Nate Lebreche

Nathaniel L. Labreche, 31, of Burlington passed away suddenly at his home on May 22. Nate was the beloved son of Lisa E. Poitrast and the late Laurence M. Labreche. He is survived by his sister, Emily E. Poitrast; his stepdad, Stephen C. Poitrast; and his longtime love, Michelle D. Pacifico. He was adored by all of his aunts, uncles and cousins.

Nate grew up in Hopkinton and graduated from Hopkinton High School in 2008 and from Framingham State College in 2013. For the past four years, he worked as a workday financials sales manager at ALKU. He was passionate about “closing the deal,” and it was where he shined the best.

He enjoyed spending time at Cape Cod on the beach, boating and biking with family and friends, and also loved hiking with Michelle and their dog, Nellie. Nate had a heart of gold and a charming smile, and his kindness and good humor inspired those who knew and loved him. He touched all of our lives, and we will miss him more than words can say.

Visiting hours will be held in the Eaton Funeral Home, 1351 Highland Ave., Needham, on Wednesday, May 26, from 4-7 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Nate’s name may be made to Great Dog Rescue New England, 9 Bartlet St., Suite 316, Andover, MA 01810 or gdrne.com.
