Margaret Riney Obituary

Riney, Margaret "Meg" Mary (nee Bolen)

Margaret "Meg" Mary Riney (nee Bolen) Fortified with the Sacraments of Holy Mother Church Sat. Aug. 2, 2025.

Beloved mother of Henry and Jack Riney; beloved daughter of John Christopher Bolen and the late Margaret Mary Bolen (Swartz); dear sister of Peter (Michelle) Bolen; dear aunt of Michael and Isaac Bolen; dear niece of Joan Swartz and Jim Long, the late Robert Swartz, Jacqueline Swartz and Geoff Beckemeier, Maureen (Gil) Beckemeier, Kathleen (Chris) Luttman, Catherine Zoll, Ann Cannon, Nancy Bolen and Timothy Bolen; our dear cousin and friend.

Meg was a devoted mother to her precious sons Henry and Jack. She was also extraordinarily generous with her love, kindness, time, and charitable efforts leaving an indelible impression on many she encountered. Meg was born a stunning and timeless beauty but more than anything, she possessed a wicked sense of humor and an infectious laugh.
