O’Brien, Helen S. of Revere passed away on November 13, 2025, at the age of 72. Born in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada on September 16, 1953, to the late Laura (Booth) and John J O’Brien (Jack)
Helen spent many successful years as a billing coordinator in a law office. Her dedication and intelligence were evident in her work. Helen was a very independent woman who enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. She loved a good book, and cooking a good meal. She always wore her red boots on Fridays and on Christmas.
She was a devoted mother of Dianne E. Cambriello and her husband Richard of Revere. Adored grandmother of Mia and Jack. A dear sister of Bonnie O’Brien of New Brunswick, Canada, and Linda Kerr and her late husband Larry of Cookshire, Quebec. Caring aunt of Timothy and Debra Kerr. Cherished companion of the late Rudy Pardi. She was a dear friend who was more likely to offer help than ask for it.
As we mourn her passing, we also celebrate the life she lived and the love she shared.
We encourage those who knew Helen to share their memories and upload photos on her memorial page at www.buonfiglio.
