Christine Leary Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Boston Cremation - Malden Care Center on Sep. 18, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

Christine M. Leary, known affectionately to friends and family as Chris, passed away peacefully on September 11, 2025, at the age of 72. Born on April 10, 1953, Christine's life was characterized by her unwavering faith, her generous spirit, and her enduring love for those around her. A devout Catholic, she lived her life as a testament to her faith.

A dedicated mother, Christine's children were the pride of her life. She raised them with love, teaching them the importance of faith, honesty, and respect for others. Her guidance was gentle yet firm, always delivered with the warmth and understanding that were the hallmarks of her life.

As we mourn the loss of Christine M. Leary, we also celebrate the legacy she leaves behind-a legacy of love, kindness, and faith that will continue to inspire those who knew her. She faced life's challenges with courage and poise, never losing sight of the hope and joy that were the foundation of her being. Her memory will be cherished and kept alive in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to have been touched by her extraordinary life.

Christine's departure from this world leaves a void that cannot be filled, but her spirit remains with us, guiding us with the same love and wisdom she shared so generously. Her journey on earth may have ended, but the impact of her life will be felt for generations to come. We bid farewell to a remarkable woman, a beacon of light and love, and we hold tight to the memories that will forever remain a testament to her remarkable journey through life.

Rest in Peace Chris, you are safely at home with your loved ones up in heaven.

A memorial service for Christine will be held for Christine on October 3rd from10:00AM to 12:00PM at Boston Cremation 287 Main Street, Malden, MA 02148.
