- Carol Lee Gamache Obituary
Rye, NH ? Carol Lee Gamache passed away peacefully on Saturday, July 26, 2025, after a period of declining health. She was the devoted wife of Roger R. Gamache for 47 years, and a cherished mother, grandmother, sister, and friend.
Carol was born on October 18, 1945, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Harold and Hazel (Bishop) Hamblin. She was raised in Arlington, MA, and graduated from Arlington High School in 1963.
Carol began her career at Polaroid, where she worked for 14 years before retiring early and moving from Tewksbury, MA, to the seaside town of Rye, NH. She later found joy working as a teacher?s aide in the Seabrook and Greenland elementary schools, where she brought her kindness, patience, and gentle spirit to the classroom.
Carol had a deep love of cooking and found creative expression through food. Her passion was especially nurtured during her time working at Li Yuen?s Chinese Specialties, where she mastered six levels of Chinese cooking. Her well-loved collection of over 175 cookbooks was a true reflection of her culinary curiosity.
Carol treasured quiet, meaningful time shared with family and friends. She will be remembered for her warmth, humor, and the love she gave to those closest to her.
She is survived by her husband, her daughter, Kristin, and son-in-law Will Arnold, along with her beloved grandson, Brady, who brought her endless joy. She is also survived by her brother Kenneth, and her nephews Mark and Stephen. She was predeceased by her sister Marian, who held a special place in her heart.
Carol?s life was a beautiful blend of love, laughter, and generosity. She will be missed more than words can express.
