AUBURN — Joseph “George” Cloutier, 86, of Lewiston, passed away on Saturday Jan. 23, at the Hospice House in Auburn with his family by his side.

George was born in Lewiston on Jan. 28, 1929, a son of the late Francois and Helene (Bourassa) Cloutier.

He grew up in the Lewiston area and attended local schools. In his late teens, George was drafted by the U.S. Army and proudly served his country for two years.
