William Levesque Obituary



William A. Levesque, 42, of East Hampton, son of Carol N.Levesque and the late William L. Levesque passed suddenly on July 10, 2017. Born in 1974 in Hartford, CT, William spent his life pursuing a wide range of interests. He graduated from the University of Connecticut with a degree in Philosophy and later used that to earn his J.D. from the Quinnipiac University School of Law. He then practiced law at a private firm. William lived life on his terms even in the face of the adversity he faced over the last ten years. His sense of humor was best described as irreverent and his ability to make people laugh will be missed. William loved fly-fishing, boating, cooking, and riding his motorcycles. Most of all, he enjoyed the time he spent with family and friends. William is survived by his loving mother Carol, and two brothers, Brendon and his wife Sarah and Elliot and his wife Rachael. He will be missed dearly by his nephew and godson, Jacob Levesque, (who regarded William as a second father) and niece Isabella Levesque. William is also survived by his extended family of aunts, uncles and cousins: Elizabeth Donahue and her husband James, Dominick Zito and his wife Lyn, Eva Oldziej her husband Mirek and their two children Michael and Matthew, Fred Reidinger and his wife Audrey, Albert Levesque, Carol Harley and Michael Levesque. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the American Kidney Fund. Calling hours will be held at Glastonbury Funeral Home on Tuesday, July 18, from 4 to 7 p.m. 450 New London Tnpk., Glastonbury CT 06033.

Dear Carol, Elliot, Brendon and your entire family,
I am deeply saddened to learn about William and offer my sympathy to you at this most difficult time. Whenever I met William he was so pleasant to be with, thoughtful, interesting and humorous. I am so sorry for your family. Carol, having only learned today, I sincerely regret that I was unable to pay my respects to you and all in person. My thoughts will be with you.

We are so truly sorry for the loss of your beautiful Billy. Although we have not seen him since he was a very young man, we remember his kind, witty way when we visited him at his Auntie Liz and Uncle Jim's house. May you all find comfort in the love of your family and friends.

To My Cousins and Family,

I am deeply sorry for your loss. It is so sad that he is so young. I remember William and his brothers as little kids at Lorraine's pool. Lorraine was in heaven having her grandchildren at her home. We had so much fun and those days were so special. William was funny and so full of life. My deepest condolences. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

So sad to hear of the loss of Billy. Although I haven't seen him since 8th grade, he is a huge part of many of my childhood memories. He was one of the smartest and funniest kids I knew. Mrs. Levesque, Brendon, and Elliot, I am praying that the wonderful memories you have of Billy will bring you comfort and peace in your time of sorrow.
