Lucille A Morneau

Lucille A. Morneau, 92, died peacefully on Saturday, December 27, 2025 at Avita of Stroudwater, in Westbrook, Maine, where she had resided since August 2025. Lucille was a lifelong resident of Berlin, NH, until 2021 when she moved to Stroudwater Lodge Assisted Living in Westbrook, Maine with her sister, Pauline, and brother-in-law, Hubert Bouchard.

The daughter of Dorilda (Pelletier) and Joseph Morneau, Lulu (as she was known by family and friends) was born on December 14, 1933. She was the youngest of the twelve Morneaus and the last surviving sibling.

A graduate of Notre Dame High School, she was a lifelong member of St. Joseph/Good Shepherd Parishes. Her entire working career was at Public Service Company of New Hampshire, where she was a loyal employee who developed many close and long-standing friendships with co-workers.

Summers at the family camp in Maine were special for Lulu, since she could do some of the things she loved—swimming, taking long walks, and hopping into the rowboat for a long row across the lake. In her younger years, she also enjoyed cross-country skiing and cycling. She had fond memories of travels both in this country and abroad.

She treasured time spent with her brothers and sisters, and she cared deeply about her nieces and nephews and their children, enjoying the celebration of graduations, weddings, and the arrivals of new members of the extended Morneau family.

Members of her family include two of her nieces, Ann and Amy Bouchard, who provided care and support for her during her period of declining health. Lulu also leaves behind a legacy of many other nieces and nephews and their families.

Lulu was predeceased by her sisters, Therese Morneau, Cecile Parent, Jeannette Pinette, Pauline Bouchard, and by her brothers Armand, Roland, Albert, Rene, Philip, Edgar (Charlie), and Robert (Bob).

The family wishes to thank the staff at Compassus Hospice and Avita of Stroudwater for their compassionate care.

There will be no public visiting hours. A graveside service and interment will be held at St. Anne’s Cemetery in the spring.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Lulu’s memory to Berlin & Coos County Historical Society, PO Box 52, Berlin, NH 03570.

Stewart K. White

Stewart K. White, lifelong resident of Cascade Hill, passed away unexpectedly at his home on January 27, 2026. Stewart was born in Berlin, New Hampshire, on September 4, 1953 to Richard and Emelda “Skippy” (Bigl) White. He attended St. Benedict Catholic School and was a 1971 graduate of Gorham High School. He was also a member of the Berlin Maroons hockey team in the 1970-1980's, traveling yearly to Lake Placid with his friends and teammates.

After earning several welding certificates, Stewart devoted 42 years to the Berlin paper mills, where he was known for the pride he took in his work. Upon retirement from the mill, he joined the welding instructor team at White Mountains Community College, where he mentored future welders and left a lasting impact on many students through his patience, skill, and guidance.

Stewart’s greatest accomplishment was his family, whom he adored and cherished with his whole heart. He treasured time spent with his grandchildren, teaching them how to “frog hunt” and how to roam the woods safely—sharing not only outdoor skills, but confidence, curiosity, and a respect for nature.

An avid outdoorsman, Stewart spent hours each day in the woods with his beloved dog, Remi. Together they were a remarkable bird-hunting pair. From childhood, Stewart’s life revolved around fishing, hunting, boating, and exploring the outdoors of Wentworth Location. His lifelong connection to the area eventually led him to build his dream camp, where he spent more than 30 years “vacationing,” a place that brought him great peace and joy.

Softball was another true passion in Stewart’s life. Throughout his coaching career, including both baseball and softball, he took great pride in the relationships he built and the talent he helped instill in countless players. His influence extended far beyond the field, shaping young athletes through encouragement, discipline, and respect.

Stewart is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Claire (Bourque) White; his daughter Holly and her husband Matthew Soprano; his mother Skippy White; his sister Marsha Morneau and her husband Charlie; his two beloved grandchildren, Luca and Aria; and several nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his father, Richard White, in 2012.

Stewart will be remembered for his devotion to family, his loyalty to his friends, his love of the outdoors, his dedication to the welding trade, and the many lives he touched as a mentor, coach, and friend. He will be greatly missed by all.

A Funeral Service will be held on Friday, January 30, 2026 at 10am at the Bryant Funeral Home, 180 Hillside Ave., Berlin. The family will receive relatives and friends on Thursday, Jan. 29th from 2-4 & 6-8pm. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in his memory be made to BHS Athletic Dept., Attn: Softball, 550 Willard St., Berlin, NH, 03570. Memories and condolences may be shared online at www.bryantfuneralhome.net.

Roger J Moreau

Roger J. “Woger” Moreau, 80, of Berlin, passed away at his home on January 19, 2026. He was born in Berlin on November 14, 1945, the son of the late Clarence J. (CJ) and Doris Y. Moreau, and was a lifelong resident of Berlin. He was a proud U.S. Army veteran, having served his country in both Korea and Germany.

Roger was employed over the years by Brown Company, Isaacson Structural Steel, Berlin City as a driver, and most recently Tractor Supply. He was a man who found freedom on two wheels, rarely happier than when riding his motorcycle with the open road ahead of him. A lifelong car enthusiast, he took great pride in the vehicles he owned and meticulously cared for, enjoying both their craftsmanship and the stories behind them, and he had a special talent for making any vehicle more eye-catching than what he considered boring factory stock. In his younger years, he also had a great affinity for both boating and fishing.

In retirement, Roger immersed himself in both technology and craftsmanship. He spent countless hours in his garage woodworking, where he meticulously crafted cutting boards and picture frames that were both beautiful and practical, which will continue to be cherished by family. He also pursued his interests in CNC machines, photography, electronics, drones, cameras, and everything Apple, always eager to learn, experiment, and stay current with the latest innovations. His passions reflected his patience, skill, and appreciation for fine workmanship, leaving behind memories as enduring as the things he built.

He is survived by his children, Cindy “CJ” Valliere and her husband Scott of Berlin, and Ryan Gagnon and his girlfriend Crystal of Berlin; his grandchildren, Shaeleigh, Nolan, Addisyn, Broedy, Cadence, and Daniel; his sister, Stella Moreau of Hooksett, NH; and his former wife and close friend, Jan Moreau.

Per Roger’s request, there will be no services. Interment will be in the St. Anne Cemetery in Berlin at a later date. The Bryant Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements. Online guestbook at www.bryantfuneralhome.net.
