Somersworth – Roland C. (Ron) Soucy, Jr. passed away peacefully on August 14 ^th with his wife, Pat, and his golden retriever, Teddy, by his side.

Ron was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, and attended schools in the Worcester area. He was the son of Constance D. (Ramsey) Soucy and Roland C. Soucy, Sr.

He served four years in the Army National Guard. Although Ron worked in sales and manufacturing most of his career, his favorite job was working with animals, as co-owner of Animal Friends Pet Sitting. His love for animals showed in the way he cared for his pet customers as if they were his own.

In his younger days, Ron won several roller skating competitions, and he would often reminisce about how much fun he had dancing on roller skates. He was particularly fond of going out to eat and playing cards with dear friends. Ron enjoyed going on fishing and hunting trips. He also loved going to Cancun and other beach vacation spots with his wife. Ron will be greatly missed.

Ron is survived by his wife of 35 years, Pat (Zrimsek) Soucy, his sister, Lynn Soucy, his children, Kevin Soucy and Karen Martin, grandchildren, Christopher Soucy and Kimberly Soucy, several nieces and nephews, and many very special friends.
