Mark A. Roye

Bowdoinham – Mark A. Roye, 63 passed away on Tuesday January 14, 2025 after a brief illness with family at his side.

          He was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on February 24, 1961, a son of Weldon D. and Doris E. (Albanese) Roye.  Mark attended Brunswick schools and served in the United States Army. He was employed as a painter for many years.

          Mark enjoyed music, collecting albums, writing poetry. Mark was a music encyclopedia and could tell you anything you wanted to know about the music of the 70’s and 80’s. He loved watching the Red Sox and Minnesota Vikings play. He lived his life on his own terms for certain but had the biggest heart.  He never fully recovered after losing Suzi, the love of his life(although a pillow to the face may have crossed her mind a time or two). Mark loved animals, especially his dog Brandy.

          He is predeceased by his parents, his daughter Melissa Young Roye, his brother Lorin K. Roye and his longtime girlfriend Suzanne Gauthier.

          He is survived by his sister Dorinda A. Roye of West Bath, two grandsons Jordan and Jaiden of Fairfield, many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.

          A graveside service will be held in the Spring at Riverside Cemetery in Brunswick for Mark and Suzanne to be laid to rest together.  Memorial contributions can be made to the Midcoast Humane Society, 5 Industrial Parkway, Brunswick, 04011.  Arrangements are made by Daigle Funeral Home, 819 High Street, Bath.  Condolences may be made at www.DaigleFuneralHome.com.
