Nancy Jean Schwartz, 72, of Franklin
1954 - 2026

Born on February 25, 1954, she was the daughter of the late Elizabeth (Jenks) and E. Richard Schwartz. Nancy was a longtime resident of Framingham for 65 years and was a proud graduate of Framingham South High School, Class of 1973.

Nancy worked for many years as an Electrical Assembler at Stratus Computer and Milford Manufacturing. She also spent time in retail, including long stints at Zayre’s and Stop & Shop. In more recent years, she was an active member of the Callahan Senior Center in Framingham, where she participated in quilting and sewing groups.

In her younger years, Nancy enjoyed league bowling and proudly earned multiple trophies. Above all else, she was a devoted and loving aunt who cherished time with her niece and nephews.

Nancy is survived by her brothers, Donald Schwartz and his wife Jeanne of Holliston, and Karl Schwartz and his wife Carol Estes-Schwartz of Bedford; her brother-in-law, Stephen Pauplis; her niece, Gretchen Schwartz; and her nephews, Erik, Mark, Nicholas, and Jay Oliver. She was predeceased by her sister, Kristine Schwartz-Pauplis.

A graveside service at Edgell Grove Cemetery in Framingham will be held in the spring.
