Obituary

With love and sadness, we share that Rosemary (Higgins) Rigo passed away July 6, 2023 just weeks shy of her 97th birthday.

A longtime Braintree resident, Rosemary built a vibrant life with her loving husband, business colleague, and dancing partner of 68 years, Joseph A. Rigo (deceased: July 2018). There they raised a loving family of three children and developed multiple business ventures, most notably the eclectic antique store Dusty Corners.

Keeping her love alive are children Marianne Rigo of Jefferson, Noreen Clifford (Richard) of East Dennis, and Steven Rigo (Paulette) of Newnan, GA; grandchildren Lauren Clifford Knudsen (Jonathan) of Irvington, NY, Anthony Rigo (Melissa) of New Bern, NC, Eric Rigo of Pasadena, CA and Molly Shea of Irvington, NY; and great grandchildren Liam Knudsen, Ethan Knudsen, Kensley Rigo and Brody Rigo.

Rosemary’s life will be celebrated privately.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donations in her name to
Autumn Hospice in Norwell or to the
Alzheimer's Association of MA/NH.
