HENRY P. “HANK” McLAUGHLIN, of Woburn, passed away peacefully on January 12, 2026, at the age of ninety-three.

Born and raised in Medford, Hank was the son of the late Patrick Henry and Nora (Clancy) McLaughlin. He was a graduate of Medford High School, Class of 1950, and later enlisted in the US Army, serving in the Korean War, stationed in Japan.

Hank was the beloved husband of the late Shirley (Terban) McLaughlin and the late Evelyn J. (Robinson) McLaughlin.

He married his first love, Evelyn, in 1958 and later moved to Gayle St. in the west side of Woburn where they raised their young family.

After the passing of Evelyn, Hank was fortunate to find love again with Shirley, with whom he shared many happy years, including cherished retirement years spent in Florida. Together they enjoyed family gatherings, travel, and time well spent with loved ones.

Hank worked for many years with Frito-Lay and was a proud member of the Local Teamsters, eventually retiring in 1994. He was actively involved in the community and was a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Elks, and the Jaycees in Woburn.

A devoted sports fan, Hank was a lifelong supporter of all Boston sports teams. He also enjoyed simple pleasures — time with family, good conversation, and the routines that made life meaningful to him. He was very proud of the family he created and was always making sure “the kids were all right,” even up until his last days.

Hank was a loving father to Eileen J. McLaughlin of Andover, Noreen Gorham and her husband Richard of Billerica, and the late Brian H. McLaughlin. He was a devoted stepfather to Michael E. Molliver of Walpole, Russel and Andrea Molliver, and the late Ruth N. Molliver.

He was a treasured grandfather to Christina McLaughlin and her fiancé Mo Russell, Kayla Iodice and her husband David, Cassie and Meghan Gorham, Matthew Molliver, and William and Marissa Molliver, and a proud great-grandfather to AJ, Kyle, Jackson, Rylie, and Reese.

Robert “Bozzi” Cogan, of Woburn, passed away suddenly on Wednesday, January 14th, at the age of 79. He was the beloved husband of 51 years to the late Lorraine (Fiumara) Cogan, with whom he shared a lifetime of love, devotion, and companionship.

Born and raised in Woburn, Robert was the cherished son of the late Ralph and Mary Elizabeth (Canney) Cogan. He was a proud graduate of Woburn High School and went on to serve his country in the United States Army for one year.

Bozzi was a devoted family man whose greatest joy was his family. He was the loving father of Valerie Cogan and her partner Jason Power, and Meredith Olson and her husband Donald, all of Woburn. He was the proud and cherished grandfather of Sofia, Jenna, Matthew, and Madison, and took great pride in attending their sporting events, always cheering them on from the sidelines.

After returning from the Army, Robert worked at a local Woburn tannery before starting his own business running a canteen truck route throughout the North Shore of Massachusetts. A hardworking man his entire life, he later built a long career in inventory control at United Stationers, where he eventually retired. He took great pride in an honest day’s work and in providing for his family.

One special evening out dancing changed his life forever when he shared a dance with a young woman named Lorraine. From that moment on, they were inseparable. They married in 1969 and chose Woburn as the place to build their home and raise their family. Together they enjoyed traveling throughout New England and beyond, often taking scenic rides to coastal towns in search of the perfect lobster roll. They also loved spending time with family, hosting poker nights with friends, and attending music festivals where Bozzi could often be found enjoying the music and dancing alongside Lorraine.

Robert had a deep appreciation for the outdoors. He enjoyed golfing, hiking, spending time at the beach, and especially nature photography, often searching for birds and capturing the beauty around him. He and Lorraine also treasured their winters spent in Fort Myers, creating lasting memories together.

A loyal Boston sports fan, Bozzi followed all the hometown teams, but nothing brought him more joy than watching his grandchildren play sports. Kind, devoted, and full of life, Robert will be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend.

He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him, but his legacy of family, hard work, and fun-loving, wild-at-heart spirit will live on in the hearts of those he leaves behind.

Calling hours will be held in the Lynch-Cantillon Funeral Home, 263 Main St., Woburn, on Thursday, January 22nd, from 4 – 7 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bozzi’s memory to the Tanner Ta Ta Foundation, 100 Tower Office Park, Unit F, Woburn, MA 01801.

Family was always Hank’s top priority, and he was known for always putting their needs first.

For many years, Hank was a dedicated Pop Warner Football coach and took great pride in the teams he coached. In his free time, he enjoyed tinkering in the garage, where he could often be found working on his beloved Firebird, a car he was incredibly proud of and truly loved. Hank was also well known for making his famous homemade raviolis, a family tradition that will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed.

Hank shared an especially close and playful bond with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved fooling around with them, always making them laugh with his jokes, humor, and gentle mischief. He was one of their biggest supporters, rarely missing an opportunity to cheer them on, encourage them, or simply spend time together. To them, he was not only “Grumpy,” but also a constant source of love, laughter, and unwavering support.

Hank was the cherished father of Corinne Dwyer and her husband, Shawn, of Londonderry, NH; Brian Milo and his wife, Elaine, of Billerica; and Janinne Nocco and her husband, Steven, of Tyngsboro. He was the dear brother of Joanne M. Downing and her husband, Richard, of Woburn.

Above all, Hank was a devoted family man who deeply loved those around him and will be forever missed.

Denise Jacqueline (Bates) Guarino, of Bartlett, New Hampshire (formerly of Woburn, Massachusetts), passed away peacefully on January 11, 2026, at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, surrounded by her loving family and lifelong friends, at the age of 66.

Born on October 8, 1959, in Chelsea, Massachusetts, Denise was raised in Medford, where she formed deep, lifelong friendships and a profound love for family and community. She was the beloved daughter of the late Daniel J. Bates and Catherine (Mulcahy) Bates, and a proud graduate of Medford High School.

Denise was the devoted wife of Gerald Joseph “Jerry” Guarino. Together for nearly 49 years and married for 45, they built a remarkable life of love, partnership, and resilience. As entrepreneurs in the restaurant industry, they worked side by side with unwavering determination and heart—starting with a small sub shop, expanding to two sub shops and a restaurant, scaling back to one, thriving with a successful catering business, and finally running a beloved café near their Woburn home until 2021. Denise’s strong work ethic, leadership, and warmth touched everyone she encountered.

In 1983, Denise and Jerry moved to Woburn to raise their family, living in the same cherished home until this past summer, when they made the joyful transition to full-time life in the beautiful mountains of Bartlett, NH. There, they built a welcoming home where their daughters and grandchildren could gather—creating cherished traditions like every Thanksgiving together and countless weekends “up north at Nana and Grandpa’s.”

Above all, Denise cherished her family. She was a devoted mother to Danielle J. Farnkoff and her husband Eric of Reading, MA; Melissa A. Hayter and her husband Christopher of North Reading, MA; Alicia J. Boisvert and her husband Patrick of Goffstown, NH; and Mikaela J. Boisvert and her husband Richard of Woburn, MA. She was the proud and adoring “Nana” to her nine grandchildren: Ella, Logan, Bentley, Liam, Colton, Patrick, Joseph, Isabella, and Savannah—who brought her endless joy and were the absolute center of her world. She showered them with the biggest hugs and kisses, calling them “Dolly Face” and “Sweet Cheeks,” shared silly “Nana” jokes, and tucked them in with her special words: “Good Night, Sweet Dreams, God Protect you and I Love you”—a tradition carried from her own children to the next generation.

Denise was strong, determined, and a true warrior—an advocate who never hesitated to help others or stand up for those she loved. She had a vibrant, joyful spirit: she loved to sing and dance (especially to Céline Dion and Shania Twain), embraced fashion with her favorite stilettos and colorful outfits, enjoyed shopping, creating ceramics and crafts, bowling in a league, and hosting unforgettable gatherings. Her home sparkled with holiday decorations, and she was an amazing hostess and cake maker.

Raised Catholic, faith was important to her; she lit a candle in every church she visited during her travels. She had just begun fulfilling her dream of traveling the world with Jerry, friends, and family. Denise also held dear her lifelong friend Ann Doheney and her husband James of Laconia, NH.

Denise is survived by her siblings: William Bates (and his late wife Phyllis) of Maryland; Robert Bates and his wife Sandra of Medford, MA; Mark Bates and his wife Kathy of Medford, MA; Maureen Howe and her husband Robert of Medford, MA; Brian Bates and his wife Joan of Medford, MA; Andrea Bates of Wakefield, MA; Pamela Hale and her husband Jeff of Alabama; and Kim Pease and her husband Robert of Stoneham, MA. She was predeceased by her brother Daniel Bates and his late wife Denise Bates.

She is also survived by her brothers- and sisters-in-law: Vincent Guarino (and his former wife Susan) of NH; Tina Guarino of NH; Maria Hudson and her husband Raymond of Burlington, MA; and Stephanie Hewett and her husband Patrick of Bellingham, MA. She was predeceased by her brother-in-law Raymond Guarino.

Denise leaves behind many loving nieces, nephews, grandnieces, grandnephews, cousins, and dear friends.

Her Funeral Mass will be celebrated in St. Malachy Church in St. Veronica Parish, 99 Bedford Street, Burlington, on Wednesday, January 21st, at 10:00 a.m. Following the Mass, a Celebration of Life will be held, where family and friends are invited to gather with the family. Burial will take place at the convenience of the family. Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to pay their respects on Tuesday, January 20th, from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. in the Lynch-Cantillon Funeral Home, 263 Main Street, Woburn. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the American Lung Association in support of research for the causes and cures of ARDS and ILD, American Lung Association, Donation Processing Center, PO Box 70360, Philadelphia, PA 19176-0360

Denise’s legacy lives on in the love she gave so freely, the family she nurtured, and the joy she spread. She will be deeply missed but forever in our hearts.

MATTHEW J. DRISCOLL, of Woburn, passed away on January 13, after a courageous battle with cancer, at the age of 15.
Born in Boston and raised in Woburn, Matthew was the cherished son of Chad and Eve (Lawlor) Driscoll of Woburn. He was a treasured and loving big brother to Sarah and Rory, who meant the world to him.

Matthew attended grammar school at St. Raphael School in Medford and was in his sophomore year at Arlington Catholic High School. He was proud to be part of the Arlington Catholic community and was known as an accomplished, dedicated student and loyal friend.

Matthew was strong, brave, and quietly resilient. He rarely shared the full extent of his illness and chose to live fully and focus on the things he loved. An avid athlete, Matthew grew up playing sports in Woburn, including soccer, baseball, golf and lacrosse. Matthew's biggest passion was hockey. He learned to play hockey in Woburn's City League and represented Woburn as a Mite and continued through Bantam level. He also enjoyed volunteering with the Challenger program, helping others to learn and love the sport that brought him so much happiness.

In addition to playing for the city of Woburn, Matthew also played for the North Shore Shamrocks hockey program. He was a committed teammate who brought energy, effort, and kindness wherever he went. Matthew was a three-sport athlete at Arlington Catholic, playing soccer, hockey and baseball while also being an Honors student.

Despite actively battling cancer for nearly three years, Matthew was able to continue competing and participating in all activities until just a few weeks ago. This reflects the determination and heart that defined Matthew throughout his life.

Matthew was incredibly responsible and hardworking, even from a young age. Matthew’s first official job was a daily paper route in Woburn, a job he took seriously and carried out with dedication and pride. Neighbors often saw him riding his bike or rollerblades to deliver papers in the afternoons, sometimes wearing his baseball uniform if it was game day. At home Matthew was dedicated to mowing the lawn, shoveling snow, and many other projects. For the past 11 years, Matthew helped build & maintain the family's backyard rink. Skating on the backyard rink with his sisters was one of Matthew’s favorite things to do. He spent hours practicing shots and moves and loved the pick-up style games with his friends and sisters that continued into the moonlight. Among family, Matthew was also known for baking his favorite cookies – snickerdoodles – and had perfected his late Nana’s braided cardamom bread recipe.

Recently Confirmed, Matthew’s faith was an important part of who he was, and it gave him strength, comfort, and courage throughout his journey.

Matthew was the beloved grandson of Joseph Lawlor of Arlington and the late Susan Lawlor, and the late John and Mary Driscoll of North Andover. He was the loving nephew of Ryan Lawlor and his wife Allison of Medford; Alison Russell and her husband Kevin of Arlington; Beth Blanchard and her husband Dave of Bradford, MA; Dan Driscoll and his wife Rina of Colorado Springs, Colorado; Brian Driscoll and his wife Jackie of Derry, NH; Ken Driscoll and his wife Cathy of St. Petersburg, Florida; and the late John Driscoll and his wife Ellen of Methuen. He is also survived by many loving cousins, friends, and teammates.

Matthew will also be deeply missed by his beloved dog, Shamrock, his constant companion.

His Funeral Mass will be celebrated in St. Raphael Church, 512 High Street, Medford, on Thursday, January 22, at 10:00 a.m. Burial will follow in Mount Auburn Cemetery, Cambridge. Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to calling hours on Wednesday, January 21, from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. in the Lynch-Cantillon Funeral Home, 263 Main Street, Woburn.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Matthew’s memory to the Jimmy Fund at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The family also encourages those who are able to consider donating blood or platelets, as these life-saving gifts are always in critical need for patients undergoing cancer treatment.

DIANNE M. “DEE” (DUNNIGAN) MACDONALD, of Reading, formerly of Woburn, passed away suddenly on January 9, 2026, at the age of eighty-two.

Born and raised in Woburn, Dianne was the beloved daughter of the late Harold and Margaret (McNeil) Dunnigan. She was a graduate of Woburn High School, Class of 1961.

Dee met the love of her life, Edward MacDonald when she was in high school. Although they could never agree on whether they went to her prom together, they quickly became inseparable. They married in 1973 and, together, they built a life rooted in devotion to one another, their home, and, above all, their family.

Family was the heart of Dee’s world. A caregiver by nature, she took great pride and joy in looking after those she loved, always putting others’ needs before her own. Her kindness, generosity, and steady presence were felt by everyone fortunate enough to know her.

Summers were especially cherished and were spent at the family cottage in Hampton Beach, often with a pack of nieces and nephews filling every available inch of floor space. Summers at Hampton made lasting memories for multiple generations of the MacDonald and Dunnigan families.

Dee was well known for her love of car rides with Ed, exploring backroads and discovering new places and local restaurants to try. She loved yard sales and bargain hunting and took pride in uncovering hidden gems and turning simple finds into treasured additions to her home.

Above all else, Dee valued time spent with her family and took immense pride in her role as a grandmother. She and Ed were there from the day their granddaughters were born, and Dee quickly became an expert in all things twin. They were the girls’ primary caregivers while their parents worked, taking them to the library or the beach and embracing the chaos that took over their home.

Dee was a devoted and loving mother to Eryn MacDonald and her husband James Davis of Reading, and Erica MacDonald of Reading. She was a cherished and proud grandmother to Fyn and Lis Davis, who brought her endless joy. Dee was the dear sister of Richard Dunnigan and his wife Sally of Virginia, and the late Keith Dunnigan and his wife Judith of Connecticut. She is also lovingly remembered by many nieces and nephews.

Arrangements are private and under the direction of the Lynch-Cantillon Funeral Home, 263 Main Street, Woburn, MA 01801. In lieu of flowers, remembrances may be made in Dee’s memory to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
