Eunice M. (Boss)
Callan, 94
Worcester - Eunice M. (Boss) Callan, 94, of Worcester, passed peacefully into the loving hands of her Lord on Tuesday, February 19, 2013, surrounded by her loving family. She was the beloved wife of Joseph Callan who passed in 1992 and with whom she shared 52 years of marriage.
She was born in Auburn, MA, daughter of the late Joseph and Louisa (Picard) Boss. She graduated South High School, Worcester and worked for many years in her sister's owned business - Black & White Restaurant, Spencer, MA. She also worked for several years at American Bank Stationery in Auburn, MA from which she retired.
A loving mother and aunt, she leaves two daughters, Mary Ann Belliveau of Old Orchard Beach, ME and Kathleen Callan of Worcester, MA with whom she lived; son-in-law Richard Sand of Old Orchard Beach, ME; many loving nieces and nephews; and her cherished cat, Molly. She also leaves many, many friends that she has met throughout her very blessed long and healthy life. She was predeceased in death by her beloved daughter, Elizabeth Callan; one brother, Louis Boss; and four sisters, Elizabeth Gallant, Jeanette Morrill, Lena Bergeron, and Claire Dulmaine.
She was a member of Our Lady of the Angels Church. Eunice was a faithful Christian person who cherished her family and faith. Her family, immediate, extended and "chosen" were truly her life. She enjoyed life to the fullest and her smile and laugh were infectious. She enjoyed travel throughout her life, traveling with her husband and family throughout the United States, South America and especially her trips to Hawaii and the Islands with her daughters. She was always ready for a trip to Foxwoods, not only for the sport but because it meant a fun day with family and friends. Because of her, we will carry many great pictures and stories of her that will bring happy thoughts to mind for the rest of our lives.
The family wishes to thank the staff of Jewish Healthcare Center, Beaumont Rehabilitation Center and especially the very kind and loving staff of St. Vincent Hospital for the care that they have given our loved one.
The funeral will be held on Thursday, February 21 from the Alfred Roy & Sons Funeral Home 12 Hammond St. with a Mass at 10:30 AM in Our Lady of the Angels Church 1222 Main Street. Burial will follow in Saint John's Cemetery. A calling hour will be held from 9 to 10 AM in the funeral home on Thursday. The family suggests that in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in her name to Abby's House, 52 High Street, Worcester, MA, 01609.
