Kurt A. Bettencourt

BETTENCOURT, Kurt A., 59, of Cranston, passed away Thursday, April 6, 2023.

Born in Warwick, he was the youngest son of the late Manuel F. Bettencourt, Jr. and Josephine A. (Lesanskas) Bettencourt.

For many years Kurt lived within and worked for the Accesspoint RI community. He enjoyed music and dances, his countless books, and he was a master puzzle maker.  He was never known to refuse a juicy hamburger or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. While many dread their birthday as they get older, no one looked forward to celebrating a birthday more than Kurt! He was a sweet, happy soul and he will be missed and remembered by those whose lives he touched.

He is survived by three siblings, Manny Bettencourt of Fiskeville, Suzanne M. Marchand of Narragansett, Donna M. Meade of Coventry and; two nieces, Nichole Lemieux and Sarah Marchand and two nephews, Benjamin Marchand and Glenn Meade, Jr.

Family and friends are invited to attend a visitation on Saturday, April 15, 2023 from 11:00-12:00 p.m. in the PRATA-GALLOGLY Funeral Home, 78 Providence Street, West Warwick followed by a funeral home service at 12:00 p.m. Interment will be private.
