It is with great sadness that the family of Patricia Ann Sheehan "Tricia", born February 7, 1970, in Boston, Massachusetts, passed away on June 10, 2025, in Raynham, Massachusetts. She was the beloved daughter of the late George and Ethel Sheehan.
Tricia is survived by her siblings: Catherine Slade and her husband Robert of Roslindale, Joseph Sheehan and his wife Katherine of Norwood, Stephen Sheehan and his wife Deborah of St. Cloud, Florida, Mary McCarthy Matthews and her husband Dennis of Roslindale, Carolyn Bleiler and her husband William of Quincy, Diane Sheehan of Roslindale, and sister-in-law Sheila Sheehan of Hyde Park. She was predeceased by her brothers George Sheehan and John Sheehan. She also leaves behind many nieces and nephews, whom she adored. She is also survived by her long-time companion, John Murphy of Raynham.
Tricia was a firecracker who was full of energy and enjoyed having fun. She delighted everyone with her sense of humor and infectious laugh. She was very athletic and competitive. Collecting seashells on the beach was one of her favorite pastimes. Above all, she enjoyed spending time with her family, especially at large family gatherings. We will miss the joy she brought to our lives, but her spirit will live on in the hearts of those who loved her.
Visiting hours at the William J. Gormley Funeral Home, 2055 Centre St. West Roxbury on Thursday, June 26th from 4-8pm. Funeral from the funeral home on Friday, June 27th at 9am followed by a Funeral Mass in Sacred Heart Church, 169 Cummins Highway Roslindale. Relatives and friends invited.
