Robert Saucier Obituary
Dad began his new career in the Hampton City School system in 1974 where he taught for 11 years before retiring, for good, in July 1985.
He is survived by his six children, John Saucier (Peggy), Donna Saucier Elliott (James), Craig Saucier, Linda Saucier Fowler (Philip), Glenn Saucier (Denise), Brian Saucier. His eight grandchildren, Nathan Saucier (Kehli), Stephanie Saucier, Evan Fowler, Jennifer Elliott Kimball (James), Lauren Fowler Eastlack (Aaron), Rob Elliott (Sophia), Kristin Elliott Milchuck (Blake), Erin Fowler and his 12 great grandchildren, Whitney, Morgan, Ryan, Brayden, Anthony, Margaret, William, Elizabeth, Dylan, Sloane, Catherine, and Wesley.
Dad was an incredible man. He gave our family the strength and courage to meet the challenges of the world. He, along with mom, defined the meaning of selfless devotion to one's children and dedication to family. Dad's integrity and character are the inspiration that touches each of his children and will continue in his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Truly a member of the Greatest Generation.
Dad now joins mom, the love of his life, in heaven at God's table for life everlasting.

Bob Saucier was my co-teacher at Bethel High School as were labored to change the lives of young people. ICT AND VICA were the tools we joyously used. I will forever miss his wit and integrity. God bless the family.

So sorry for your loss. Mr. Saucier was one of my favorite teachers at Pembroke High. I had the pleasure of being in his VICA class, his efforts lead to my first job at Fort Monroe (Records Management) in my senior year. I've always remembered him, he was a very nice person.

I had the pleasure of working with your dad at Pembroke High School back in the late 70s. He was such a kind man that I always thought so much of. I have thought about him often over the years. I know you will miss him.
