Patricia (Flynn) Phillips lifetime resident of Georgetown, MA passed away peacefully on July 9th at the Care Dimensions Hospice in Lincoln, MA. Over the last two years of her life, she was lovingly cared for by her family during challenging days with her health. Daughter of the late Patrick Flynn and Barbara (Morse) Flynn of Georgetown, she is survived by her siblings: Janet Bartlett of Georgetown; David (Butch) Flynn and his wife Lorraine of Topsfield; Judy Dusombre and the late Fred Dusombre of Plaistow, NH. She is also survived by four loving children and their families: Brian Phillips McEnany and spouse Dr. Geoffry McEnany of Charlestown;
Michael Phillips and his life partner Norma Ferdinando of Chester, NH; David Phillips of Rowley, MA; Elizabeth Shepard and spouse Gary Shepard of Georgetown, MA. She is also survived by two grandchildren and four great grandchildren. Pat (also known as
Mama Pat by her extended family and friends) took great pride in her hometown of Georgetown, MA where she was raised on her family’s farm in a home that was shared by four generations under one roof. An equally powerful source of pride for her were her
children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She highly valued the gifts that came with family life. For more than 20 years, she was employed by AT&T/Lucent as a fiber optics technician. During her entire tenure at AT&T/Lucent, she never missed a day of work, something that was acknowledged and rewarded in tangible ways by the company leadership; another source of pride for her. An avid, talented and dedicated baker, she generously shared her gifts with family, friends and others in her life. She loved cooking and always explored new ways of improving her skills, all to the benefit of others. She carried on family traditions up to the last holiday season in her life, preparing gifts of food that became a large part of her holiday giving. She was known as a generous woman who was always quick to offer help to those less fortunate than herself. She had many great strengths coupled with powerful determination, both of which aided her during times of difficulty and challenge. These qualities helped her navigate the many obstacles to her health over the last two years of her life. Those who were fortunate enough to have known her would agree on how sadly she will be missed.
