Ethel L.(Ford) Currie of Medway, MA died April 26, 2020 at the age of 95. She was born in Marlborough, New Hampshire on January 1, 1925. With much fondness she always remembered her 'Shangri-La' at Stone Pond, Marlborough where she lived with her parents Robert A and Ednah (Chamberlain) Ford, her brother Bob, her sister Peggy Rollins who lives in Troy, New Hampshire and her sister Gwen Yardley who lives in Walpole, New Hampshire. She was the wife of George R. Currie who passed in 1997, mother of Judie Pepin from Medway MA who now resides in Weare, NH and Nancy Murray who resides in Pocatello, ID.
When she graduated from high school, nurses were badly needed during WWII and she became a Cadet Nurse graduating from Newton Wellesley Hospital in MA. She spent many years working in hospital nurseries in the Boston area and finished off her long nursing career at Boston Lying-In Hospital. A woman of deep faith she was the kindest person who always remembered someone with a card which she frequently would slip under the resident's doors at Mahan Circle where she lived. Everyone who knew her always said she was the sweetest most caring person they ever met and had a great sense of humor. She celebrated her 90th birthday by surprising everyone and going zip-lining. She loved to read, crochet, knit, her pets and spent quite a bit of time traveling or fishing with her husband before he passed after 50 years of marriage.
