Clinton – Kenneth “Pepe’re” R. Lachance, 69, gave up his fight September 23, 2024, with his daughter Nicole and son-in-law Pete Towers by his side at BIDM (Boston, Mass), where he received 20 years of exceptional care.

Kenny was a hard worker. He was a jack of all trades working as a union shipfitter at Bath Iron Works, a mechanic, a welder, and a carpenters union in 1996 to name a few. In his younger years he enjoyed working on fast cars, being at the racetrack, boxing, working with his father in his butcher shop, and creating detailed woodwork. The man could not say no to a lobster, or any seafood dish. Many good memories made ice fishing on Moosehead Lake. His greatest pride was sharing the love and passion for the game of basketball with his granddaughter Jordyn.

He was predeceased by his parents Raymond and Geneva (Cote) Lachance of Winslow, son Craig Joseph Lachance, and brothers Wayne and Raymond Lachance.

Kenny is survived by one brother; daughter Kelly Jo Lachance, Wayne Penney and their families; son Kenneth Hyde, granddaughters Merranda Lachance, Kaula and Jordyn Towers, Jamee Cyr, and Metehya Lachance, with their families; as well as fourteen great-grandchildren.

Kenny has had a lot of friends from a lot of places throughout his life. Our family hopes you can join us celebrating his life on Sunday, October 6, 2024, at the Winslow VFW, at 11:00am, located at 175 Veterans Drive in Winslow.
