LACONIA-----John Mark Bolduc passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on May 5, 2018.
John was born in Laconia on November 17, 1963 as the youngest child of Cecile A. (Simoneau) Bolduc and Norman P. Bolduc. He grew up in Belmont and graduated from Belmont High School in 1981. As soon as John could hold a pencil, he began drawing. John’s beautifully intricate landscapes and portraits will be treasured by generations to come. Not only did he have artistic talent with a paint brush, but also with a set of drumsticks in his hands. He spent several years as a drummer in local bands. He had an incredible natural artistic and musical talent that will truly be missed.
As the youngest child and “baby” brother, John’s bright smile and wonderful sense of humor brought great joy to his family. He cared deeply for his parents, maintaining a close bond throughout his life. John was also intimately tied to his siblings who will always remember him as a gentle soul with a huge heart. His warm and amiable nature made him a favorite among his nieces, nephews, and great nieces and nephews, who were drawn to his presence and loved to sit and play or talk with their uncle. He was deeply loved, and his absence is felt profoundly.
He leaves behind his beloved mother, Cecile (Simoneau) Bolduc, his dear siblings Richard Bolduc and wife Lois of Belmont, Karen Burke and husband Tim of Sanbornton, Terry Roberts and husband Roy of Belmont, Kathleen Davis and husband Roger of Alton Bay, and James Bolduc and wife Jessica of Gilmanton. He was the adored “Uncle Johnny” of Christina, Martha, Owen, Jill, Beth, Lindsay, Kristin, Chelsea, Alison, Trask, and Annie and great “Uncle Johnny” of Rachael, Brian, Ryan, Colin, Keegan, William, Madison, Amelia, Reid, Ethan, Bradley, Samuel, Tyler, Lincoln, Juliette, and McAuley. John is predeceased by his father Norman P. Bolduc and brother Monsignor Norman P. Bolduc, Jr.
