Obituary of Michael A. Lambert
Mike A. Lambert, 70, of Danielson, Connecticut, passed away peacefully on April 28, 2026, at his home, surrounded by his loving family.
Born on September 15, 1955, in Putnam, Connecticut, Mike was the son of the late Kenneth Lambert Sr. and Theresa (Benjamin) Lambert. He grew up in North Grosvenordale and graduated from Tourtellotte High School in 1973. He went on to build a long and dedicated career, beginning at Jacob’s Rubber and later at Putnam Plastics, where he worked as a process engineer for 28 years.
Mike was known for his kindness, generosity, and unmistakable sense of humor. If there was a moment that could be improved by a “corny dad joke,” Mike was already one step ahead. He had a way of making people feel comfortable, valued, and—more often than not—laughing.
A devoted Red Sox and Knicks fan, Mike found some of his greatest joy in life’s simple moments, especially fishing with his late brother, Mark. Those quiet days by the water reflected who he was at his core—steady, patient, and deeply loyal to those he loved.
He took great pride in both his work and his family, serving as a mentor to many coworkers and earning a reputation as the “go-to” person—someone you could always count on, no matter the situation. At home, that same dependability made him the foundation his family leaned on, always putting their needs before his own.
Of all his roles, Mike was most proud to be a grandfather. His grandchildren brought him endless joy, and he treasured every moment spent with them.
Mike’s life was defined not by grand gestures, but by consistent love, quiet strength, and the countless ways he showed up for others. His impact will be felt for generations by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 36 years, Suzanne Lambert; his daughter Jennifer and her husband Jason Goyette; and his cherished grandchildren, Emily Goyette and Michael Goyette. He is also survived by his sister Donna Witkowski (Joseph), sister Sandra Walmsley (Joseph), brother Kenneth Lambert Jr. (Mary), and sister Tina Parreira, along with many nieces and nephews, great-nieces and nephews, and extended family members.
He was predeceased by his father Kenneth Lambert Sr., his mother Theresa Lambert, his sister Linda White, his brother Mark Lambert, and his stepson Roger Morin Jr.
Services will be announced at a later date.
