Andrew Mattison Raucci

North Hampton - Andrew Mattison Raucci, 43, of North Hampton, passed away suddenly on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, at Portsmouth Regional Hospital surrounded by his family. He was the loving husband of Katherine (Lowell) Raucci.

Born in New York City to Marian Mattison and Marshall Raucci Jr., Andrew lived many lives and had more experiences and careers than most others in his brief 43 years. He was raised in East Greenwich, RI and attended Bishop Hendricken High School. Rhode Island fostered his love for fishing and surfing, passions he aspired to pass down to his children. Growing up, he spent many winters skiing and teaching snowboarding in Waterville Valley, NH. It was on the mountain where he first met Kate, who years later became his wife.

Following his graduation from Pepperdine University in 2004, Andrew commissioned as an officer in the United States Marine Corps. He ascended in rank to Captain and honorably served his country in Iraq as a Tank Platoon Commander. He was proud to serve his country; that service went on to define a core piece of his being. Andrew often said one of his greatest blessings was bringing all his guys home. After his honorable discharge from the Marines, he earned his M.B.A. from the University of Rhode Island and worked in the financial service industry as a portfolio manager.

Andrew and Kate reconnected on Christmas day in 2013 and were married at St. Matthew's in Plymouth, NH during the summer of 2015. After marrying, they moved to North Hampton, NH to raise their growing family. Andrew, continually seeking new challenges or hobbies, left his job working for a prominent bank and embarked on a new career as an electrician. He was accepted into The IBEW Local Union 490 apprentice program, obtained his Journeyman License and quickly became a Master Electrician. He then went on to start his own union electrical contracting business - Veterans Electric, LLC in 2023. Throughout his life he was active in the community, serving on several boards for different nonprofit organizations, committees within IBEW Local Union 490, and, most recently, was a member of the Budget Committee for the Town of North Hampton.

Andrew loved deeply and completely, was extraordinarily loyal, and was passionate about always learning. You could find him most nights dancing in the kitchen with his wife or wrestling on the floor with his children. He leaves behind a legacy of a life well lived and a heartbroken family.

In addition to his wife, Andrew is survived by his children, Andrew "Finn", Jax, and Coraline, his parents Marian Mattison and Marshall Raucci, Jr., his brother Marshall "Tripp" Raucci and his wife Cristen Raucci, brother William Raucci and his wife Nancy Raucci, father-in-law John Lowell and his wife Carrie Lowell, sister-in-law Madison Hardy, brother-in-law Trevor Lowell and his wife Emily Lowell as well as several nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his daughter Hunter Adelaide Raucci, brother-in-law Tyler David Hardy, and loving grandparents.
