Bruce Poulin Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Date of Birth: February 27, 1963
Bruce Allen Poulin, 62 took his final ride on October 5, 2025 leaving behind a trail of smoke, stories and unforgettable memories. He lived life fast, laughed loud and never apologized for being exactly who he was.
Bruce had a passion for horsepower, high volume and living life on his own terms. If it had wheels he wanted to race it, if it had speakers he wanted to crank it. He believed that rules were mostly suggestions and that a good time was worth chasing.
A master carpenter by trade, Bruce wasn't just someone who worked with his hands- he built with heart from clean rooms for giants like Motorola, Intel and NASA, to backyard pools that became centerpieces of summer memories, he took pride in every detail. His craftsmanship touched lives across industries and across the country.
Bruce was predeceased by his father Marty Poulin, his mother Gladys Bradstreet and brother Mike Poulin.
He leaves behind his son Bruce and daughter Kasie. Grandchildren Bryce, Lexie-Anne, Kaiya, Aiyana and Sophia. Brothers Mike Bradstreet, Charlie Bradstreet, Danny Poulin and Ed Poulin. As well as many friends.
A celebration of life will be held Monday, October 13, 2025 from 2 to 4 at Funeral Alternatives in Lewiston.
In his honor skip the flowers, instead take a road trip crank your favorite music and light one up for the old man, he'd like that better anyway.
