Andrew P. Benoit

February 28, 1955 — November 28, 2016

RICHFORD, VT / BLACKSTONE, VA - Andrew P. Andy Benoit, age 61, passed away Monday, November 28, 2016 at his home in Virginia following a short battle with cancer.

He was born February 28, 1955 in St. Albans, VT to the late Paul & Kathrine (Root) Benoit.

Andy attended St. Albans Bay School and Union 7 School. He dedicated 45 years of his life working as a janitor in public school systems throughout Chittenden and Franklin County. Recently, on April 23, 2016, Andy married his partner for the past 16 years, Pauline White. He was an outdoorsman through and through; he was a member of the NRA and he loved to hunt, fish, camp and ride 4-wheelers. Andy also enjoyed looking at antique tractors and muscle cars; his dream was to own one someday.

Andy was a quiet and humble man who not only enjoyed his family immensely, but was so proud of each and every one of them. He enjoyed spending time with his family whether it be attending a school function for his children or grandchildren, gathering for the holidays, or just talking about the good old days!

He is survived by his wife, Pauline White Benoit of Blackstone, VA; his children, Tabitha Benoit and her partner Justin Peters and Dorothy Carpenter and her husband John all of Colchester, Caitlin Benoit and her partner Donny Clark and Mallory Benoit all of Bakersfield; 5 grandchildren, Alexis, Madison, Elizabeth, Lilly and Justin Benoit and one on the way, Rowan; his step-children, Connie Nolan and her husband Bobby and Tonya Roberts and her husband William all of Virginia and Anna Vogel and her husband Tracy of Alabama; 7 step-grandchildren, Robert and Chantel Nolan, Dustin Roberts and Hailey, Ritley, Faith and Mechain Hayden; 2 step-great grandchildren, Lenyx Nolan and Huey Roberts; a brother, Robert Benoit of Sheldon and several nieces & nephews. Besides his parents, Andy was predeceased by his brother, Paul Benoit.

A memorial service will be held next spring at the Spears Funeral Home in Enosburg Falls, Vermont.
