Michel Alexander Joseph Rheaume, Sr., 73, of Pavo, passed away on Sunday, September 21, 2025, at his home surrounded by family.

A memorial service will be held at 2:00 PM on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, in the chapel of Baker Funeral Home with Reverend Jim Horne officiating.

The family will receive friends immediately following the service.

Born on March 25, 1952, in Loretteville, Quebec, Canada, he was the son of the late Romeo and Suzanne Watters Rheaume. Michel was a skilled and hardworking carpenter who took great pride in his craft. Self-employed for many years, where his talent, dedication, and attention to detail earned him the respect of coworkers and clients alike.

Outside of work, Michel found joy in the outdoors. He was an avid hunter, fisherman, and camper who loved nothing more than spending time in nature. He was also passionate about cooking and was known for preparing meals that brought people together — always seasoned with love and a touch of his unique charm.

Above all, Michel loved his family deeply. He cherished every moment spent with them and took great pride in their accomplishments. His warmth, sense of humor, and generous spirit will be remembered by all who knew him. Mr. Rheaume was of the Catholic faith.

Mr. Rheaume is survived by his loving wife, Michelle Ann Johnson Rheaume of Pavo; son, Michel Alexander Joseph Rheaume, Jr. and wife Heather of Pavo; daughters, Joanne Rheaume and Christiane Josee Rheaume, both of Pavo; grandchildren, Jaiden De Los Santos, Alfrado Rheaume, Juan J. Sanchez, Yeilin Roblero-Garcia, Jeimie Sanchez, Eva Luna Garcia, Celeste Evans, Owen Evans, Ian Evans, and Aiden Evans; great grandchildren, Arabella Ortiz; son in law, Juan M Sanchez; and brothers and sisters, Claude Rheaume, Josee Rheaume, and Danielle Bruno.
