Marilyn Gouin Obituary
Marilyn was born in Brattleboro on July 19, 1947, the daughter of Howard and Shirley (Nutting) Rabideau. She was raised and educated in town, attending St Michael's Parochial School graduating from St. Michael's High School with the Class of 1965. She enjoyed music and was a proud member of the St. Michael's High School Band.
She had been employed as an export customer service representative and buyer for SpringTree Maple Products in Brattleboro where she retired from in 2008 following many years of faithful service with the company.
Of her favorite pastimes, Marilyn enjoyed playing board games with her grandchildren, BINGO, excursions to the local casinos and attending Paint Nights. One of her more memorable trips was to Las Vegas with her beloved mother, a generous Christmas present given to her by her husband.
Most importantly, Marilyn cherished time spent with her family, especially her great-grandchildren who she affectionately referred to as her "Littles."
On November 26, 1966, at St. Michael's Catholic Church, she was married to Wilfred L. Gouin who survives.
Besides her faithful and devoted husband of 55 years, she leaves: two daughters, Tammy Cobb of Brattleboro and Lisa Raymond of Hadley, MA; one sister, Pamela Barre and husband Richard of Brattleboro; her grandchildren, Amber Renaud, Ericka Barrows and husband Jason, Justin Gouin, Ryan and Max Cobb, Chelsea, Thomas, Hailey and Hannah Raymond; and her great-grandchildren, Jocelyn and Makenna Renaud, Bryson Gregg, Liliana and Hayden Barrows, and Cayden Cobb.
Marilyn was predeceased by: a daughter, Lori Gouin; two sisters, Becky Jacques and Diane Avery; and a grandson, Tanner Raymond.
Graveside committal services in St. Michael's Parish Cemetery will be conducted at a later date with Pastor Bruce Burk, officiating. She will be laid to rest with her loving daughter Lori by her side.
A heartfelt thank you to the Vernon Green staff for the care she was given, especially by Nurse Ashley in her final hours.
