SCARBOROUGH — Ronald Edward Gochie, 72, died Aug. 2.

He was born on May 7, 1937, and attended Scarborough schools.

He worked for Scarborough Public Works until his retirement.

With his wife of 47 years, Barbara Ann, he traveled to Arizona in their motor home. Arizona seemed to be a part of him, and it was an adventure they truly loved.

In 1997, they moved back to Maine.

His interests included hunting, fishing and spending time with his family. He especially enjoyed his time at the family riverside camp in Homestead.
