Robert Lamontagne Obituary
He was born in Manchester on July 11, 1941, the son of Ovide and Aloysia (Lemelin) Lamontagne. He lived in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, for a number of years prior to returning to New Hampshire in 1981. He was a parishioner of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Church in Rochester.
Dr. Lamontagne was a professor of political science at Elizabethtown College for 15 years. He also worked for Advanced Systems, an educational testing service, and was a local realtor.
He was proud to carry on a family tradition, living on the Lamontagne Homestead and farm here in Rochester which was purchased by his family in 1891. He was extremely proud of his French Canadian ancestry and was fluent in French. He was a former member of the Richelieu Club and the Rochester Pigeon Racing Club.
Surviving family members include his beloved wife of over 37 years, Virginia (Clavelli) Lamontagne of Rochester; his children: Anne-Louise Simon and her husband, Dominique of Paris, France, Colette Lamontagne of Arlington, MA, Rachele Lamontagne of Stratham, and Robert E. Lamontagne II of Shreveport, LA; his grandchildren, Gabrielle Lamontagne, Alexandre and Julie Simon; a brother, Ovide Lamontagne of Manchester: three sisters: Theresa Lamontagne of Charlotte Harbor, FL, Yolande Caron of Manchester, and Sr. Guy Marie Lamontagne of Exeter, England; as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Visitation at H.J. Grondin & Son Funeral Home, 177 North Main Street, Rochester will be Friday from 6 to 8 p.m. A Mass of Christian Burial will be Saturday at 11 a.m. at Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Church, Rochester. Burial will be later this spring in Holy Rosary Cemetery, Rochester.

To Aunt Virginia, cousins Anne-Louise, Collette, Rachel and Robby:
We are sure we're just two in thousands whom Uncle Robert touched with his boundless compassion for nature and people. He gave absolutely no energy to feeling bad, despite his extremely ill condition. Instead, he brimmed with curiosity about our lives, egged us on, and inspired us with stories.
There is no easy measure of a man's impact on this world, but the love and respect Uncle Bob knew from so many people in so many places would be the envy of anyone. We feel for you all and will remember Uncle Bob always, and with love.

All our love on the passing of Uncle Bob. He was a unique individual who showed an unsurpassed love of family and deep pride in his heritage. He and Virginia also committed themselves to preserving 'the Farm' for future generations, and we appreciate the opportunity to experience this special place with our children.
Our thoughts are with Aunt Virginia, Anne-Louise, Colette, Rachelle, Robbie and their families at this time.
Carmelle and Mark, Jenn and Sam
