Obituary
Coventry, RI - Raymond Jackson Thibeault, 20, passed from this life on July 22, 2020. He was a cherished son of Raymond and Dineen (Zisk) Thibeault, and the soul mate of his twin brother Remy John Thibeault. Raymond was young, bright and talented. Full of love, compassion and acceptance. He carried, with pride, the name of his father and grandfather. Every single memory of Raymond is shared with his brother, Remy. They were inseparably bonded. Raymond’s love of family and friends was shared equally with his love for music and theatre. He was a bright light on the Academy Players’ stage and brought passion and vitality to each performance as a member of the Company Cast. He will always be remembered by his chilling performance in Jekyll and Hyde, in which he played opposite his brother, Remy. If Raymond wasn’t performing on stage, he was serenading and entertaining all who had the privilege to share his beautiful life. Raymond graduated from Coventry High School, Class of 2018 and was currently enrolled as a freshman at the University of Rhode Island in Kingston. In addition to his parents and twin brother, he is survived by his maternal grandmother Patricia (Jackson) Zisk of Warwick; his maternal grandfather Dennis Zisk (wife Eileen) of North Providence and his paternal grandparents Raymond and Jeanette (Ruzzo) Thibeault of Cranston. He was the nephew of Melissa Zisk Brown (husband John) of Pineville, NC; Deborah Remington (husband Robert St. Germain) of Coventry; Linda Marzilli (wife Sharon Manville) of East Greenwich; Derek Zisk (wife Linda) of Sterling, CT, and Greg Zisk of Warwick. He is survived by many cousins including Jessica & Derek Zisk; Nina & Connor Brown; Joseph & Domenic Marzilli; Jacob, Simone, Nicholas, Nathan, Matthew & Hannah Joaquin; Julie Newbury and Rosalind Sibielski. He was the God Child of Jeri Jackson & Jonathan Joaquin. A mass of Christian burial will be celebrated at SS.
