Paula M. Parker

Paula Mae (Mostecki) Parker, 80, of North Easton, formerly of Wayland, passed away on December 19, 2023 after a sudden heart attack and 13-year struggle with dementia. She is preceded by her beloved husband of 43 years, Robert G. Parker, her parents, Peter and Alexandria "Olga" (Komorek) Mostecki, and brother, Robert Mostecki.
Born June 27, 1943 in Worcester, Paula was raised in Natick and proudly graduated from Natick High School in 1961. She was a devoted homemaker, caretaker to elderly dementia patients, and an instrumental force behind the family business, Parker Business Products. She loved gardening, cooking, and entertaining.
Paula adored her family and friends and constantly hosted - she made each gathering special, from every holiday to impromptu visits. She always had a smile on her face, a song in her heart, and a gentle warmth that made everyone feel at home.
Paula is survived by her two children, Lauren O'Donnell and her husband Michael of North Easton and Keith Parker and his wife Sheryl of Northboro; her twin brother, Peter Mostecki of Clinton, and sister, Barbara Bell of Dartmouth; and six grandchildren, Elisabeth, Grace, Catherine, and Emma O'Donnell, and Jason and Meaghan Parker.
She cherished her sisters- and brothers-in-law, as well as over 30 nieces and nephews, their spouses and children, and countless extended family and friends who knew her as "Grandmum." Her sweet soul will be deeply missed.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend a Memorial Mass on Thursday, January 4, 2024 at 10:30 a.m. in the Holy Cross Church, 225 Purchase Street, Easton, MA. In lieu of flowers donations in Paula's memory may be sent to Alzheimer's Association (https://www.alz.org/) or a charity of your choice. Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of the Kane Funeral Home & Cremation Services in Easton.
