Kelly SwanfeldtDec. 19, 1966 – July 27, 2024

Marlborough – Kelly Rose Swanfeldt, a longtime resident of Marlboro, MA and formerly of Hudson, passed away peacefully on Saturday, July 27, 2024 at the age of 57, at UMass Memorial Hospital in Worcester, after a brief battle with cancer and diverticulitis.

Kelly is survived by her beloved husband, Richard (Rick) Swanfeldt, and her sisters: Christine Murphy and husband Jay of Sarasota, FL, and Sherril Morse of Sarasota, FL. Kelly was predeceased by her parents, Doris (Leger) and Gilbert Randall and her two nephews Matthew Holmes and Eric Swanfeldt, whom she loved dearly. Kelly will also be missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family and an incredible amount of friends.

Kelly graduated from Assabet Valley Regional Vocational Technical High School in 1984. After high school, Kelly had an administrative career for many years at Raytheon, SMOC and most recently at Valvoline Metro-Lube in Marlboro.

Kelly enjoyed her annual trips with her friends and family to Salisbury beach and to Mexico/Aruba. She also enjoyed time on her boat in her backyard on the lake, especially during her and Rick’s 30+ year, annual 4th of July party!!! Kelly and Rick were also masters of gardening. Their flowers were impeccable, and they both took pride in their tomato and pepper plants, always sharing with others.

Kelly was always giving of her time. She put her heart into organizing multiple charity golf tournaments throughout the years to support others in need. Her favorite part was putting together gift baskets for the raffles and creating gift bags for participants.

But it was family and friends that meant the most to her. Kelly was always the coolest Aunt and she adored her nieces and nephews. Kelly was also an amazing friend. Kelly was always smiling and made friends wherever she went. Everyone knew and loved Kelly. She will truly be missed by all who loved her.

Viewing hours will be held at Tighe Hamilton Funeral Home in Hudson on Wednesday, July 31, from 9 am -12 pm with a short service following. At Kelly’s request we will be hosting a “PARTY” at “Kelly’s Korner” at the Bolton Street Tavern on 587 Bolton St in Marlborough, MA immediately after services.
