Lynn Marie (Seaholm) Dougherty, 55, of Franklin, formerly of Medway, died February 4th at home in the arms of her loved ones after a fiercely courageous battle with cancer.
Born in Framingham on June 3rd, 1963, and raised in Franklin, Lynn was the daughter of Ray Seaholm and the late Gail (Rogers) Seaholm. She married Brian Dougherty, also of Franklin, in 1989. She raised her children in Medway for many years before returning to Franklin just two years ago. A graduate of Franklin High School and Northeastern University, Lynn later went on to work for several years as a Vice President at USI Insurance.
She enjoyed the great outdoors - exercising, biking, and spending time on the beaches of Cape Cod. But more than anything, Lynn enjoyed being in the company of her children, family, and friends.
Lynn is survived by her husband Brian Dougherty and three beloved children: Jenna Dickson and her husband William of Wellesley, Olivia Dougherty of Brookline and Jack Dougherty of Franklin. She is also survived by her loving father and three sisters, Raeann Fizer of Blackstone, Diane Fannon of Eastham and Kathleen Goldberg of Bellingham. Lynn will also leave behind countless relatives, friends, and coworkers who will remember her incredible spirit and strength.
