BELMONT ---- Michael James Reneau, 44, of Union Road, passed away on Saturday, July 8, 2023, at Concord Hospital in Concord, NH.
Michael was born on December 26, 1978, in Laconia, the son of James and Avis (Gilman) Reneau.
Mike was a lifelong resident of the Lakes Region growing up in Belmont, and graduating from Belmont High School in 1997. After graduation Mike spent several years as a butcher at the old Walters Market in Laconia. He then went on to work in the construction field for several years.
He enjoyed listening to music, going to concerts, and chilling with his friends and family. He loved being outdoors, enjoying nature, sitting around a camp fire shooting the sh!t with the people he loved, and being out on the water. Mike was a great friend to many.
You could always go to him to celebrate the Highs of life, but could also count on him to be there for you in the lows.
Mike had a very contagious laugh that could make you smile anytime you heard it. He had a heart of gold. He was always there for his friends and loved ones. Another thing ‘Big Mike’, as his friends lovingly called him, was known for was his love of cats. He loved to be home and relaxing with his cat, Sable.
Michael is survived by his brother, Thomas Reneau and his wife Amanda, and their son Tyler of Sanbornton, and his father, James Reneau of Tilton. He leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins, and great friends. He was predeceased by his mother Avis Reneau.
For those who wish, the family suggests that memorial donations be made in Mike’s memory to the New Hampshire Humane Society, PO Box 572, Laconia, NH 03247.
There will be no calling hours.
A Celebration of Life for Mike will be held on Saturday, August 12, 2023, from 4pm-8pm in the event hall at the VFW Laconia Post 1670, 143 Court St, Laconia, NH 03246. The family asks that you bring your favorite dish to share if you are able.
