Marjorie (Marge) M. Muldoon, of Hingham, MA, died peacefully in her home, surrounded by her family, on Monday, September 16, 2024. She was the beloved wife of the late John P. Muldoon, Jr. Born in Boston, on June 14, 1928, she was the daughter of the late Henry and Ann (Hennessey) McAndrews.
A founding member and first president of the Codman Square Civic Association, Marge was an activist before the term existed. In the 1970’s she worked with concerned citizens and local politicians to improve her neighborhood. She led health care initiatives, beautification projects, petition drives, and block parties.
Commitment did not end in her neighborhood. Marge’s dedication to her faith played a significant role throughout her life. From St. Gregory’s and St. Mark’s, to St. Paul’s, her faith never wavered. Whether she was organizing trips, anniversary milestones, or serving as a Eucharistic minister, Marge knew the importance of parish life and its role in supporting the community it served.
Her social causes did not sway her from other interests. Marjorie was a graduate of Boston Business School; and after her family was grown, she served as a legal secretary for over 20 years.
One career Marge never retired from was baking. As a professional cake decorator, Mrs. Muldoon created cakes for any affair. From baptisms to birthdays, graduations to weddings, Mrs. Muldoon’s skills in the kitchen always gave the honored guests one more reason to smile. She also shared her knowledge, instructing both novices and decorated chefs, in the art of topping off any occasion.
However, celebrating with family was Marge’s true passion. Married to Jack for 62 years, together they had 10 children, 35 grandchildren, and 37 great grandchildren (with two more on the way). Family was the number one priority in her life. No matter what the occasion, no matter how many or few, if family was present, it was an event.
Marge’s unconditional love of family and friends leaves an unfillable void to those she leaves behind. They include her children: Kevin Muldoon and wife Patricia; Robert Muldoon and wife Linda; Maryanne Muldoon; Catherine Pugsley and husband Stephen; Son-in-law James McPhee; Stephen Muldoon and wife Donna; Paul Muldoon and wife Ann; Jane Burt and husband Christopher; Julie Quill and husband John; and John P. Muldoon III and wife Loraine. She was predeceased by her daughter Jean McPhee (Muldoon).
Marge also leaves behind her beloved siblings: Sr. Ann Marie McAndrews, SND; Sr. Jane McAndrews, SND; and Jean McAndrews. She is predeceased by her brother William McAndrews and sister Joan Grant (McAndrews).
Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend a Mass of Christian Burial to be celebrated in St. Paul’s Church, 147 North St., Hingham, MA, on Monday, September 23, at 10AM. Visiting hours will be held at McDonald Keohane Funeral Home, 40 Sea St., North Weymouth, MA, on Sunday, September 22, from 3-7PM. Burial will be at St. Paul’s Cemetery.
