loved taking pictures of her
home, garden, and surrounding
wildlife. When she was not
enjoying the beauty that New
Hampshire had to offer, Maureen was traveling the world.
Her favorite spots included Las
Vegas and the various islands of
the Caribbean. To celebrate one
of their wedding anniversaries,
she and her husband took a
dream vacation to Europe where
Maureen was immersed in the
cultures of Italy, Spain, Greece,
and Turkey. It was a once in a
lifetime trip that she spoke of
often with enthusiasm and
excitement.
Her greatest sense of pride
and joy came in the love she had
for her family. She is survived
by her husband of 46 years, John;
her son Robert and his wife Erin
and their children, Margaret and
Christian Pugh; her daughter
Laurieanne Davis and her husband Shawn; her father-in-law
Neil; her brother Skipper Walsh
and his wife Paula, and their
children Michael, Matthew, and
Emily; several brothers and sisters-in-law who were the center
of her being; as well as a niece
and two nephews.
There are no public calling
hours. There will be a private
celebration of her life held at a
later date at the convenience of
the family.
Expressions of sympathy in
memory of Maureen may be
made to the American Cancer
Society, 2 Commerce Dr., Suite
110, Bedford, NH 03110.
