Jean Waugh Obituary

NEW BRAINTREE- Jean S. Waugh,97, on June 21, 2017, as the sun was coming up, she continued her journey surrounded by loved ones. She was born in Watertown, MA in 1920 and her family moved to New Braintree when she was a young girl. Jean trained as a registered nurse and worked in that profession before marrying Clifton "Kip" M. Waugh in 1945. Jean devoted her whole heart to her family and home. Together, Jean and Kip raised four children and ran a dairy farm, which they later transitioned to a Christmas Tree Farm. During those years, Jean also worked as a secretary for the New Braintree Congregational Church and the Tri-Parish Community Church. Jean was an excellent cook, food preservationist, and enjoyed taking brisk walks in town. She crocheted hundreds of baby afghans for her family, friends, and local hospitals. Jean is predeceased by her husband and best friend Kip, her beloved son Kenneth M. Waugh, and her very dear grandson, David Nimtz. She leaves behind her daughter, Shirley A. Nimtz and her husband, Kevin of New Braintree; her son Russell R. Waugh and his wife Carol of Greenbelt,MD; her son Douglas A. Waugh and his wife Marion L. of New Braintree; 4 grandchildren and their spouses; 5 great-grandchildren and a sixth due in October; loving nieces, nephews, and numerous other relatives. Jean believed she was very fortunate to have lived a long and healthy life. Our family was blessed to have been loved and cared for by her kind spirit.
