Carl Anthony Cormier was born on April 3, 1957 in Keene, NH to parents Marie and Donald Cormier. Carl crossed over to the fairway to heaven to play the 19th hole unexpectedly of natural causes at the age of 63 on January 11, 2021.

Carl was raised predominantly in Swanzey, NH and was a graduate of Monadnock Regional High School where he was the captain of the football team. Carl’s father was an active duty member of the United States Air Force and Carl traveled with his family during his earlier years in life.

Carl was an avid golfer and loved to play in the Pine Grove Tuesday Night Men’s League, Sunday Morning Men’s League and always benefit tournaments, where captains bribed him to join their teams to capture the trophies that would be proudly displayed in their respective clubs!

He loved cooking and grilling for his loved ones most of all. Yearly, you could find him behind the cooker preparing awesome pigs, beef and whatever he could fit in that cooker at Sisti’s, the Elks Camp or other gatherings! He also loved riding his Harley Davidson, deep sea fishing, and nature shows.

Carl was a proud husband, son, brother, brother-in law, father of two, grandfather of nine and uncle of two.
