Raymond Edward Beausoleil

Ray was born in Butte, MT on December 16, 1948 to parents Paul V. and Mary Theresa (McCarthy) Beausoleil.

Ray was in and out of the hospital most of his early years for lung problems and allergies that continued through his adult life.

Ray attended both St. Paul’s and St. Joseph grade school and attended Anaconda Central, graduating in 1967. He then went on to Carroll College where his plans were to become a priest. After several years he decided that the priesthood was not his calling.

He went on to work at the Berkley Pit until his health wouldn’t allow it. He then went to work as a Philatelist for several years then worked for the Diocese of Helena as a printer.  Ray finished his career as a Psych Aide at Montana State Hospital.

Ray is survived by his son David Beausoleil from Berkeley, California. His brother and sister-in-law Paul and Michelle Beausoleil, his sister Dorothy and brother-in-law Larry Kalcso, and brother Mike Beausoleil.

He is preceded in death by his parents Paul V. and Theresa Beausoleil, and his son Donald.

A graveside service for Ray will be held at 11:00 am on Friday June 30, 2023 at New Hill Cemetery, Stumptown Road, Anaconda, Montana 59711.
