Evangeline Boyle Obituary
Evangeline, known as Anne or Annie to most, was a strong member of her community. She served as Chaplain for the local Elks Lodge was a consistent supporter of Mansfield athletics. She enjoyed spending time with friends and being outdoors as well as quiet moments at home. Most importantly, Anne loved to spend time with her daughter, Madeline. Being a mother was her biggest pride, and this showed through her unwavering support of everything Maddie wished to accomplish. Anne also opened her heart and home to her nieces and nephews over the years. She was the embodiment of unconditional love and spent her life caring for those around her.
She is survived by her daughter Madeline, her siblings Kenneth and Vicki Boyle, Brenda-Jean and Mark Paradis and Michael and Danielle Leighton, her many nieces and nephews, her ex-wife Mary Anne Greenwood, and step-son Eric Hanson. She was predeceased by her brother Bradford Boyle, sister Denise Young, her mother Eleanor-Jean Leighton and father Rev. Kenneth Boyle.
Relatives and friends are cordially invited to attend visiting hours on Sunday, August 17th from 4:00-7:00 P.M. at the Sherman & Jackson Funeral Home, 55 North Main Street, Mansfield.
Her funeral service, accompanied by military honors will be held on Monday, August 18th at 10:45 A.M. at the Massachusetts National Cemetery, Connery Avenue, Bourne. Those attending her services are asked to please go directly to the cemetery and arrive by 10:30 A.M.

Those of us who have worked with Anne over the years at VA Maine were heartbroken to hear of her passing. I will always remember her dedication to her fellow Veterans and her willingness to literally go the extra mile for them serving the entire New England region. Our thoughts are with her family during this difficult time. May the memories you shared together bring comfort and peace. Sending our condolences from the VA Maine Spinal Cord Injury/Disorders Clinic.

I worked with Anne for the last 9 years at the VA. She was such a pleasure to interact with and she helped many of my Veteran's with limb loss adjust to disability and drive again. She was sweet and loved by the Vets but commanded respect at the same time which is a rare quality. I will miss her very much and you have my deepest condolences.
