David Therrien Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
10/07/1963 - 01/12/2025
It is with profound grief that I share the unexpected passing of my beloved husband David after a sudden heart attack in our home.
David worked for the last 22 years at Norwich Free Academy in the Facilities Maintenance Department. Working hard to provide a safe and productive environment for students and staff.
David made many lifetime friends. Several from working, some from life's journeys. Very many from his adventures doing his passion of 4-wheeling wherever and whenever possible!
David was a kind and authentic Man. Very witty and a kid at heart. His laugh was contagious and his love was pure.
He will be missed by so many and will live forever in my heart, Linda (Coletti) Therrien.
David was pre deceased by his parents Richard Therrien and Joanne Vaillancourt. He is survived by his sister Rachel (Therrien) Kirker (Chris Smith), brother and best friend Larry Therrien (Laurie Underwood), nieces Nicole Krys (Mario), and Jamie Therrien, great nephews Noah Krys and Alex Krys, Great great niece Ella, and many cousins.
