Seekonk – Maureen A. (Duffy) Powers, 70, passed away peacefully on Thursday, January 9, 2025 after a courageous battle with dementia. She was the beloved wife of Glen Powers for fifty beautiful years. Born in Pawtucket, she was the daughter of the late Raymond, Sr. and Gina (Giuntini) Duffy.
Maureen graduated in 1972 from Tolman High School, Pawtucket, and resided in Seekonk for over thirty years. She last worked as a secretary in the guidance department at Seekonk High School for fifteen years. Her work extended far beyond her secretarial duties and straight into the hearts of the students whom she loved working with. Maureen found solace in her garden of beautiful flowers and decorating her home during the holidays. She was avid animal lover and enjoyed traveling with her high school sweetheart throughout New England, along with frequent trips to Canada and a memorable one to Ireland. Maureen’s presence, light and smile will be dearly missed by the lives she has touched.
In addition to her devoted husband, she is survived by a beloved son, Patrick Powers of Seekonk; a brother, Stephen Duffy of Virginia and many cousins, nieces, nephews and dear friends.
Her funeral was held on Sunday, January 26th, and began with visitation at 2:00 p.m. and concluded with Services at 4:00 p.m. in WILLIAM W. TRIPP Funeral Home, 1008 Newport Ave., Pawtucket. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to HopeHealth Hospice & Palliative Care, 1085 N. Main St., Providence, RI 02904 would be appreciated.
