David Michael “Dave” Boucher, 70, of Edgecomb, Maine passed away suddenly on Aug. 8, 2026.

He was born and raised in Taunton, Massachusetts and had also previously lived in Wareham, Massachusetts before moving to Maine with his family in 2001.

Dave was known as a friendly face, a helping hand, and a keen mind. Hardworking and resourceful, Dave was enthusiastic about woodworking, home restoration, and held an enduring dedication to historic preservation. Passionate for old cars and long drives with Deb, he loved fresh wild blackberries, a good cup of coffee, Maine seafood, and watching dragonflies on a summer evening.

Dave was predeceased by his parents, Joyce and Maurice Boucher, and his eldest sister Paula Nichols. 

He is remembered by his wife, Deborah Boucher; dogs, Tessa and Kitty; children, Mitchell Boucher and Mandy Cork (née Boucher), son-in-law John Cork, and granddaughter Ruby Cork; Karen Edgecombe (née Brown) and James Brown, who he always called his bonus kids, as well as Joshua, Terrence, and Violet Edgecombe; his sisters, Karin Donahue-Smith and Deborah Brazil; and nephews, David Boucher - and his wife Kristina and their daughter Adeline - and Daniel Corey - and his wife Rachael and their children Cecelia and Jonah. 

Dave will be deeply missed by his family, friends and community. 

A memorial will be held at the Edgecomb Town Hall at 16 Town Hall Road, Edgecomb on Saturday, Sept. 19 at 11 a.m. This will be followed by a reception downstairs at the Town Hall. The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, attendees bring a potluck dish to share with fellow mourners during the reception. Dave loved a potluck.

Arrangements are under the care and direction of Strong-Hancock Funeral Home, 612 Main Street, Damariscotta, Maine 04543. To view his memorial page and leave a condolence or message for his family, you may visit stronghancock.com.
