Eric Wold


Enosburg Falls – Eric ‘Rick’ Lars Wold of Enosburg Falls passed away at his home just before his 65th birthday.

Rick was born on March 10, 1959 in Stoneham, MA, the son of C. Arthur Wold and E. Louise (Martin) Wold.

Rick was Co-Salutatorian when he graduated from Bellows Free Academy – Fairfax in 1977.

Rick received a degree in Psychology from Lyndon State College in 1998.

In the early 1980’s Rick worked in the Food and Beverage industry at various restaurants like The Salty Dog, Finbars, and Dockside Cafe to name a few.

Then for many years Rick could be heard on the radio at various stations such as WRUV, WDOT, WSNO and WNKV in Vermont. He was also music director at a few stations during his years there. He always enjoyed his Live DJ side gig keeping a very extensive CD and Vinyl collection.

Rick eventually moved into Social Service work with roles at the American Cancer Society, Vermont Cares, Northeast Kingdon Youth Services and Age Well.

He is survived by his sisters Marjorie (Wold) Ellsworth (and husband John of Farifax), and Karen E.  (Wold) Stetson of Westford, his sister-in-law Dorothy (Dyson) Wold, his nieces and nephew: Nancy (Stetson) Barrows, Tim Stetson, Carleen (Wold) Amasya, Beth (Ellsworth) Jasinski and Joanne Ellsworth and their spouses and children.

He was predeceased by his parents C. Arthur Wold and E. Louise Wold, his brother Carl A. Wold Jr and his brother-in-law Ralph T. Stetson III.

We will miss having him at the card table as we play our long family card games of Zioncheck and Hand & Foot. One of his favorite quotes is: “Family is like a deck of cards. Deal with it!”

In addition, we will always try to remember the advice in his email signature: “- Be Safe, Be Happy, Be Excellent To Each Other...”

Plans are being made to have a Celebration of Life for Rick in June when distant family will be able to attend.

Obituary for Joshua Walter Wilson Sears

Early Monday morning, February 5, 2024, hours before sunrise our sweet, wonderful Josh was called home to be with our Lord Jesus. Josh passed suddenly of heart complications and diabetes.
Born in Salem, Massachusetts on Oct. 25, 1977, to Cynthia (Stewart-Sears) Kane and the late Walter A. Sears jr., Joshua later became a big brother to his best friend Jeremiah when he was born just 3 years later.
The family made their home in Fairfax, Vermont where the boys attended and graduated from Bellows Free Academy in Fairfax. Upon Joshua’s graduation in 1995, he went on to continue his education at Champlain College in Burlington, Vt.
Joshua was an avid New England Patriots fan as well as a Boston Red Sox fan. He loved to collect comic books, he loved superheroes, Lego’s and building puzzles. He also enjoyed many hours on the baseball field as a child.
Joshua was also a wonderful foster brother to more than 100 children throughout his childhood. Some of them becoming honorary brothers and sisters. He would do anything for anyone and loved his family and friends fiercely. Anyone who has had the honor of knowing Joshua, would absolutely agree.
Although all these things were of great importance to Josh, nothing compared to the pride and the joys of his life, his children; Mariah (23), Drew (20) and Baylie (11). He just beamed with pride over them all.
In Dec. 2021, he became engaged to his best friend Tanna (the love of his life) whom he has gone on to share 4 wonderful years with. He has become a father figure to her girls Carley and Kayla, and a proud “papa” to Leah whom he simply adored.
Joshua leaves behind his mother; Cynthia (Stewart-Sears) Kane of Kissimmee, Fl., his brother; Jeremiah Sears and his wife Tatiana of Harmony, FL., and niece Thaina. His fiancé and love of his life, Tanna Hane of Lakeland, Fl., his children Mariah and Baylie of Alabama, and his son Drew of Vermont. He also leaves his (stepchildren) Carley, Kayla, Dan, and granddaughter Leah. In addition to his wonderful family, he too leaves behind his “honorary” brother and sisters; Ade Kassim, Raylene Barkley, and Jaida Forsey. He also leaves behind his many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Joshua was preceded in death by his father; Walter Sears Jr., his maternal grandparents Phyllis (Chisholm) Stewart, and Wilson Hurlbert, his paternal grandparents Harriet (Ramsdell) Sears and Walter Sears Sr. as well as his Aunt Joyce and Uncle Richard.
We invite you to join us at Osceola Memorial Gardens, 3175 Pleasant Hill Rd., Kissimmee, Fl. 34746, on Sunday, February 11, 2024, from 5pm-9pm. A service will take place at 6pm.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made In Joshua’s name to the AMERICAN DIABETES FOUNDATION.

Fletcher

Gary "Sam" Robert Broe, a beloved husband, father, brother, and friend, passed away on February 9, 2024. Born on September 8, 1952, in Burlington, Vermont, Sam led a life filled with love and touched the hearts of all who knew him.

Sam graduated from BFA Fairfax in 1972, beginning a lifelong journey marked by dedication and hard work. He joined Velan Valve and became an integral part of their team, forging deep and lasting friendships along the way. Sam's commitment to his work was matched only by his loyalty to those around him. His coworkers became like family to him as he fostered relationships that spanned decades.

Those who had the privilege of knowing Sam will remember him for his warm personality and unwavering loyalty. If you we lucky enough to be considered his friend, you were undoubtedly considered family. His kindness knew no bounds as he selflessly extended a helping hand whenever it was needed. Sam's caring nature made an indelible impact on the lives he touched.

Outside of work and during his retirement, Sam found solace in various hobbies and interests. One of his greatest joys was smoking meat—a skill he proudly shared with friends and family during countless gatherings. He also cherished moments spent fishing, finding tranquility in the stillness of nature. Additionally, Sam enjoyed wood working alongside his dear friend Dave Day and spent many delightful hours perfecting their craft together. But above all else, he was an ardent fan of the Boston Red Sox and faithfully followed their every game throughout the season.

In his personal life, Sam was devoted to his family. He is survived by his loving wife Ann Broe, who shared in the joyous moments and supported him during challenging times. Together they built a strong foundation rooted in love and understanding that will continue to inspire those around them. Sam's love and admiration of his "Annie" was endless.

Sam leaves behind two children who brought immeasurable happiness to his life—Craig and his wife Molly, and Samantha Broe. He was a dedicated and loving father who instilled in his children values of compassion, resilience, and determination. This was evident in his "coaching career" of little league and softball. Sam's genuine love for his grandchildren—Lyle, Gabriel, and Ophelia—knew no bounds. He cherished every moment spent with them and took great pride in watching them grow.

Sam will also be greatly missed by his brother Greg and his partner Cindy, as well as his sister-in-laws Vicky,  Laurie, Pat Broe, Kathy Murray, and husband Mike. His memory will forever remain in the hearts of his brother-in-law Roy Raymond, brother-in-law John Cross, and a multitude of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Sam is reunited in eternal peace with his parents Nellie and Reginald Broe Sr., as well as his siblings Reginald, Jr., Jeffrey, Bert, Michael, and Eleanor. Their memories will forever be cherished by those who loved them.

The celebration of Sam's life will take place at Fletcher Grange in Fletcher on February 17, 2024. The service will commence at 11:00 am and offer an opportunity for all who knew him to come together to share their memories and find solace in one another's presence. It will truly be a testament to the impact he had on so many lives. The Celebration of Life attendees are encouraged to wear Red Sox attire and will be pot luck.

The legacy Sam leaves behind is one of kindness, love, and unwavering support. His absence will undoubtedly be deeply felt by all those who had the privilege of knowing him. As we gather to celebrate his life, let us remember the joy he brought into our lives and honor him by carrying on his legacy of love and compassion.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to a charity for the betterment of Vermont Fish and Wildlife.

 As we bid farewell to Gary "Sam" Robert Broe—a kind, loving, and caring person—let us find comfort in the knowledge that his spirit will forever remain with us. May he rest in eternal peace, knowing that his love will continue to guide and inspire us all.

Alfred "Mac" Varney McLane, Jr.
September 21, 1931 — January 1, 2024
Milton
Emblem
Alfred “Mac” Varney McLane Jr, 92, of Milton died peacefully at home early New Year’s Day 2024 surrounded by loving family. Alfred was born September 21, 1931, in Colchester, VT to Alfred Varney McLane Sr. and Florence Winona (Huntley).

Mac spent his early years in Fairfax, VT, where he attended Bellows Free Academy and graduated in 1949. After high school he attended Norwich University, majoring in Mechanical Engineering. Upon completion of his degree, Mac was commissioned a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Army. On May 29th, 1954, Alfred married the love of his life, Betty Joyce (Manley), of Milton.

Mac and Betty headed south shortly thereafter, where they established their first home in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. While there, Mac was stationed at Fort Knox, serving as a small arms instructor at the Armored School for troops deploying to Korea and for which he was awarded the National Defense Service Medal. In March 1956, Mac resigned his Military commission and headed to Detroit, Michigan to work as a Mechanical Engineer for the Ford Motor Company. While there, Mac and Betty’s first child was born.

Their time in Michigan, however, was short lived, as the longing to be near family and their enjoyment of outdoor activities offered by their home state drew them back to their roots. Alfred and Betty settled their now growing family in Milton and built their long-term home on a parcel of land on Betty’s parent’s family farm. Mac spent the remainder of his career working as a Project Engineer in the Armament and Electrical Systems Department at General Electric Company in Burlington Vermont.

While growing up, Mac developed a love for outdoor activities, especially hunting, fishing, and trapping, which he enjoyed doing with his father and beloved younger brother “Win”.  Mac’s passion for hunting and fishing were passed onto his children and grandchildren and he delighted in sharing their success. Mac also enjoyed hobbying as a bee keeper, providing the family the occasional enjoyable treat.

Together Alfred and Betty raised 4 children. Mac really loved his family and proudly shared with others what his kids, grandkids, and great grandkids were doing. Alfred loved sports and he and Betty regularly attended and cheered on their family during sporting events.

During most summers Mac took the family to Lake Champlain, where everyone enjoyed swimming, fishing, boating, and water skiing at the family “camp”. This love of the water also caused Mac and Betty to haul their kids to Florida most spring breaks to escape the cold Vermont winters. Their love of Florida eventually resulted in them purchasing a 2nd home in Englewood and spending several subsequent winters there.

Mac involved himself in many community activities and served on the Milton school board and as an Assistant Scoutmaster. He was an active member of the American Legion and the Masons.

Alfred was preceded in death by his parents, Alfred and Florence McLane Sr., by his brother, Winfred “Win” McLane, brothers-in-Law: John Fitzgerald and Frank Bullis, sisters-in-law: Jane Fitzgerald and Nancy Bullis and lifelong friend Armand Martin.

In addition to his wife of nearly 70 years, Betty (Manley), he is survived by his children: Michael McLane (Emma) of Mesa Arizona, Scott McLane (Melodie) of Georgia Vermont, Kelly Paquin (Cal) of Milton Vermont, Matthew McLane (Sharlene) of Albuquerque New Mexico;

Grandchildren: Michael McLane (Amber Courtney), Vanessa Dennis (David), Kayleigh McLane, Joshua McLane (Cathy), Justin McLane (Megan), Caleb McLane (Ryleigh), Collin McLane, Shannon Rivard (Bryan), Lindsey Preston, Christopher Preston (Allie), Amanda McLane (Alek Trae Lucero), Brendan McLane;

Great Grandchildren: Dakota Dennis, Colton Dennis, Lauren, Lucas McLane, John McLane, Sophia McLane, Eleanor McLane, Isla Rivard, Simon Rivard, Maren Rivard, Etta Preston, Parks Preston and numerous nieces and nephews.

Brother-in-law: James Manley Jr. and  two sisters-in-law: Lorraine Manley and Joyce McLane.

And Mac’s four-legged companion: Murphy, the cat.

The family appreciates the care provided to our husband and father by our live-in caregiver Jennifer Fletcher and the special care provided by the staff of The Arbors in Shelburne, we would also like to thank UVM Home Health and Hospice for their care.

Mac’s visiting hours for family and friends will be Friday January 5th, 2024 from 5 pm to 7 pm at Minor Funeral Home in Milton, Vermont. A “Celebration of Life” service will be held Saturday, January 6th, 2024, at 11 am at the Milton United Church.

In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to your favorite charity of choice in Mac’s memory.
