Noreen was a proud alumna of Mount Saint Joseph Academy, “The Mount”, in Brighton, Massachusetts, and continued her education at the Chandler School for Women in Boston. She dedicated her professional career to the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission in Quincy, where she worked tirelessly to support individuals with disabilities.
Noreen found great joy in traveling and shopping, pursuits that allowed her to explore new places and create cherished memories. Above all, she treasured the relationships she built throughout her life.
Noreen was predeceased by her husbands, Robert E. Lee and John K. Connolly. She is survived by her loving children and grandchildren: her daughter, Laura Connolly Briere, and her husband, Kevin Briere, and granddaughters MiKayla and Andreea; her son, John L. Connolly, and his wife, Lesley Bancroft Connolly, and granddaughters Jessica and Brennan; and her son, Douglas J. Connolly, and his wife, Maureen Reilly Connolly, and grandchildren Meghan, Nolan, and Liam.
Services will be held at St. Michael Cemetery in Boston, Massachusetts, at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations in Noreen’s memory be made to Hope Hospice, 9470 HealthPark Circle, Fort Myers, FL 33908 or online https://hopehospice.org/donate/ .
