Maureen A. (Raimo) Hennigan passed away peacefully on Wednesday, May 20th at Tufts Medical Center of Boston. She was 66. A life-long Medford resident, Maureen was the beloved daughter of Jacqueline (McGlynn) Raimo and the late Frank J. Raimo.
Maureen was a devoted mother, grandmother, sister and friend. She enjoyed a thirty year career with Medford Public Schools in the food service department. She had the distinction of cooking in each of Medford’s schools throughout her years. Over the decades of her service, she took on more and more managerial and administrative responsibilities. She was beloved by both the students and her co-workers. Not only was she a great cook at work, she was a great cook at home and enjoyed preparing and sharing delicious meals with everyone she loved. Always with a song in her heart and on her lips, Maureen kept a welcoming home for her large family and many friends. She enjoyed trips to Maine, the company of her dogs, sharing a cup of coffee with her friends, but most of all her children and grandchildren were the center of her life.
