Obituary of Mary Ann Dodge
Mary Ann Dodge, age 86, of Woburn Ma, sadly passed away on January 27, 2025 with family by her side. Mary was the loving wife of the late Richard Dodge, Sr., and the two called Woburn their home since 1966.
Mary was born in Chelsea Mass on July 27, 1938. She was the fourth of eight children of Michael and Genevieve Noveska. Mary was predeceased by her loving husband Richard Sr. and her five brothers.
Mary was a caring wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who will be greatly missed. She adored her husband and family very much and had a special place in her heart for all children.
Mary was proud of her all-Polish heritage and had a passion for animals including her two cats. She enjoyed bargain hunting at yard sales, antiquing and participating at flea markets with her husband. She loved bringing her family together with her pool parties and cookouts.
Mary was always up for an adventure and loved trips to the warmth of Florida and the beaches. Throughout her life, Mary worked various jobs as an industrial seamstress. Mary had an attitude that some called a tough cookie or spitfire, and she was ready for any new idea or activity. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
Mary is survived by one daughter, Linda McDade and her husband James McDade Jr; and one son, Richard Dodge Jr. She is also survived by six grandchildren, James McDade III, Genevieve Divanefendic, Davis Dodge, Darien Dodge, Christopher McDade, and Deidre Dodge; and her great grandchildren. Mary is also survived by her two sisters June Wangrocki and Genevieve Racki both of Massachusetts
