved then in his lap. God Bless Gary forevermore and may he be in Jesus's loving embrace. Gary was predeceased by his loving mother, Norma, and his father, Dean Stimpson. Donations in Gary's memory can be made to any Goodwill cause of ones' choice.
