Anne E. Blanchard of Hingham passed on December 9, 2019 from complications of a heart attack. Born to parents Francis & Ann Shea and raised in Dorchester, Anne was a true Boston girl.

Anne donated handsomely in numerous ways to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and ASPCA - Prevention of Animal Cruelty and several other charities through the years.
