William "Bill" Sipe

William "Bill" Sipe, 65, of Concord, New Hampshire, passed away peacefully on January 16, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones. Born on February 17, 1959, in Derry, NH, Bill was the son of William and Norine Sipe. He graduated from Goffstown High School in 1977, and later attended Kent State University, achieving his bachelor’s degree in business, and then SNHU where he received his MBA. 

Bill was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Carol Sipe, and loved the life he built with her and their two dogs. He is also survived by his brother, Don Sipe and his wife, Mary; his sisters, Patricia Sipe and Nancy Lorenz; father-in-law Marc Couture and partner Jean Soucy; brother-in-law Scott Couture; sister-in-law Tracey Fitts and husband Michael; as well as many nieces, nephews, friends and lots of family, who will miss him dearly. 

A lifelong New Englander, Bill had a deep affection for Boston sports, with a particular love for the Celtics and Red Sox. His enthusiasm for these teams was contagious, and he could often be found cheering them on, enjoying the highs of their victories and the comradery of fellow fans. Bill’s love of sports was matched only by his passion for rock music, which was a constant soundtrack in his life. Whether it was classic rock, hard rock, or something in between, he had an unyielding appreciation for the genre and could always be found tuning in to his favorite bands. 

Bill’s warmth, generosity, and unwavering loyalty to his family and friends will be remembered by all who knew him. He had a kind heart, a sharp wit, and a spirit that could light up a room. He leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and countless fond memories.

A celebration of Bill’s life will be held at Bedford Event Center, 379 S River Rd, Bedford, NH, on January 22, 2025, from 4-7 PM, for those who would like to come and share memories or stories of Bill.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Pope Memorial SPCA or the American Heart Association.

 Bill may be gone, but his love for his family, his passion for life, and his love of Boston sports and rock music will live on in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the Cremation Society of New Hampshire.
