Craig Louis Goulet, 75, of Harrison, Ark., peacefully passed away at his home on October 6, 2025. He was born on January 21, 1950, in Colchester, Vt., the son of Lyman and Helen (Rice) Goulet.
Craig was a true outdoorsman. He enjoyed golfing, fishing, hunting and many other outdoor activities.
Being outside in the cold never bothered him, probably because he grew up in Vermont. He liked snow-skiing and ice-skating. Craig was a proud U.S. Navy veteran and served our country for four years. He worked hard as a telephone installer and repairman, performing many tasks while working for the phone company as it went through several name changes and takeovers.
Craig is preceded in death by his parents, Lyman and Helen, and his brother Mark Edward Goulet.
He is survived by his son, Shawn (Shandi) Louis; grandchildren Miles, Dylan and Shelby; stepson, Sean (Faith) Burnett, grandchildren Bryson (Jacie) Rector and Paige (fiancé Adrian) Rector; and numerous great-grandchildren. He leaves behind his siblings Martha (Scott) Noel, Dan (Jen) Goulet, Dean Goulet and Jerry (Rebecca) Goulet and numerous nephews. Craig will be dearly missed by his life partner, Cheryl George.
A mass will take place on November 7, 2025, 9 a.m., at Holy Cross Catholic Church in Colchester, Vt. Following the mass, breakfast will be served at the church to celebrate Craig’s life.
Arrangements are under the care of Diamond State Cremation, located in Lead Hill, Ark. Condolences may be left at diamondstatecremation.com.
