Rene Roy Obituary
Rene was born in Canada and spent most of his life in Biddeford, Maine. He just recently became a snow bird and spent the cold winters in Lake Wales, Florida. Rene was a well-loved man, known for his carpentry skills and the pride he took in his work. If you met Rene, you couldn't help but love him. Rene loved fishing, music, camping with his buddies, and traveling with his companion.
He is survived by his long-term partner Elaine (Laney) DeQuasie, parents Charlie and Charlotte Roy, his son Chris Mondor, daughter Allison and husband Caleb Schaaf, his daughter Tanika Roy, his daughter Alicia Roy and spouse Daniel Courtway, three grandchildren Rebekah and Micah Schaaf, and Cason Courtway and one step grandchild Mia Courtway. He is also survived by his brother Rejean and wife Doreen Roy, brother Mike and wife Robin Roy, brother Jean and wife Kelly Roy, brother Marc and wife Michelle Roy, and his sister Lisa and husband Jamie St.Louis, along with many nieces and nephews.
Rene was predeceased by his son Jason Roy.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date to honor and remember Rene's life and the impact he had on those around him.

I was saddened to hear of Rene´s passing. I´m so sorry Laney for your loss. My sincere condolences to you and to all who will dearly miss him.
Rene was the first person to welcome Al and I to Tower Lakes. He told us if we needed anything to just ask him. The day we left he came over to say goodbye and gave us a hug. Rene was very kind to us and we will always remember his generosity.

Renes since of humor!! In Biddeford, I was getting out of my sister's car as the front passenger. Rene was getting out behind me at the same time. I was looking forward and slammed by door really hard. There was a blood curdling scream behind me. I looked back and Rene was in agony and it looked like 2 fingers gone, bent out of side. I almost threw up. I thought I chopped off his fingers. I looked at his face and saw that twinkle in his eyes and smiling.To this day, I don't know if i should throw up or laugh thinking of that joke. You will be so missed Rene.
