Nancy Bozyczko

Nancy Ann Bozyczko, 72, a beloved member of the Hopkinton community, passed away June 24. Born and raised in Framingham, she was the daughter of the late Shirley (Dyan) and Lloyd McLean. She was the beloved wife of 52 years to Frank Bozyczko of Hopkinton.

Nancy’s essence radiated love and loyalty without bounds, yet it was her profound devotion to her family that truly shaped her character. Throughout her life, hosting and cooking became Nancy’s defining specialties. While many view cooking as a mundane chore, Nancy transformed it into a beautiful expression of her love and admiration for those in her life. For her, it was never a mere duty, but always a joyful privilege. Meeting Nancy meant encountering someone who embraced others with open arms and a genuine heart. Her inner light illuminated every interaction, leaving a lasting impression on those fortunate enough to know her.

In addition to her husband, Nancy is survived by her children, Chris Bozyczko of Hopkinton and Heather Marques and husband Amilcar of Milford. She also leaves behind brother Bill McLean and wife Sharon of Hopkinton, two grandchildren, Serafina and Tristan Marques, and several nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by brother David McLean.

Visitation will be held on Sunday, July 7, from 3-6 p.m. at the Chesmore Funeral Home of Hopkinton, 57 Hayden Rowe Street. A funeral service will take place on Monday, July 8, at 10 a.m. at the funeral home. Interment will follow in Edgell Grove Cemetery in Framingham.
