    VAN BUREN - Clarence Violette, 85, passed away peacefully Saturday, May 1, 2021, at a Caribou hospital. He was born May 27, 1935, in Van Buren, a son of the late Leo and Annette (Dube) Violette.
    He started working at a young age for a construction company at Loring Air Force Base, Limestone. On November 25, 1953, Clarence married the love of his life, Stella Lapointe, and shortly later relocated to Connecticut for better work opportunities. He worked several construction jobs in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York, until they decided to buy a mobile home. The purchase of the mobile home launched Clarence and Stella on a journey for the next ten years with their young sons, Michael and Richard. In 1955, Clarence was hired as a construction foreman by Economy Forms Corporation (EFCO), which was based in Des Moines, Iowa. With EFCO, he worked large-scale construction projects in New Jersey, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., and Long Island, New York. Eventually, they settled in Westbrook, CT, in 1966, where they started to build their first home, and, following the birth of their son, Patrick, in 1967, moved into the new home just before Christmas. They remained in Westbrook until Clarence retired in 1998, where he spent 43 years with EFCO, and climbed the ranks to District Manager for New England. Following retirement, he and his wife relocated back to their hometown of Van Buren, Maine, where they moved into and renovated his parents' home.
    Clarence spent countless hours volunteering in Westbrook, where he became a loyal parishioner at St. Mark's Church, a Trustee of the Parish, and he oversaw many renovations to the church's buildings. He was a member of the volunteer fire department/ambulance association in Westbrook and an assistant troop leader for the Boys Scouts of America. During his retirement, he was instrumental in the renovation of St. Bruno - St. Remi Catholic Church, Van Buren, in 2002. Though Clarence will be sadly missed, he will forever be remembered for his long life of service to the Lord, his family, and friends.
    He is survived by his loving wife of more than 67 years, Stella (Lapointe) Violette of Van Buren; two sons, Richard Violette and his wife, Kelly, of Westbrook, CT, and Patrick Violette and his wife, Liuby, of Madison, CT; two sisters, Rita Bouchard of Frenchville and Gloria Theriault of Caribou; nine grandchildren and stepgrandchildren, Sarah Rose, Joshua, Ashleigh, Kevin, Jacques, Matthew, Nicholas, Christopher and Jason; several great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews. Besides his parents, Clarence was predeceased by a son, Michael Violette; siblings, Leo James, Raymond and Robert Violette, and Patricia Hill; and infant brothers, Harold and Elmer.
    A Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated privately with Clarence's family, and burial will be in St. Bruno Cemetery, Van Buren. Arrangements are a service of Lajoie Funeral Home, 118 High St., Van Buren. To share condolences online, please visit LajoieFuneralHome.com.
