Vickie M. Francoeur

Vickie Francoeur (Chase) 62, resident of Manchester, NH, passed away in her home on Thursday, November 30, 2023 after a brief battle with cancer.

She was surrounded by her loving husband Paul, daughter Laura, and brother Fran.

She was born on October 29, 1961 in Naples, Italy and raised by her Pepere and Memere, the late Hector and Elizabeth Chase, whom she loved dearly.

Vickie married Paul Francoeur in 2003 and they made their home in Manchester, NH. She was more than happy to be the central figure in Paul’s life. Anyone that knew them knew that she was the stars in his eyes and that’s all that mattered to her. Together she and Paul created a second family at Café on the Oval in Milford, NH. Vickie had a passion for people and it truly showed in the incredible relationships that she created with her many customers over the years, as well as her employees.  She loved being in the sun and enjoyed early morning coffee talks with Paul. They often traveled to Aruba, Jamaica and other places in the Caribbean. Vickie was her brother Fran’s little big sister, best friend, and favorite roommate. He cooked and she cleaned. Vickie was a loving mom to Laura whom she referred to as mouse. Vickie wasn’t afraid to put her foot down, teach Laura right from wrong and make sure she did her best. Vickie believed in and supported her and was there for her no matter what. In 2021 Vickie became Memere to Aria. She was her princess and their playdates were filled with so many smiles and so much love. Aria wouldn’t leave without a hug from her Memere. Our world was better because Vickie was in it.

Vickie was predeceased by a grandson, Jonathan Chase and a sister, Cheryl Chase.

Vickie is survived by her husband, Paul Francoeur, daughter Laura DesRochers, daughter Sheila Murray and husband Charles, daughter Christine Miller and husband Brian, son Joshua Francoeur and wife Heidi, brother and bestfriend Francis Chase, brother William Chase Jr, brother Roger Demers, granddaughters Aria DesRochers and Grace Miller, grandsons Aiden Miller, Zachary Miller and Damian Murray, favorite nephew Zachary Chase, long time friends Kenny and Kathy Marier, friends and family at Café on the Oval and best companion, her dog Daisy, whom never left her side.
