Frances B. Mahon

November 5, 2019

Frances “Bobbie” Mahon (nee Bobrowski), age 91, died Tuesday, November 5, 2019 of natural causes. She was a resident of Evergreen Health Care Center in Stafford Springs, CT. Bobbie, the last of the four Bobrowski sisters, grew up during the Great Depression. She went on to become a registered nurse, caring for many wounded military men and women after WW II at the VA Hospital in New London. It was there that she learned her life-long motto, “laughter is your best medicine.” She went on to care for many patients, especially the elderly later in life, where her level headed, compassionate care touched people of all ages. Bobbie was an avid golfer, which she played with her late husband Chuck. She enjoyed reading, knitting and puzzles, but her greatest joy was spending time with her family members, laughing, talking and focusing on the positive. She was a loving mother, and leaves behind her four children, Mary (Mahon) Doner and her husband Cal of Littleton, CO, Franceen (Mahon) Munson and her husband Paul of Stafford Springs, CT, Patrick Mahon and his wife Laurie of Somers, CT, and Kathleen (Mahon) Zelz and her husband Michael of Stafford Springs, CT; as well as her ten grandchildren; and seven great grandchildren.
