Alfred “Fred” Norman Dussault, 75, died peacefully on Monday morning, Aug. 22, 2022, at St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua surrounded by his loving family. He is the beloved husband of Carmen R. (Solines) Dussault, with whom he shared 18 years of marriage.

Fred was born in Nashua, New Hampshire, on Sept. 24, 1946, and was the son of the late Emilien Alfred and Rose Lea (Denis) Dussault. He was a longtime resident of Nashua and attended schools in the Nashua School District and was a graduate of Nashua High School with the class of 1966.

Following graduation from high school, he proudly served his country in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War until he was honorably discharged.

For more than 20 years, he was employed as a machinist at Nimco until his retirement.

In his free time, he enjoyed spending time outdoors, fishing and hunting; traveling to various destinations often, but his favorite places to spend time were Ecuador, visiting his wife’s family, and Canada, to visit his extended family. Fred liked to take leisurely walks, and was always ready to try new things, especially when it came to culinary adventures. Above all, his most cherished time was spent with his loving family who will deeply miss him.
