Victor J. Rainville
March 19, 1939 — July 13, 2020
Colonie- Victor J. Rainville passed away peacefully on July 13, 2020 in his home in the presence of his loving family. He was the son of Victor Rainville and Edna Rainville House and stepson of Vrooman House.
He graduated from LaSalle Institute in 1957 where he had loved playing the trombone with the school band. Following that, he served in the U.S. Army for six years during which time he met Irene Ostiguy, whom he would later marry and spend the rest of his life with.
Vic was a proud and encouraging husband, father, and grandfather. He loved music and enjoyed the several years he spent singing with the Our Lady of Mercy choir.
He is survived by his wife Irene (Ostiguy) Rainville, daughter Eva, and granddaughter Laura. He is also survived by sisters-in-law Lilian (Ronald) Ramsey, Alice LaPorte, Lucille (Frederick) MacNaughton, Helen Martin, Marie Maycheck, MaryAnn (Michael) Kospa, Rose (Patricia Ford) Ryan and Doris (Michael) Della Rocca, several nephews and nieces, and his loving dog Sierra.
