Jane Cullinan Obituary

GROTON

Jane Francis (Redding) Cullinan, 81, passed away Thursday, September 16, 2021 after a long battle with dementia.

Jane was born in Lowell, MA on October 13th, 1939, daughter of Nora (Harrigan) Redding and Frank Redding. She grew up in Lowell and attended Lowell State, before moving to Groton with her loving husband of 62 years, Harry Cullinan.

Jane was always looking her best and had many different hair styles and colors. She most enjoyed wearing jewelry, shopping, doing crafts and going for walks.  She always loved the fall season and flowers. Her most valued time was spending time with her family.

She joins her parents and her brother Frank Redding in heaven.  She is survived by her husband, Harry Cullinan and three children, Michal Cullinan and his partner Linda Robichaud of Leominster, MA, Kevin Cullinan and his wife Mary of Shirley, MA, and Keri Cullinan of Nashua, NH.  She also leaves behind two sisters, Nona Bilionis of Longmeadow, MA and Karen Cosgrove of Chelmsford, MA, as well as three beloved grandchildren: Laura, Justin and Natalie.  She was so proud of them all and she was happy to hold the title "Gram".
