Dustin, 89, died December 13, 2013 following a period of declining health at his daughter's home in Francestown. He was born in Campton on June 18, 1923, son of Leon J. and Lillian (Elias) Dustin. After his early years in Jamaica, N.Y. the family returned to New Hampshire in 1934. He attended one room schools in Campton and Livermore Falls through the seventh grade, moving to Plymouth and graduating from Plymouth High School in the Class of 1942. He was a veteran of World War II, serving as a machine gunner in the 20th Armored Division in the European Theatre. Honorably discharged in February 1946 his postwar plans to become the Playboy of the Western World were mad to change when he met and married Marie Landroche of Ashland, settling there for what was to become their home and base of operations for more than 60 years. After four years of working nights at the Woolen Mill and attending class during the day at Plymouth Teachers College under the auspices of the GI Bill, Leon graduated in Education. What followed, according to Leon, was "the most satisfying of careers, working with young people, helping them grow and become young adults while they were helping me to grow in so many ways." Leon's career in teaching, coaching and administration in Lisbon, Franklin and Belmont as well as six years in the industry from retirement from education kept him away from Ashland 38 years. In 1990 he and Marie returned to Ashland to renew old relationships and enjoy their retirement. Both Leon and Marie became involved in the local American Legion Post and other projects. Leon was elected Post Commander in 1993 and continued in that office for 12 consecutive years while Marie was elected President of the Auxiliary in 1994 and remained in that office for 11 consecutive years. Their 69 year romance and marriage ended October 25, 2006 with Marie's passing after a period of declining health. Leon was predeceased by his parents, a brother, Charles and sister, Elaine. He is survived by a son Larry of Bennington, daughter, Lisa Perrault of Francestown and grandchildren, Jason Dustin of Gulfport, Florida and Jonathan Roth, Taylor Roth and Darian Perrault, all of Francestown. A mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Thursday, December 19, 2013 at St. Agnes Catholic Church, Hill Avenue at 11 a.m. Spring burial will be in Green Grove Cemetery. The Record Enterprise, December 19, 2013, A11.
