March 4, 1927 — February 5, 2013

BERKSHIRE - Rosaire C. Paradis, 85, passed away on Tuesday, February 5, 2013 at the Northwestern Medical Center in St. Albans.

Rosaire was born on March 4, 1927 in Brownington, VT, the son of the late Rolland & Delina (Vachon) Paradis.

Rosaire moved to Montreal as a child with his family. Returning to VT, he was drafted into the army to serve during the Korean War. Upon his discharge, he returned to VT to enjoy a 59 year marriage to Vivian and was blessed with 9 children. He was a farmer and loved horse racing. Rosaire became a lifetime member of the American Legion after 50 years of membership; a milestone he reached earlier this year.
