died peacefully at his home in Ferrisburgh, surrounded by his loving family, on Saturday, March 4, 2006, following a courageous battle with kidney cancer. Mr. Rossier graduated from the University of Vermont with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. He was a heavy artilleryman for the Vermont Army National Guard. He worked in the General Electric weapons division in Burlington on the high rate of fire feed systems for the Vulcan cannon. In 1971 he purchased the Devine Sales and Service garage from his father, Douglas Rossier. This is a family business, started in 1948 by Doug and his father-in-law, Ernest Devine. His engineering experience was a credit to the brands he carried at Devine's. He field-tested, engineered, and developed running changes to the 1340 Hesston mower and the tripling function to Hesston self-propelled mowers, and he solved a cooling issue for Polaris Industries. His love for power sports began with a summer job as a mechanic at Point Bay Marina. He was in the pits on the opening day of Thunder Road. He was a member of the Vermont Sports Car Club and was New England champion of hill climbing in the early 1970s. He was an active charter member of the Vermont Tractor Pulling Association, where he had been vice president and director, as well as Vermont state champion in the 7,000-pound class super stock with Super Boss, an alcohol-fueled Oliver. He made great strides in the tractor pulling circuit by being one of the first to fuel a pulling tractor with alcohol. He never missed a pull in the greater Addison area. He directed Addison County Field Days in the 1980s, and he and his wife were members of the Little Otter Snowmobile Club. He loved slalom water skiing, sailing, fishing, NASCAR racing, and relaxing at his beloved camp in Lincoln. He was a man of honor and excellence, and he had an incredible loving heart. He is survived by his wife, Jean; by his sons Tyler of Ferrisburgh and Eric and his wife, Stephanie, of Lincoln; by his stepchildren Heidi Ambrose and her husband, Richard, of Vergennes and their daughter Molly and Bret Griswold and his wife, Dawn, of Monkton and their sons Spencer and Patton; by his brother Glen and his wife, Kathy, of Ferrisburgh and their children Emily of Troy, New York, and Ryan of Boston; by sisters Annie Ross of East Newbury and Sue of Vergennes; by parents, Douglas and Mary Rossier, of Danville; by his aunt Marjorie Rossier Burdick of Glover; and by many loving relatives and friends.

She spent most of her life working in many of the area's fine restaurants. After retiring she and her husband spent many enjoyable summers at their home on Crystal Lake in Barton.

, 72, of East Charleston died at his home on March 13, 2006, from leukemia and lymphoma. His wife, ilene, and son Josh were at his bedside. Mr. Elliott was born in Morgan Center in the living room of the family home on October 1, 1933, to Lawrence and Cecelia (Monfette) Elliott. He served in the U.S. Air Force from 1953 to 1957 and the Air Force Reserve from 1957 to 1961 and was a longtime member of Brighton American Legion Post No. 80. He made a living as a heavy equipment operator and logger and was known as one of the best skidder operators in the area. His passion was playing baseball and later softball. He started playing for the local town teams when he was 13 and needed written permission from his parents to play ball with the men. He continued catching until he was in his late sixties when ill health forced him to retire from the game he loved. There are still men in the area who can tell about what a job Bobby Elliott did behind home plate. His only regret in life was not taking the opportunity to try out for the Red Sox when he was invited to in the early 1950s. He took his first drink when he was in his early teens, and as he would say, he "drank steadily and enthusiastically" for many years. His greatest achievement was to quit drinking at the age of 42. He was the loving and supportive husband to ilene, who he married in 1973, and the very proud father of Josh and father-in-law of Fatima. In August 2005, he became the delighted grampa to AliyahZaina Elliott. They reside in Barre. He is also survived by a sister, Joan Farrar, nephew Tony, and niece Becky, all of St. Albans and Jessica DiMartino of Island Pond, who was like a daughter. He leaves many cousins, uncles, aunts, friends, and former teammates. He leaves two good friends who helped and encouraged him during his long illness, Ben MacArthur and his wife, Colleen, and Jim Wheeler and his wife, Joan. After suffering a stroke in 2002 that left him blind in one eye, he found a great deal of enjoyment and satisfaction reading large print Westerns and listening to them on tape.

Mrs. Rossier was a loving, genuine, compassionate, selfless lady, always putting the concerns of others ahead of her own. She will be remembered as being devoted to her husband, family, and friends. She was a friend to all she met, and this world is most definitely a far better place because of her. She was born on March 26, 1921, in Ferrisburgh on the Little Otter Farm, a daughter of the late Ernest and Faith DeVine. She attended Robinson Grade School in Ferrisburgh, Lyndon Institute, and Bryan and Stratton Business College in Boston, Massachusetts. On August 2, 1943, she married Douglas Rossier, a classmate from Lyndon Institute.

She served as auditor for the town of Ferrisburg and was an active, dedicated member of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Vergennes, where she was baptized just a few weeks after her birth. Being a lifelong active member of the church, she took an active part in special events of the church and made flower arrangements for services. Having learned the art of soap-making as a young girl, she studied and perfected her skills to become a master soap maker. She started Mary's Soaps and became famous for her excellent product around the world. She also shared her talents with both adults and children, which included making soap, salves, perfumes, and pot scrubbers, knitting, crocheting, tatting, caning, and refinishing chairs. Many others have opened successful soap-making businesses due to her generous mentoring. In 1975, she and her husband moved to Holland, leaving the comforts of Ferrisburgh to live off the land without a telephone, relying on wind power and a wood stove for energy sources. During this time, they transitioned to a nutritional lifestyle of natural foods and supplements. She always shared her ever-increasing knowledge of good health out of concern for others' well-being. She and her husband enjoyed many years of farmers market activities in the Northeast Kingdom, offering soaps, crafts, flowers, plants, and good cheer. In 1988, they moved, with the windmill, to Danville. She leaves her husband, Douglas, of Danville; her children: Susan of Vergennes, Glenn and his wife, Kathy, of Ferrisburgh, and Annie of West Newbury. Sadly, she was predeceased by her eldest child, her son Charles Rossier, just 18 days before her own death, on March 4. She also leaves her daughter-in-law Jean (Charlie's widow) of Ferrisburgh; and four grandchildren: Tyler, Eric and wife, Stephanie, Emily, and Ryan. She also leaves a brother, Albert DeVine, of Ferrisburgh; sister-in-law Esther Smith and her husband, Archie, of Fostoria, Michigan; sister-in-law Marjorie Burdick of Orleans; many nieces and nephews; and many special cousins and friends. She was predeceased by her brother Karl DeVine. A dedication of her life was held at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Vergennes March 26. The Reverend Father Don Morris led the service, with readings provided by each of her grandchildren. Special tributes were offered by many of her nieces and her brother. Verses by the late Reverend John Daniel Rossier, circa 1870, the first member of the family to live in Vermont, were also read, as well as her favorite, the personal ten commandments for living, written by Helen Steiner Rice. Burial services will be held at a later date at the family lot in Eden Cemetery. Donations in Mrs. Rossier's memory may be made to St. Paul's Episcopal Church or to the charity of one's choice. To celebrate her life, the family invites all to be more giving of themselves in the way she lived her life. She was truly an angel on earth, who has now found her place with the Lord. "Say not in grief she is no more, but live in thankfulness that she was."
