Obituary For Maureen E. (Blacker) Tibbetts
In Loving Memory of Maureen Elizabeth (Blacker) Tibbetts
Maureen Elizabeth (Blacker) Tibbetts, beloved mother, devoted grandmother, cherished sister, and faithful servant of God, passed away peacefully on February 16, 2025 at the age of 71. She was a woman of deep faith, unwavering love, and boundless kindness, touching the lives of all who knew her.
Born on November 30th in Boston, Maureen dedicated her life to faith, family, and service. As a devoted member of Holy Family Church in Rockland, she found great joy in her church community and cherished friendships made there, participating in choir, volunteer work, and Eucharistic ministry, always sharing her warmth and generosity with others.
Above all, Maureen was a loving mother to her daughter, Keri, and a caring mother-in-law to Michael. Her greatest joy was being a grandmother to her two grandsons, Michael and Anthony, whom she adored. She also shared a special bond with her beloved cat, Peanut, who was always by her side.
Maureen is survived by her daughter, Keri DeGloria, son-in-law, Michael, and grandsons, Michael and Anthony of Canton, MA. She also leaves behind her dear sister and best friend, Annmarie Jackson, and two loving brothers, John Blacker and his wife Jeanette, Steve Blacker and his wife Jean, along with many extended family members and close friends who will miss her dearly.
She is preceded in death by her parents John and Ann Blacker of Boston.
The Family wishes to welcome friends and family on Monday, February 24 at 8 AM at Magoun-Biggins Funeral Home, A funeral Mass will follow 9 AM at Holy Family Church followed by interment at Holy Family Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Pat Roche Hospice House, Hingham, MA in her honor and with sincere gratitude for the care she received there during her final days.
May she rest in the eternal peace of God’s love.

Maureen Tibbetts, was not only a co-worker, she was a great friend. She always loved my photography and poetry, As a tribute to her and all who loved her, I leave you all one of her favorites I wrote, back in 09' Originally titled: Redeemer. I now add Maureen's name to it as the main focus. I will also try to leave a photograph, she liked very much. Appropriately titled: "Embracing the light" Angel of Mercy has lifted thee, Far above this Earthly place. Fear not our sister Maureen, Your soul is his to take. For he is your Redeemer, You've taken hold of his hand. He'll now guide you past the clouds, To the Promised land. Far beyond the stratosphere, And the starlit skies, Through still Waters of forgiveness, With no questions why. For you will be rewarded, For all the goodness you've shared. In pastures of infinite love, With all you held dear. Your holy family welcomes you, And all will rejoice again. In a paradise of everlasting life, With loved ones and Friends. So fear not our sister Maureen, You are cleansed of all sin, You have now entered, The kingdom of Heaven, Let your eternal life begin. In loving memory of Maureen E. Tibbetts, Forever your friend John T. Volta (Jack)

To Maureen's daughter and family, Fred and I were shocked and so saddened to see that Maureen had passed away. Singing with her in the choir allowed us to develop a nice friendship and bond. She was always smiling and so filled with love for our Savior. May you find comfort in knowing she's safely in God's loving care. God bless you all.
