Obituary for Edward Vincent LaDouceur
Edward Vincent LaDouceur known by most as "Chef Ed" but known by some very close as "Ed Spaghed", age 46, of North Franklin, passed away unexpectedly on August 15, 2020 at his home in Norwich.
Edward was born in Norwich to Dianne LaDouceur and Gregory Taitt on November 30, 1973. He went to school at Franklin Elementary School and Norwich Technical High School. He was married to Jennifer on August 10 1996. He worked as a chef for over 30 years and was currently employed at the Harp and Dragon for 2 ½ years. His prized possession was his bike. With a contagious laugh and a smile that could light up a room, he loved nothing more than his family, cooking, camping, being outdoors, and his beloved dog Jack.
Edward is preceded in death by his father Gregory Taitt and his grandmothers Nathalie Brown and Lillian Pina.
Edward is survived by his wife and partner of 29 years Jennifer, children Samantha, Troy and Tiffany, and two grandchildren, his mother Dianne, his beloved sister Hope and family including her husband Howard, and children, Amanda, Tyler and Jamar, as well as a younger brother Robert.
Funeral services will be held Monday, August 24 from 11am to 1pm at the Godere Funeral Home in Taftville. Please wear a mask and practice social distancing. There will be a Celebration of Life at 2pm at his sister’s home.
