Marcelle Guth Obituary
Oct. 31, 1938 - Sept. 3, 2025
Marcelle Lavoie Guth, eighty-six, passed away on September 3rd, 2025, in New Haven, Connecticut. Marcelle was born on October 31st, 1938, in Causapscal, Canada, to Ernest and Antoinette Lavoie. She grew up in the province of Quebec, and after marriage, moved to Bethany, Connecticut. Marcelle led the New Britain Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Program for over twenty years, devoting her professional life to the well-being of mothers and children. After retirement, Marcelle worked as a volunteer for the Connecticut Hospice and joined the staff of the Clark Memorial Library in Bethany. Marcelle was known for her love of nature, animals, travel, and theater. Her favorite activity was walking on the trails and around the lakes in Bethany with family and friends. Marcelle leaves behind William, her husband of fifty-seven years, and daughter, Valerie. In addition, she is survived by siblings Marie, Odette, Alice, Georges, sisters-in-law, Ghislaine and Miriam, brother-in-law, Carl, and many nieces and nephews. Marcelle was preceded in death by her parents, siblings, Helene, Henri, Roger, and cousin, Rachel. Memorial services in Connecticut and Quebec will be held at a later date, and the Ralph E. Hull Funeral Home, 161 W. Church St., Seymour, CT 06483, has been entrusted with her arrangements. The family wishes to thank Marcelle's exceptional medical care team in the Neuro Intensive Care Unit at Yale-New Haven Hospital, and chaplain Rabbi Leah Tenenbaum for her emotional support during this difficult time.

To Bill and Valerie:
Over the years, I often thought about all of you. Bill, I worked at Yale Medical School in Communications Media in the 1970s. I recall the great lunches your wife made for you. To this day, her recipe for fudge is my favorite. Valerie, I remember seeing you participate at a function at the Neighborhood Music School. How proud your parents were of you. Marcelle was a great wife and mother.
Please accept my sincerest condolences. May God's embrace bring comfort to all of you during this sorrowful time.

Oh, I am so very sorry to learn of Marcelle's death. We shared many interesting conversations when we worked together at the library. When our schedules changed and we would meet on occasion, we would both tell each other how much we missed each other and our chats. She and I would also converse a little in French. I will miss her.
