Obituary

Phyllis Ann (Pickard) Lussier, 79 of Hudson passed away peacefully on Thursday, June 1, 2017 at Emerson Hospital, surrounded by her adoring family. She leaves behind her beloved husband of over fifty-eight years, Raymond “Ray” T. Lussier.

Ann was born in Fort Fairfield, ME, on January 25, 1938, during a blizzard, a daughter of two stranded Canadians visiting from New Brunswick, Canada; the late John and Helena (McLaughlin) Pickard. Ann was raised in Grand Falls, New Brunswick, Canada, where she graduated from high school and later earned her degree at the New Brunswick Teachers College; shortly thereafter she met a handsome, young Airman, named Raymond Lussier, who was stationed at Loring Air Force Base. They married on July 26, 1958 and later settled in Hudson, MA in 1965 where she resided until she passed.

Ann was an avid card player and she especially enjoyed playing bridge. She loved to travel and experience new places; visiting Africa several times on Safari. Those that knew her remember her most for her great sense of humor and her caring nature. She volunteered and served as the Treasurer for Friends of the Hudson Senior Center. Ann will be missed dearly by all who knew her.
