George Peter Trepanier, 85, of Lakewood Ranch, FL, formerly of Bonita Springs, FL, passed away on August 30, 2021 at Heartland North in Sarasota, FL. He was born May 24, 1936 in Claremont, NH, the son of the late George and Desneiges Trepanier.
After attending Kimball Union Academy in Plainfield, NH, George began taking over the family's business, American Plate Glass Co., Inc. in Claremont, NH. He eventually bought the business from his parents, and ran it successfully for decades, where he was known for his integrity and attention to detail.
George married his wife, Linda, on August 13, 1966. They shared a very special marriage for 50 years. In 2001, George and Linda moved to Bonita Springs, FL where they built their home. They enjoyed traveling, especially cruising. The Caribbean, Europe, Hawai'i, Alaska, and the Holy Land were all places that they explored. He also enjoyed dining, and was always open to trying and sharing new tastes. George was a deeply devoted and loving husband, father, and grandfather. He will always be remembered for his kindness, generosity, and laughter. He was also a host father to a foreign exchange student from Italy who is still in contact with the family today.
Soon after his wife's passing in 2016, George moved to Lakewood Ranch, where he lived with his daughter and her family.
Survivors include his daughter, Kristin Trepanier-Henry and son-in-law, Charles Henry, and his grandchildren, Noah and Isabella Henry.
