JANE WALSH Obituary

WALSH, Jane F. Of Westwood, MA, formerly of Brookline, MA died at home March 4th, 2022 surrounded by her large and loving family. Predeceased by her husband William J. Walsh, Jr. Loving mother of Susan Toolin (Bob) of Burlington, VT, Deborah Farrell (Paul) of Foxboro, Lynne McGeary (Jim) of Foxboro, Diane Gavin (Jim) of Westwood and Bill Walsh (Shana) of Raymond, NH.

She was also the proud great-grandmother of Keagan, Logan and Harper Mae, James and Charlotte, James and Madeleine. She was the beloved sister of Robert, Paul and John Webber.

Jane's most favorite moments included spending time with her family, following Boston sports teams and enjoying time on her three season porch. Jane's last request in life was to spend her final days in her Westwood home, surrounded and cared for by her family. We all feel so blessed and proud that we honored this request. We thank Bella, RN from Good Shepherd Community Hospice who guided us through this difficult time.
