Roland D. Bergeron, 87, of Fall River, husband of Patricia (Dupont) Bergeron, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, September 21, 2020.

Born in New Bedford, he was a son of the late Ludger and Beatrice (LeBlanc) Bergeron.

Mr. Bergeron was a member of Holy Name Church and had worked for Fernandes Supermarkets for many years as a manager until his retirement. In his "retirement" he then began to work at Economy Liquors. He loved to shore fish, and enjoyed spending time with his family. It seemed like wherever he went, he had a friend there, ready and willing to listen to his stories. Roland was a jack of all trades.

In addition to his wife of 65 years he is survived by: his 3 daughters, Deborah Silvia of Fall River, Karen Gay and her husband, David, of Lisbon Falls, ME, and Cathy Bergeron and her wife, Charlene Hamilton, of Cochrane, Alberta, Canada; 3 grandchildren, Kate Wyant, Patrick McCoy and Kenneth McCoy, 5 great grandchildren; 4 siblings, Omer Bergeron of Southwick, MA, Alfred Bergeron and his wife, Doris, of Maryland, Ann Cabral and her husband, Tony, of Tiverton and Robert Bergeron and his wife, Karin, of Westport. He was the brother of the late Albert Bergeron.

His Memorial Funeral Mass was celebrated on Friday, October 2nd, in Holy Name Church followed by his committal and burial of his cremains at Oak Grove Cemetery.
