Bertha Louise (Boudreau) Maillet

Bertha Louise (Boudreau) Maillet, 78, of Nashua, NH, died peacefully at her home on Saturday, November 19, 2022. God took her to eternal life with Him as she was surrounded by her loving family.  She was the beloved wife of Aurele Maillet with whom she shared 57 years of marriage.

Louise’s family, extended family and friends meant everything to her. She enjoyed cooking for them; her special desserts were penuche fudge and chocolate pineapple pie, which everyone loved.
