ARY JAMES VIOLETTE
1953-2022
NORRIDGEWOCK- Gary James Violette, father, and grandfather, passed away peacefully at home in the arms of his three children on October 1st, 2022, at the age of 69.
Gary was born March 6, 1953, the second of seven children of Robert and Ethel Violette. He grew up in Fairfield and attended Lawrence High School, where he played football, graduating in 1971. He later received a degree in civil engineering from CMCC and enjoyed a long and successful career in construction inspection and management.
Gary was an avid outdoorsman and spent most of his time enjoying and maintaining the beautiful parcel of land that he called home. He loved to garden and to pick apples in his orchards with his children and grandchildren. From a young age, he took great pleasure in hunting, fishing, boating, four wheeling, and snowmobiling. Gary was also well known for being a vintage car fanatic; his '64 Chevy Bel Air was his pride and joy. History and gun/war memorabilia collecting were passions of his as well. He was especially well versed in American and local Maine history and was always happy to share stories of the past with family and friends.
His three grandchildren from his daughter, Cortney Bard, Nile age 6, Nova age 3, and Nellie age 1 were the light of his life. Gary is also survived by his two sons, James Violette, and Coby Violette; as well as his six siblings, David Violette, Kevin Violette, Joel Violette, Peter Violette, Todd Violette, and his sister Donna Maiorino.
An outdoor celebration of life will be held at his home on Sunday, October 23rd. Please contact any of his family members for more details.
Arrangements are in the care of Lawry Brothers Funeral Home, 107 Main St., Fairfield where memories may be shared, and an online register book signed by visiting www.lawrybrothers.com.
