Kathryn Elizabeth McGoldrick, 71, of Cambridge, MA, passed away on April 14, 2025, in Acton, MA. Born in Cambridge, Kathryn dedicated many years of her life working as a transporter in hospitals, where she was known for her kindness and dedication.
Kathryn had a profound love for her dogs, cherishing moments spent with them, reflecting her nurturing and caring nature. She also enjoyed her summer trips to York Beach, Maine, a place that held a special place in her heart.
She was preceded in death by her mother, Monica E. Corrigan, her father, William McGoldrick, her stepfather, Leo J. Corrigan, her brother, Leo J Corrigan Jr., and her nephew, Richard L. Corrigan. Kathryn is survived by her brother, Kevin Corrigan, her sister, Patricia LeClair ( Ron LeClair); her brother, John Corrigan ( Donna Corrigan); her sister, Jean Weston ( John Weston ); and her sister, Maureen Owens ( Earl Owens ), along with many nieces, nephews, and cousins who will miss her dearly.
Kathryn will be remembered for her caring of others, her love for animals, and the joy she found in the simple pleasures of life. Her legacy of warmth and compassion is cherished by all who knew her.
God's Garden
God looked around His garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face.
He put His arms around youand lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,He always takes the best.
He saw the road was getting rough, and the hills were hard to climb, so He closed your weary eyelids and whispered, "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home.
