​In Memory of

​Rene Dube

     Rene J. Dube Jr., 90, of Hereford, AZ, passed away on February 11, 2023 in Reno, NV with his family at his side.
 
     Rene was born in Nashua, NH to the late Rene J. Dube Sr. and Florette L. (Beauregard) Dube on 10/14/1932. After a year at the University of New Hampshire, he enlisted in the Army, where he served his country for 26 years, retiring in 1979 as a CW4. While in the Army, he completed one combat tour in South Korea and three combat tours in Vietnam. He was awarded numerous medals including the Bronze Star Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Army Commendation Medal, and the Vietnam Cross of Gallantry Medal.  He returned to formal education and received his BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of New Hampshire in 1964 and an MBA from NY Institute of Technology in 1974. After retiring from the Army, he continued his work in the Civil Service and at MITRE as an Electrical Engineer in areas of tactical and strategic communications systems engineering.
 
     Rene was an avid hunter and fisherman, actively involved in teaching youth to hunt safely and working with several volunteer groups, especially The Huachuca Gould’s Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation. In 2007, he was recognized as the Volunteer of the Year by the Arizona Game and Fish Commission. Rene was further part of an Honor Flight to Washington DC where he was honored as a Veteran.
 
     Rene is survived by his wife of 62 years, Ingeborg (Busch) Dube, his children Evi Dube (Michael Dunning) and Pete Dube (Jason), his sisters Irene (Gil) Boilard, Rita (Jerry) Boucher, his sister-in-law Nancy Dube, and his granddaughter, Emily Dube Dunning.  He was predeceased by his brothers, Normand Dube and Richard Dube.  He also leaves behind numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
 
     The Dube family expresses their deep appreciation to all his friends.  In lieu of holding funeral services, the family wants to honor and remember Rene’s lifelong work and dedication to conservation and youth through a Legacy donation in memory of Rene J. Dube Jr..       Donations can be made in his name at NWTF Legacy Memorial Giving Program located at
