Gage Rondeau's Obituary
Gage Thomas John Rondeau, 19, of Willington, CT, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, December 30, 2016. He was born in Stafford, CT and raised by grandparents Joe and Ruthann Ferenc of Willington, CT. Gage was a graduate of E.O. Smith High School. Gage was the light and love of Joe and Ruthann’s life, the center of their universe. He was so talented. An avid hockey player from the age of 5 and a formidable adversary on the soccer field for 8 years, Gage excelled in every sport he took on. Basketball, baseball and lacrosse, he played on the field with an unbridled enthusiasm. He was poetry in motion. His impish smile would light up a room, and his loss will leave all who knew him and loved him forever changed, especially his Pap and Gram. Those left with broken hearts include his mother, Jessica Coax of Norwich, CT; father, Mark Rondeau of East Windsor, CT; grandparents, Jerry and Susan Rondeau of Enfield, CT, and Virginia Rondeau of Windsor Locks, CT; brother, Seth; great grandmother, Mary Ferenc; godfathers, Rob Ferenc and Tom Rondeau; godmother, Terry Ferenc; aunts and uncles, Mary and David, Cindy and Rick, Tom and Judy, Ken, Kim, Tom, Paul and Jen, and Teresa and Bob; as well as other extended family members; and many friends.
