Bertrand M. Laflamme Sr.

WEST STEWARTSTOWN – Bertrand M. Laflamme, Sr., 73, of West Stewartstown, died late on Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024, at the Catholic Medical Center in Manchester after a brief illness. Bert was born on July 27, 1950, in Sherbrooke, Quebec, to Gaston and Pauline (Lemay) Laflamme. Bert has had many different jobs. He worked as a Foreman for Laflamme Trucking and Sons. He also worked for various loggers in the area. Most recently he worked as a delivery man for Ideal Auto Supply. Bert loved his “work family” and all the customers that he delivered parts to. Bert was well known by his family and friends for many things--his smile, his wave, his famous sayings and chants, the love for the outdoors, his love for food, his memories of logging and seeing big trees, the pride of his house and surroundings, eating crepes with the grandchildren, cutting his firewood, feeding the birds, conversations with family and friends, drinking warm Bud Lights with a dash of salt, T-Top Mustang rides, time spent with Sharon jeeping, sitting under the carport, trips to Canada for pizza-ghetti, curd cheese, and Canadian ice cream. He leaves behind his life partner of 30 years, Sharon Young; two sons, Bertrand Laflamme, Jr.(Angela) and Steve Laflamme; three step-daughters, Megan Prehemo (Jeff), Jessica Laflamme (Craig), and Jennifer Rancourt (Jesse); ten grandchildren, Cole, Isabelle, Sawyer, Olivia, Carter, Hannah, Braydon, Aubrie, Cade, and Beckett; siblings Diane Sowell (Edward), Danny Laflamme (Danielle), Louise Nichols (Andy); the Young family, and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents Pauline and Gaston Laflamme, and siblings Gaetan Laflamme and Sylvie Rouleau. There are no public calling hours. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, Jan. 20, 2024, at 11 a.m. at the Farnham United Memorial Church in Pittsburg. A graveside interment will be held later in 2024 in St. Albert’s Cemetery. Memorial contributions may be made in Bert’s name to a charity of one’s choice. Condolences may be offered on-line by going to www.jenkinsnewman.com.
