Lance Kilmister Obituary
Loudon, NH - Lance T. Kilmister of Loudon passed away on Friday, December 2, 2022 peacefully at his home that he loved so much. He made a wonderful life for us all there.
He was born in Concord, NH to the late Thomas and Theo (Hutchins) Kilmister. They lived in Concord, and then moved to North Pembroke where he graduated from Pembroke Academy in 1967. After graduation he enlisted in the Marine Corp servicing as an Orderly for an Admiral spending time in the Mediterranean and then he volunteered to go to Vietnam to be with his brother, Nelson.
Lance spent over 30 years working at the Swenson Granite Company in Concord.
Lance enjoyed chain saw sculpting, landscaping our beautiful yard, gardening and his flowers. But most of all he loved his family. Lance was a very generous man always thinking of others in need. Lance had a very artistic eye with quite an imagination; he had a great sense of humor.
Lance is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Madeline (Kenneally). Three sons who he was very proud of, Baron and his wife, Shelby, Tobin and his wife, Katie and Grant and his love, Amanda; three granddaughters that he adored, Amelia, Piper and Scarlett; 5 siblings who he loved, Dale Kilmister, Nelson Kilmister, Haven Cutting and her husband, Ed, Kimberly Kenneally, Margo DuPont and her husband, Paul as well as lots of loved nieces and nephews.
Lance's family would like to thank the hospice staff that helped us so much during this difficult time. We couldn't have done it without you.
Calling hours will be held on Friday, December 9, 2022 from 2PM to 4PM at The Roan Family Funeral Home – Still Oaks Chapel 1217 Suncook Valley Highway in Epsom. Burial will take place at Leavitt Cemetery in Chichester in the Spring at the convenience of the family.
