Yvonne Marie (Bergeron) Ledoux

Yvonne Marie (Bergeron) Ledoux, age 62, of Middlefield, passed away peacefully in the early morning on April 15th, 2024. She was born on March 19th,1962 in Hartford, CT; daughter of Donald A. Bergeron and Valarie A. (Parda) Bergeron.



Those who knew her will remember her exuberant soul and positive impact to this world made possible through her affinity to experience life with people and energetic dedication to her passions. Yvonne graduated from Nathan Hale Ray High School in Moodus in 1980. Soon after, she started a family with her late, former husband and father of their two children, Richard Dennis Ledoux. Her early career began as an Avon sales representative. Years later, she pursued two restaurant businesses as owner & manager of "The Yogurt Bar" and "Bagels & More" in the Hartford Civic Center. From there she became a successful sales agent in retirement and financial planning. Next, she returned to the restaurant business as a manager at Tuscany Grill and Baci Grill. Ultimately returning to her love of sales, Yvonne then became the Director of Sales at her father's plastic injection molding business, Plastic Design International, Inc. She proudly supported the family business for many years.

Most recently, she pursued her love and passion of exercise and fitness by becoming a personal trainer and fitness instructor teaching spinning cycling, yoga, and pilates classes at the Middletown YMCA. She loved taking her road bike out for long weekend rides and time spent out on the water with her kayak. Yvonne always challenged herself; seeking to achieve higher levels within all her physical fitness pursuits, which even included training and completing run/bike/swim triathlons!

Another prominent element of Yvonne's life was her long-standing philanthropic involvement at the local and national levels as a member, and multi-term president of the Durham/Middlefield Exchange Club; dedicated to the prevention of child abuse. She was continually volunteering her time and resources to support community service projects, events, and fundraising efforts to support the mission of the club. Anyone in the Durham area will remember her smiling face at the annual Easter Plant Sale or selling delicious French fries at the Exchange booth at the Durham Fair.



Yvonne's dedication to her favorite sports teams, the Boston Red Sox and the Kansas City Chiefs was second to none. She never missed a game and proudly wore her jerseys whenever she could. She loved nature and animals, especially birds and cats and had many great years as a mom to many furry friends.



Yvonne is survived by her children Adam Ledoux (wife Tracey); Michelle (Ledoux) McClintick (husband Jason); four grandchildren Lucas & Oliver Ledoux; Kya & Connor McClintick; mother Valarie (Parda) Bergeron; sisters Suzette (Bergeron) Gaudet (husband Ron) and Kimberly (Bergeron) Guillemin; long-time companion Dr. Gary Roegiers; and many loving aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her father Donald Bergeron.



Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, April 26th at St. Bridget of Kildare Church, 75 Moodus Leesville Rd, Moodus, CT. Burial will be private.
