MANSFIELD, Marie J. (Duffy)Raised in Mattapan/Dorchester. Of Norwell, formerly of Quincy, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones on Thursday, June 30, 2022. Marie was born in Boston, MA, on November 21, 1953, to the late James and Grace Duffy (Shea). Raised in Dorchester, she graduated from St. Gregory Schools. She went on to earn her Associate’s Degree in Business from Quincy College.

She started her career in financial services in 1972 at Boston City Hospital, where she worked for 24 years, and briefly at Boston Medical Center.

Marie was a bright light and was known for her ability to sense when people needed her help. She touched so many lives with her generosity and passion for life. Nothing brought her greater joy than being a Nana to her two grandchildren.
