Christine Alice Molinaro – Age 60, died unexpectedly Saturday, April 8 at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
She was born in Concord, January 23, 1963, the beloved fourth daughter of Patricia (MacPherson) Sullivan and the late Paul Sullivan and grew up in North Easton. After graduating from the University of New Hampshire, she lived in West Newton and Acton before settling in Westford where she resided with her family for the past 23 years.
Christine was a self-employed Contract Recruiter for many years. In recent years, she used her eye for fashion to consign designer items that she would find at local thrift stores and online. She was always running to the mail room for packages and loved to share her knowledge with anyone who was interested. She could talk to anyone, but her real gift was her ability to make people laugh. Christine was the mom that all the kids loved to chat with and was great at getting them to talk. Her quick-witted jokes could catch you off guard, but made people gravitate to her. She loved animals and had a special place in her heart for her late dog Woody, who was her constant companion.
Besides her mother, Christine is survived by her two sons whom she adored with all her heart, Nicholas and Benjamin Molinaro of Westford. They will miss her dearly. She also leaves her sisters, Kathleen Sullivan of Merrimac, Anne Sullivan-Soydan of Acton, and Elizabeth Sullivan of Billerica, and her brother, Daniel Sullivan of Beverly. She was a doting aunt to her seven nieces and nephews, and leaves four brothers and sisters-in-law, aunts, uncles, and cousins who will cherish her memory as a curly haired “Miss Mouse” who was always ready to have fun. Christine was predeceased by her ex-husband Nicholas Molinaro who was a loving father and remained a close friend until his death.
At the request of the family funeral arrangements will be private. Memorial contributions may be made in Christine’s name to a fund set up in her memory in support of her two boys at Christine Molinaro Go Fund Me site.
