Ernest Clement Lariviere
November 29, 1925 — October 4, 2014
RICHFORD - Ernest Clement (Clem) Lariviere, age 88, passed away Saturday, October 4, 2014 at his home with his family at his side.
He was born in Richford, November 29, 1925 the son of the late, Edouard & Rose Alma (Lamarine) Lariviere.
Clem grew up in Richford. At 18, he left the family farm and joined the United States Navy during World War II. After being honorably discharged he, and his wife Arlene, moved to Allen Park, MI where they raised their daughters Pamela and Debra. Clem was a machinist for the Excello Corporation of Detroit. They resided there until 1970 when they moved back to Vermont.
He worked, as a foreman, at the Montgomery School House until he retired in 1990. He had a natural ability to repair or make anything. He had a deep love for animals and had a very well-known small hobby farm, for many years, in Montgomery which brought him, and many others, countless hours of joy.
Clem had a very strong love and adoration for his family. He was a quiet and humble man, exceptionally kind, and always a gentleman. Anyone that ever met him, never forgot him. He will truly be missed.
He is survived by his longtime friend and soul mate of 32 years, Shirley Jewett of Richford; his daughters, Pamela Covert & her husband Dale of Canton, MI, and Debra Emerson and her husband Darrell White of Brownstown, MI; his grandchildren, Andrew, Amanda & Daniel Emerson, Amy Sandberg, Candince Del Rio and Dale J. Covert; his great grandson, Alec Lariviere Sandberg; several nieces and nephews; Shirleys children & their families, Duane & Parma Jewett of Montgomery, Dwight & Kathy Jewett of Moultonborough, NH, Cindy Moulton & Gary Richardson of Hardwick, and Candace & Charles Callan of Phoenix, AZ. Besides his parents, Clem was predeceased by his wife, Arlene (St. Onge) Lariviere; his brothers, Rolland, Joseph & Norman Lariviere; and his sisters, Alice Cass, Aline Lavoie, Jeanne Conklin, Lucille Spadacini & Frances Benson.
A graveside service will be held Thursday October 9, 2014 at 11:00 AM at All Saints Cemetery in Richford with Rev. Karl Hahr officiating. There will be no visiting hours.
