Obituary, as Therapy
Jamie Suzanne Bolduc passed away peacefully on Friday at the age of 94. She is survived by her son, Matthew Carter (60) daughter Adeline Grace (52), sister Lindsey Michelle (92), and five grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband Joseph Ryan in 2065. A reputable journalist, songwriter and passionate performance artist in her young adult life, Jamie fronted several rock bands and was credited for writing and producing many indie-pop crossover singles. She started a grassroots news blog in 2015, giving a platform to the voiceless who endured personal hardships and oppression, and won several news critics' awards. She and her husband met during an investigative journalism piece she was conducting on human trafficking in SE Asia. They eloped in 2017 and ultimately settled at his vineyard in Paso Robles. Once their daughter entered grade school, Jamie took her fascination with the chemistry of food to culinary school. She went on to open her own culinary school in Cambria, which developed into a not-for-profit career recovery center for non-violent drug offenders. She and her family traveled extensively throughout Europe and Asia in the 2040's and enjoyed frequent weekend jaunts to Palm Springs, Napa Valley and Las Vegas via her son's private jet. Jamie will always be remembered for her dedication to her family, her generous heart, and her thoughtful contributions to journalism and music. Services will be held at her home in Paso Robles next Sunday. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Culinary Academy of Cambria, or to the Red Cross.
