Joseph Boisvert Obituary

Visit the Cremation Society of New Hampshire - Manchester website to view the full obituary.

Joseph (Chick) G. Boisvert peacefully passed in his Manchester home July 31, 2018, after a long illness, surrounded by his wife and daughters. Born to William and Gertrude (Proulx) Boisvert on February 6, 1945, he is brother to Alfred Boisvert (pre-deceased), and Janet (Boisvert) Carter. He is survived by his wife, Nansi Boisvert, daughters Heidi Boisvert and Billie Jean Osgood, and grandsons Brendan and Gavin Osgood. Joe was a graduate of St. Anthony High School and of SNHU. A Vietnam War veteran from 1965-7 (35th Artillery), he was a dedicated union member and letter carrier for the United States Postal Service for fifty years. Loving husband and best friend to his wife, Joe was a devoted and involved father. An avid world traveler, a nurturing coach and loyal sports fan, he was also a lover of opera and the arts, who enjoyed being in nature, especially by the sea. Family and friends will sorely miss his mischievous humor and laughter, kindness and generosity. A celebration of Joe's very full life will occur in Kennebunk during September. Memorial donations in Joe's memory can be made to the National Kidney Foundation or Home Health & Hospice Care of Merrimack.

My deepest condolences go out to you BJ, Heidi, Mrs. Boisvert and family. I only just found this out the other day. Your dad was my first softball coach, and having your Dad as my coach, was definitely one of my greatest first experiences on the softball field I was 9 years old and had no clue how to play. I started in right field and eventually moved to being an MVP pitcher. You guys were always so kind to my family, who were still new to the country. Your Dad always made me feel included and special, as I'm sure that he treated everyone in the same regard. I have such a high respect for him, and think about him often. It seems like yesterday, I would see him delivering mail every now and again. I know he is up there with the Angels. We need more Angels like Mr. Boisvert in this world. Thank you, coach, for helping to shape the person I am today. Xoxo! Rest In Peace.

My father, Rick Boisvert enjoyed Chick's company. Seems many times when I was with my dad we would run into each other at the red barn ice cream in Hooksett. That was many years ago yet what I remember is the laughter and joy he brought to other people. He will always be remembered. Kathi Doucet

I was sad to hear about "Chick's" passing although relieved that he is no longer suffering. My thoughts are with his sister Janet, his sister-in-law Carol and their families. He was a kind man, I pray he's in a much better place and can rest in peace.
