Rene Arthur Gagnon Jr.

I'm so saddened to hear of Rene's passing. Although we had not spoken in a long time we always got along very well I had dated his amazing daughter Heather for a while .... I will always fondly remember the Christmas dinner I had over his and Paulines house. Heather brought me over and as I was removing my boots on the porch I asked Heather and her mom why there were pictures of the flag raising . From the living room boomed "Well, let me tell you about those ." And we had many conversations...

My name is Jaiden Mandsager but Mother's Maiden name is Gagnon. I'm part of this great family. I'm glad to be a part of it and I wish I was born sooner so I could have meet you. I hope you rest in peace.

Rene Jr. was so very special in helping rescue helpless dogs and finding them homes. Even though I lived more than 1,000 miles from Rene, he helped me locate a special dog and adopt it. Condolences to Rene´s wonderful wife and members of his fine family!

Rene you will be missed by many including me. Hope we meet again.

A note to the family. My condolences . I knew Pauline and how proud she was of her 2 Rene s. Best thoughts to all .

Rene was one of our better siding applicators when working at Custombilt, Inc. in Manchester. He was always a gentleman when he came into the office to pick up his paycheck. I am sorry for your loss. Rest in peace Rene.

It was a true pleasure and honor to know Rene and his family. We had a few precious meetings with him in NH and many wonderful memories of he and his family's visits to us in CT. He shared may of his thoughts and opinions with us about Iwo Jima and his father. He and his father will be remembered and honored in our Iwo Jima Museum. We miss you!

My thoughts & prayers are with all of you. Rene will be deeply missed.

So sorry to hear of his passing, gone but not forgotten
