ARMIDA MERCURY Obituary

MERCURY, Armida Age 97, passed away peacefully, with her grandsons Todd and Tim by her side, on Wednesday, January 13, 2021 at Emerson Hospital in Concord, MA. She was born April 27, 1923 in Framingham, MA to Paul Brizzolesi and Mary Guerra. She was a graduate of Framingham High School. She married George Mercury April 1, 1943 in Framingham, MA, and had two daughters, Eudene and Jeannie. She worked at Raytheon, Honeywell and Prime Computer. Armida was beautiful inside and out. She was a strong and caring woman. If you were lucky enough to know Armida, you will know how much she cared about others and was very much a social butterfly. She hated to be alone, loved to go out to lunch at the Wayside Inn, and welcomed anyone and everyone into her home, whether a dear friend or the postman. She was punctual with her 9pm goodnight calls that will always be remembered. Her strong will and feistiness will be greatly missed. She is survived by her sister Camella Grieco, son-in-law William McSweeney, daughter Jeannie, grandchildren Timothy, Todd, David and Stephen, great-grandchildren Hailee, Ashley, Summer, Liam, Finley, Declan and Sarah. Services will be held in private at the Douglass Funeral Home, 51 Worthen Rd., LEXINGTON, MA 02421. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to the American Kidney Fund in Memory of her daughter, Eudene. Lexington 781-862-1800
