Jean Murphy Obituary

With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Jean Murphy of Swansea, Massachusetts, who passed away on March 31, 2026. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Jean Murphy to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid Jean farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Jean is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

Murphy; her children, Jocelyn Medeiros of Somerset, Meaghan Nicolay (Tyler) of Somerset and Cassandra (Scott Davison) of Somerset; her sister Donna Harrington of Somerset; and her grandchildren, Bailey Smith and Alannah Davison.
