Wayne Leonard Goulet

On Sunday, October 18th, 2026, Wayne Leonard Goulet, a revered Papa, Dad, uncle, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully in his sleep. It is hard to encapsulate the passion, curiosity, creativity, love, spirituality and true life energy that exuded through Wayne’s body in life and then journeyed on one day to join the Great Spirit of the universe. He was one of a kind. He approached life with a unique perspective and created beauty in everything he touched, from the potential of found objects as art forms, to the soil he worked in his elaborate gardens. He breathed an energy into what could be mundane in such a way that it would never be the same. His family and friends formed the compass of his life and he was blessed with years of adventures and camaraderie with those he cherished. He approached each day with gratitude and an open-mindness that allowed him to feel all of life’s ebbs and flows, unafraid. He gave to all that he encountered, never held a grudge, and loved unconditionally. He embraced the gift of living and brought so much joy and light to this world.

Wayne was born in 1953 to his beloved, sweet, mother Jeanette (Paradis) Goulet and devout father, George Goulet. He was a third generation Nashua native who attended Infant Jesus School from Kindergarten to grade 8 and graduated from Nashua High School in 1973. He began his career at Goulet Printing, left to raise his two daughters, and finished his career as a facilities manager for Target, Corp. He retired to help raise his beloved grandsons.

Wayne is survived by his daughter, Tara (Goulet) Osinski and her husband, Cliff, daughter, Fallon Goulet, grandsons, Colby, Holden, and Eric Osinski, his former wife and partner, Robbin Goulet, brother Gary Goulet and his wife Karen Goulet, as well as his nieces Ashley (Pfaff) Griffin, Brooke Pfaff, Kate (Goulet) Aquino, Meagan (Goulet) Thompson, Molly (Goulet) Bolt, Ursula Goulet, Courtney (Pichette) Mills, Kristen (Phillipson) Nelson and Laura Phillipson, as well as numerous other family, life long friends, and acquaintances. He is predeceased by his brothers James and Kenneth Goulet.
