PORTLAND - John Christopher Delcourt, 66, of Windham, Maine, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, at Maine Medical Center with family by his side. He was born on December 18, 1958, the youngest child of the late Roland B. and Helen P. (Leclair) Delcourt. He attended local schools, graduating from Westbrook High School in 1977. He enlisted in the United States Air Force in November 1979 and was honorably discharged in November 1983.

He married Lorena L. (Brett) Delcourt on June 8, 1985. They were blessed with daughter Racheal P. Delcourt and granddaughter Taylor L. Grattelo. Any time spent with his family and his faithful dog Blaze was a good day. In his spare time, John loved gardening, especially growing beautiful roses, and enjoying nature, particularly walking in the woods, camping, fishing, and ice fishing.
He is survived by his loving wife, Lorena, his beloved daughter Racheal and her partner Devan Rodrigue of Limington, and his adored granddaughters Taylor Grattelo and Lilliana Webber. In addition, John is survived by his brothers Michael Delcourt (Kathy) and Thomas Jeffrey Delcourt, and his sister Deborah Pinette (Paul).
