Elizabeth “Liz” Louise Ahearn, 76, a resident of Hopkinton, and formerly of Framingham and Natick, died Tuesday, March 11, 2025 surrounded by her family, after a short, hard fought illness. Born in Natick, she was the daughter of the late Charles & Elizabeth (McCarthy) Ahearn.
Liz grew up in Natick where she attended St. Patrick’s Catholic School. She worked for many years as a sales associate at Sears, and later retired from TJX.
Nothing made Liz happier than being a mother and grandmother. Generous to a fault, she would go without to make sure those she loved didn’t. She found joy in time spent with family, shopping, a good meal, and celebrating holidays. Her cat Smudge, came a close second to family.
Liz is survived by her sons, James & his wife Denise of Blackstone, and Joseph & his wife Kim of Milford, her grandchildren, James, Nicholas, Chistopher, Ember, and Joey, and many nieces and nephews. Besides her parents, Liz was predeceased by her sibllings, Charlie “Buddy”, Dorothy, Mary, Barbara, and Janet.
Family and friends are invited to honor and remember Liz’s life by gathering for visiting hours in the Norton, McKinney & Lawler Funeral Home, 53 Beech Street, Framingham on Friday, March 21st from 4-7PM. Her Funeral Mass will be celebrated in St. Patrick’s Church, 44 E. Central St. Natick on Saturday morning at 10 o’clock. Interment will follow in St. Patrick Cemetery, Natick.
