Aime Alfred Levecque passed away at the Barron Center Portland, Maine March 9, 2013 after several years with Alzheimer's surrounded by his loving family. He was born on September 28, 1927 in Westbrook, the son of Wilfred and Edesse Levesque, both deceased. He was raised in Westbrook and attended local schools. As a young boy he belonged to the Crusader's at the St. Hyacinth Church, attended their parochial school and a communicant of St. Mary's Church. He entered the Navy in 1944 with a discharge in 1946 as Seaman 1st class. In 1948 Aime married his sweetheart Constance (Connie) Libby also of Westbrook. Her brother had given Aime a picture of his sister which Aime carried in his wallet throughout his years in the Navy. Connie hadn't even met him yet. They would have celebrated 65 years together in April. He started a long sales career with the Henley Kimball Co. on Forest Avenue selling Hudson's for over 9 years and received numerous honors as their top salesman. He served many years as New England's sales representative with companies such as Valvoline Oil Co. and Oxford Chemical Co. then was transferred to Ridgefield, CT where he established territory throughout New York State. In 1965 he was yet again transferred to Portland, Oregon where he covered the Pacific Northwest for Bell & Howell. While in Oregon he helped establish a new concept of "drive up photo shops" and called them Photo Island. They were in many of the local area shopping centers and Hawaii which proved very successful. Wanting to settle his family down they moved back to Maine in 1970 where he started his own Chemical and Supply Company, Dynamic Sales Inc for 12 years. In 1982 he was encouraged to accept a position that required a Maine native to represent a German company, Remstar International in settling their national headquarters in So. Portland. He was responsible for finding a location, hiring staff and implementing all operations. Remstar is still doing business at a Westbrook location after 31 years. In 1983 he started Executive Limousine Service, offering the first stretch limousine in southern Maine. He had the opportunity to service President Bush with his Kennebunkport functions and many times drove dignitaries including Rev. Billy Graham and various entertainers. In 1986 yet another business opportunity came about for Aime while enjoying semi-retirement. He was asked by a dear friend Ed Burns to find a buyer for his Westbrook based fence company, E.A. Burns Fencing. He agreed to purchase the company himself and bought the old railroad station on Rochester Street to set up the new business site where it still stands after 27 years. Within a year he asked his son Peter to join him and 10 years ago Peter's son Jason joined the company as well. Aime was a charter member of the Westbrook Junior Chamber of Commerce, the Westbrook Rotary and the American Legion. He worked on many charity drives and fund projects for the St. Mary's Church. Connie and Aime enjoyed many years boating on Sebago Lake. While they spent 21 happy years in their Venice, Florida condo during the Maine winters, they also enjoyed many trips throughout the U.S., Caribbean, Canada, Italy and celebrated their 50th anniversary in France. They also enjoyed visiting their daughter Suzanne while she lived in Massachusetts, Chicago, Colorado and California. Now living back home, Suzanne remembers their love for dancing with each other. “I forever wanted a few dance steps with Dad, he was so smooth and I loved seeing his smile as he glided across the floor. But Mom was his dancing partner and people would stop to watch them – they were a wonderful sight to see". Aime leaves his wife Connie, daughter Suzanne and her partner Janet Pitt; son Peter, daughter in law Terry; grandson Jason and his finance Emilie Youmans; granddaughter Kristen and her husband Jason Philbrook; and granddaughter Jamie. Great grandchildren, Carson, Kali and Logan. A brother Donald and sister in law Geraldine in New Hampshire along with several nieces and nephews.
