Doris May Michaud, 93, passed away peacefully at home on December 8, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. She was born on September 8, 1931, in Tamworth, New Hampshire, to Herbert and Addie Grace Palmer. Doris, known as "Dot" to her friends and family, fondly remembered growing up in Ossipee, NH, where she was one of nine siblings.
After graduating from Kennett High School in 1950, where she was proudly recognized as “Best Dressed,” Dot worked for several local businesses, including Franksons Furniture and Beede Electric. However, her greatest joy came from spending time with her family and friends. She loved traveling, celebrating special occasions, and especially cherished Christmas, her favorite holiday. Dot's life was marked by her deep devotion to her family. She often joked that her hobbies were cleaning and hosting family gatherings.
She married her beloved husband of 53 years, Alfred Michaud, in 1966. Together, they had two daughters, Kathy (James) Soucy of Dunbarton, NH, and Laurie (Patrick) Balch of Sunapee, NH. Dot also had four children from a previous marriage: Betty (Leo) Aubertin of Pittsfield, NH, Sandra Deno of Dunbarton, NH, Richard Plummer of Hopkinton, NH, and Jane Scattergood of Meredith, NH. In addition, she had three stepchildren: the late Alfred Michaud Jr. of Colorado Springs, CO, Brenda (Robert) Howard of Hillsborough, NH, and the late Dennis Michaud of Albuquerque, NM.
Dot is survived by her sisters: Eleanor Taylor of Bradford, VT, Arlene Satterfield of Ocala, FL, Jean McCormick of Moultonborough, NH, and Mary Williams of Freedom, NH. She was also the proud grandmother of 16 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, and 2 great-great-grandchildren.
A memorial service to celebrate Dot’s life will be held on January 4, 2025, at 11:00 AM at the Cremation Society of New Hampshire, 172 King Street, Boscawen, NH. A luncheon for family and friends will follow at Alan’s Restaurant, 133 North Main Street, Boscawen, NH.
