Obituary of Allan Bushey

Allan W. Bushey, February 27, 1955 - November 27, 2018, of Woodstock, CT passed away peacefully, surrounded by the love of his family. He is the son of the late Bernard and Elsie (Shipee) Bushey.

Allan is remembered by all as a man with the steadiest and most generous of hearts. He created and nurtured a vast biological family, adopted family, and extended family; leaving no distinction between. He is a man whose greatness is evident in the Loving bond shared by all he considered family. Allan never spoke of being an example. He simply lived as who he decided to be. As such, he lived as the example which all would benefit by admiring, while never judging any who would need his help. 

Allan was a proud Air Force Veteran who enjoyed golfing, Wednesday night pitch league, and fishing; he always carried a hot coffee. A jack-of-all-trades, Allan was employed as a skilled carpenter for Engineered Construction for the past 20+ years and took pride in becoming a mentor to all who were eager to learn.

Allan is survived by a legacy of family including his wife, Kim Bushey, sons William Gregoire, Israel Bushey, Marc Gregoire, Mason Bushey, Shane Bushey; daughters Nicole Beaudreault, Courtney Metras, Jessica Lambert, Lynsey Bushey; brothers David Bushey and Donald Bushey; grandchildren Anna, Tabitha, Zoey, Kaylee, Zachary, Anthony, Alainah, Brayden, and Zadoc. He was predeceased by his brother, the late Steven Bushey.

Relatives and friends are invited to visit with Allan's family from 5:00 to 7:00 pm on Friday, December 7, 2018 at the Gagnon and Costello Funeral Home, 33 Reynolds Street, Danielson, CT 06239. Share a memory at www.gagnonandcostellofh.com
