The spirit of Santa: Canterbury neighborhood recalls man who donned a red suit

This time of year, Conrad Paquette’s neighbors remember him as Santa Claus.

But the Canterbury residents also recall the time 15 years ago when “Conny” came to their aid, raising money to provide new playground equipment in Chaucer Park.

Conrad Paquette died in 2001, but his spirit lives on in the Canterbury neighborhood, particular during the holidays.

“It’s amazing how one life can affect an entire community,” said Barb Little, a former member of the Canterbury homeowners association.
