Lynne Connors Perry of Wellesley, MA, passed away in the early morning hours of December 30, 2025. Born to the late Robert E. and Carolyn G. Connors. She is survived by her husband, William H. Perry III and their sons, William H. Perry IV and Thomas R. Perry of Wellesley. She also leaves behind her brothers Robert E. Jr. of Megansett, Terence M. of Chatham and Christopher G. of Monument Beach, as well as many beloved nieces, nephews and cousins.
Lynne attended the St. Paul School in Wellesley, Mt. Alvernia High School in Chestnut Hill and Merrimack College in North Andover. She then pursued a long and successful career in the Greater Boston area, eventually retiring this past year. She enjoyed Summers down the Cape, was a lifetime Boston sports fan, an avid reader and a certified scuba diver. Lynne could often be found down by the water wherever she was. She adored animals, especially her dogs Finn and Del.
She leaves an indelible impression in the hearts of those lucky enough to cross paths with her. That twinkle in her eye, a life-of-the-party zest, and living in the moment attitude, along with her warrior-like determination that will always be remembered . . . until we meet again Lynne! Slainte!
Visitation at the George F. Doherty & Sons Funeral Home, 477 Washington St. Wellesley on Friday, January 16, from 4-7pm. A private interment will be held later this Spring.
