Obituary

Long time Saugus resident, Armand Couture entered into eternal rest on November 4, 2020, after a courageous battle with cancer.  Born in Revere, he is the son of the late Armand L. Couture, Sr. and Evelyn G. (Elliott). Armand attended Revere Public Schools and graduated from Revere High School, Class of 1964.  After high school he attended King's/Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.  Upon returning home, Armand worked at his family's business, Alco Food Products in Saugus.  He worked there until he embarked on a career at the US Postal Service as a clerk and acting supervisor.  Armand retired in January of 2013 from the Chelsea IMC as a long time manual distribution clerk.  Armand enjoyed his retirement by always keeping busy.  He was an avid runner and ran the Boston Marathon 7 times.  His proudest run was his time of 3 hours 23 minutes.  Armand will always be remembered for distributing care packages of snacks and food to family and friends.  He had a passion for collecting bottles and cans and donating his profits to St. John's Episcopal Church in Saugus, where they in turn, donated to My Brother's Table.  To date, Armand has collected $738.60 for this year of turning in bottles and cans, something he was very proud of!  Armand was a longtime active member of St. John's Episcopal Church.  He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by his incredible work ethic and charismatic nature.
Armand was the beloved husband of 48 years to Elizabeth "Betty" A. (Slate) Couture; devoted father of Armand L. Couture III and his wife Kelly, Andrea L. Couture and her husband Dana Clark, Julie A. Couture and her wife Briana; dear brother of Linda M. Shea and her husband Paul, Mark E. Couture and his wife Mahnaz, and the late Elizabeth G. Hampton. Armand is also lovingly survived by his grandchildren, Ethan, Ashley, Jacob and Kelly's daughters, Hallie and Jessica.
