Carolyn J. Bourcier

Carolyn J. Bourcier (Morin), 83, of Manchester, Connecticut, passed away peacefully at home on March 10, 2026. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Laurent P. Bourcier, Sr. Born in Dartmouth, Massachusetts, to the late Roland and Madeline Morin, Carolyn lived a life centered on family, dedication, and kindness.

She graduated from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and began her career as a fifth-grade teacher at St. Bartholomew School in Manchester, where her passion for helping children learn and grow left a lasting impression. After starting her family, she stepped away from teaching to devote herself fully to raising her children, a role she cherished. Later, she returned to the workforce and enjoyed a 20-year career in banking, where she was respected for her professionalism, strong work ethic, and ability to get things done.

In her later years, Carolyn found great joy in traveling and experiencing new places and cultures. Above all, she treasured her time with family, especially her grandchildren. She was their biggest supporter, rarely missing a sporting event, school activity, or milestone, always cheering them on with pride and love.

She is survived by her loving children, Laurent Bourcier and his spouse Lisa, Madeline Bourcier and her spouse Greg, and Christopher Bourcier and his spouse Trisha; her brother-in-law Ernest Bourcier; her cherished grandchildren, Brendon and Kortney, Alexa and Talon, Juliette, Jason and Maddy, Andrew, Zachary, Evan, and Bryan; great-grandchildren Hannah and Beia; and many nieces, nephews, and friends who will remember her warmth, generosity, and unwavering devotion to her family.
