Marilyn A. Browne

Marilyn A. Browne (Clement) of Norwell, 82, formerly a longtime Hingham resident, passed away August 24, 2018, surrounded by her loving family. The beloved wife of 63 years to Robert F.  Browne. Cherished mother of Robert F. Browne, Jr and his wife Jackie of Sandwich, Kathleen B. Gilson, MD and her husband Geoffrey Gilson, MD of North Easton, David Browne and his wife Lisa of Hanover and Michael Browne and his wife Leslie of Walpole.  She was the devoted grandmother of 12 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.  Sister of Betty Browne and her husband Richard of PA and Warren Clement of FL.

Marilyn, who loved to cook for her family and friends, was the consummate hostess. We are still trying to figure out some of her secret recipes. She loved to crochet and made blankets for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  She worked as an administrative assistant for most of the last 40 years, including 20 years at Resurrection Church in Hingham where she was affectionately known as “the Queen.”  Her family and her faith were the foundation of all that was truly important to her. Marilyn will be remembered as a devoted wife, a cherished mother, a proud grandmother and great-grandmother and a faithful friend. She will be dearly missed by all those who were blessed to have known her. 

 Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend the visiting hours on Wednesday, August 29th from 4-8 PM in the Pyne Keohane Funeral Home, 21 Emerald St. (off Central St.), HINGHAM.

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at The Church of the Resurrection, Hingham at 11 AM on Thursday August 30th. Burial will be private.

In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Marilyn may be made to St. Vincent de Paul Society, or to Haiti180 – c/o Church of the Resurrection, 1057 Main Street, Hingham, MA 02043.
