Jeffrey Sias

Jeffrey C. Sias, 52, passed away unexpectedly on April 23, 2026.

Born Jan. 10, 1974, Jeffrey was raised in Hopkinton and later made his home in Conway, New Hampshire, before moving to Hersey, Maine. He lived a life centered around family, connection and the people he cared about most. He will be remembered not only for his presence but for the creativity and skill he brought into everyday life. Jeffrey was very creative and exceptionally handy; in his spare time, he enjoyed inventing new things and working on home projects, always finding ways to build, fix and improve whatever was around him.

Jeffrey worked for Manchac Technologies, where he was known for his strong work ethic, dedication and reliability.

Jeffrey is survived by his beloved wife, April Sias of Hersey, Maine; his son, Hunter Sias of Conway, New Hampshire; his stepsons, Wayne Martin, Scott Martin and Ty Hebert; his parents, Nancy Whipple and Jeffrey Sias; his sister, Laurie Galvin; and his four cherished grandchildren, Emma Martin, Connor Martin, Markus Lyons-Cookeys Jr. and Beau Hebert.

He was predeceased by his grandparents, Neilson and Maureen Gass of Naples, Florida.

Jeffrey’s memory will live on through his family and all who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered for his creativity, his generosity and the love he gave so freely to those around him.

In lieu of flowers, a GoFundMe has been established to support Jeffrey’s family. Those who wish to contribute may do so by visiting gofund.me/fa271bd64.
