Kathleen Mary Colleran

Kathleen Colleran of Jaffrey NH, formerly of Westwood MA, died November 30. She was born in Dorchester, MA, on October 8, 1944, daughter to the late Thomas and Mary (Walsh) Colleran.

She is survived by her loving sister, Ellen Colleran, her nephew Thomas Troy of Brevard, NC, and her nieces Ellen Arnold of Blufton, SC, and Susan Molloy of New York City.

She is predeceased by her sisters Mary Troy and Claire Molloy.

Kathleen attended St. Gregory’s School in Dorchester, MA, and graduated from Catherine Laboure with her Nursing degree. She worked as a nurse at Norwood Hospital and the VA Hospital in West Roxbury, MA, and was always willing to take the holiday shifts so others could enjoy their time off. Kathleen retired from nursing in 2001 and moved to the family home in Jaffrey NH.

She was an avid knitter and made beautiful gifts for family and friends. She loved picking blueberries and baking up wonderful treats for the family.

Kathleen was a person of faith and the church was a large part of her life.

She enjoyed spending time with her family and in particular The Driscoll Family who visited regularly, provided lots of entertainment and were always there to help her to understand the technology of the modern world.

The funeral will be held at St. Patrick’s Church in Jaffrey, NH, on Saturday, December 7 at 11:00AM.
