Colman Walsh Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Blake Chelmsford Funeral Home on Feb. 12, 2026.
Colman J. "Colie" Walsh, age 81, resident of Chelmsford, formerly Arlington, passed away peacefully at Tufts Medical Center in Boston on Monday, February 9, 2026, surrounded by his loving family.
He was the beloved husband of Bridget T. (Nee) Walsh, with whom he shared 51 devoted years of marriage filled with love, laughter, and unwavering partnership.
Born on November 23, 1944, in Rosmuc, County Galway, Ireland, Colman was the cherished son of the late John and Delia (O'Malley) Walsh. He carried his Irish roots with pride throughout his life, holding close the values of family, friends, and community.
In addition to his loving wife, Colie leaves behind his devoted children: Joseph Walsh and his wife Carolyn, Sean Walsh and his wife Hailey, and Ann York and her husband Alex. He was a proud and adoring grandfather to Bridget, Sinead, Paige, Jack, and Sadie, each of whom brought immense joy to his life.
Colie will be remembered for his warmth, steady presence, and deep love for his family. His legacy lives on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
Suaimhneas síoraí dá anam.
Eternal peace to his soul.
