Jean-Paul Ducharme, 81, of Manchester, passed away on Monday, May 9, 2016 in the comfort of his home, surrounded by his loving family. Born in St. Elizabeth de Warwick, Quebec, Canada, he was the son of the late Alfred and Judith (Thibodeau) Ducharme. Raised and educated in Canada, Jean-Paul relocated to New Hampshire in the 1950s. Jean-Paul met and married the love of his life, the late Evelyn Ducharme, and raised a beautiful family. A dedicated husband and father, Jean-Paul's family was paramount in his life. He loved spending time with his family and especially cherished time spent with his family in Canada. An avid sports fan, Jean-Paul always cheered for the New York Yankees and the Montreal Canadiens. Jean-Paul enjoyed visiting farms and attending auctions of Holstein cows. In his spare time, Jean-Paul delighted in long drives to the beach, the mountains, or wherever the road led him. Jean-Paul will be best remembered for his generous heart and love of family. Jean-Paul is survived by his two daughters, Jill Teahan and husband Brian of Nutting Lake, MA, and Nancy Smith and husband Steven of Litchfield, NH; granddaughter, Deborah Teahan; two sisters, Lucie Fortier and Claudette Ducharme, both of Canada; brother, Claude Ducharme of Canada; and extended family and friends. In addition to his parents, Jean-Paul was predeceased by his wife, Evelyn (Hanson) Ducharme, with whom he shared 23 years of marriage; and his five siblings, Norman Ducharme, Jacqueline Ducharme, Lise Ducharme, Yvon Ducharme, and Nicole Houle. ARRANGEMENTS: His Visitation will be held in the Phaneuf Funeral Home, 243 Hanover St., Manchester, on Thursday, May 12 from 2:00 to 4:00P.M. and 7:00 to 9:00P.M.

I knew Jean-Paul through work at Verizon. I was so saddened to learn of his passing. He was always so warm, kind, soft-spoken and had a smile. It was always a joy to see and speak to him everyday. To Nancy I would like to say as I came to realize when my dear father passed, he is so within you. I know not in the physical but branded deep in the fibers and memory of you he will never be gone. I pray you find the comfort of that and take him with you always. I praise Jesus for that blessing! Deepest heartfelt sympathy to the family for your great loss.

Dad,

I am overwhelmed with sadness and I can't believe you are gone. I can't imagine never hearing your voice or laugh or even seeing your smile. I wish that I had gotten to tell you one last time that I love you! I wish I could hear you say you Love me! I want you to know that I think you are a very brave man to have fought for as long as you did! I believe it helped that you had Jill who was one of your biggest cheerleaders that fought tirelessly right beside you! You were loved Dad and you always will be. You will live in our hearts forever. I am glad that you are up in Heaven with Mom, she has been patiently waiting for you to dance! I love you with all my heart and I don't quite know if I will ever feel the same.
Rest in peace Dad! ❤

I want to thank god for my father in law, I know he will not be able to read this as he has gone to heaven to be with Mom. Dad gave me my amazing and caring wife and sister. I never got to thank Dad for his gift but I hope he knew. My favorite times with Dad where the rides we took to the ocean and we would get out and walk the cliffs. I will miss dad but I know Mom needed him home.

Jill and Nancy, on behalf of my mother and family, I would like to offer you and your families our sincere condolences. I will always have fond memories of Jean-Paul, who showed great kindness (and endless patience, as I kept pestering him with questions about baseball, all those years ago). Though we cannot be with you in person, we are thinking of you in this difficult time.
Repose en paix, Jean-Paul.
