Renald W. Binette Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Renald (Ron) W. Binette, 80, passed away peacefully on May 1, 2017 following an evening surrounded by his family. We are grateful for Ron’s relentless determination in fighting heart disease following a heart attack a few years ago. For these additional precious few years he gave us, we remain eternally grateful. Born March 28, 1937 in Lewiston, Maine the son of Lorenzo and Annette (Paradis) Binette. Ron was educated in Lewiston’s St. Peters and St. Dom’s High schools until he left to serve overseas as a medic in the U.S. Army. Upon returning from the service, he married Rolande C. Pelletier and together they remained in Lewiston having three children, Roger, Irene & Paul. Ron was employed in local shoe shops until he found his niche as a Drug & Alcohol Counselor. Over the past decades, Ron’s patience and understanding has helped many lost souls find their way back home. As life happens sometimes, Ron and Rolande parted ways after 16 years. Ron continued raising his children alone and years later met and married the apple of his eye, Marilyn (Mal) Desrochers. Together for over 30 years, Ron and Mal were blessed with sharing life’s treasures to include fun at camp with Ted and Evelyn, traveling to Alaska and enjoyed welcoming many grandchildren and great grandchildren into their lives.
