1949 – 2023 WATERVILLE - Our caring and loving Suzanne (Sue) Boudin passed away on May 13, 2023, at Maine General Medical Center after a long illness. Sue was a lifelong Maine resident, born on January 4, 1949 in Lewiston Maine, daughter of Constance and Robert LeBlanc, Sr. She attended Sts. Peter and Paul Grammar School, St Dominic Regional High School and received her B.A. from Rivier College, Nashua NH. She married in 1971 and had two sons, André Dumais – wife Alysia of Vernon CT, and Jean Paul Dumais - wife Amanda of Saco ME. In 1982, she married Kenneth Boudin of Waterville, ME, the love of her life. She is survived by her devoted husband Ken, her two sons André and Jean Paul, four grandchildren, Jori – Syracuse NY, Abegail – San José CA, Reagen and Quinn – Vernon CT, and three siblings, Jeannine Maloney, Robert LeBlanc Jr. – wife Diane, and Micheline LeBlanc – husband Thomas DeBoni; stepdaughters Susan Harvey - husband John, Jeannine Clark – husband Randy, stepson Ken Jr – wife Lori, 5 step grandchildren 5 step great grandchildren, and 2 step great great grandchildren. Family meant everything to Sue. One way she expressed that love was through the creation of cross-stitched wall hangings, celebrating family members' weddings and newborn births. She and her husband Ken hosted summer family reunions at their camp on Lake Quantabacook in Searsmont ME. It was always a beautiful family weekend, full of great food, boat rides, swimming, and family tales. In an effort to create family memories, Sue began scrapbooking. After traveling, she would create scrapbooks depicting various travel adventures. Over the 40 years of marriage, Sue and Ken traveled to Australia and New Zealand, California, historic Richmond VA, Nashville TN, Branson MO, Austin and San Antonio TX, Kissimmee and Ft Myers FL. Sister weeks took them to places such as the Shenandoah Valley, historic Virginia and Washington DC, Sedona AZ, New Orleans LA, historic Charleston SC and Savanah GA, and the CA San Francisco Bay area. Some of these trips have been documented through Sue's outstanding scrapbooking. During the COVID pandemic, Sue used her creative skills once again to make over 200 personalized masks for family members and the fellow patients at the DCI dialysis clinic. There was never a challenge too big for Sue. With her organizational skills, she was a quick technology learner and then took on the challenge of teaching others. These organizational skills were also evident in her home and projects. An avid reader, she enjoyed discussing and sharing the books that most appealed to her. It was also a part of the weekly ZOOM conversations with siblings during the COVID pandemic. Sue will be greatly missed by both family and friends. Her family would like to thank the medical teams of the Critical Care and 3 West Units of the Maine General Medical Center for their expertise, care, and medical support. A very special thank you goes out to the staff of DCI (Dialysis Clinic Inc) Fairfield ME for Suzanne's care during the last six years.
