Jean F. McNally

Jean F. McNally, 92, of Milford, NJ, passed away on Saturday, October 30, 2021 at the Country Arch Care Center in Pittstown, NJ. Born December 8, 1928 in Milford, NJ, Jean lived in Milford most of her life until moving to Frenchtown, NJ where she and her beloved husband, Jack raised their seven children. Jean moved back to Milford in 1980, where she resided for the remainder of her life. She was a 1946 graduate of Frenchtown High School and Abington Memorial Hospital School of Nursing in 1949. She worked as an RN at Abington, Easton and Warren Hospitals. Jean also worked alongside her husband, Jack, owner of Mac Supply in Milford, NJ, as a bookkeeper and clerk for many years before retiring in 1991. Jean was well known in the town of Milford for her smiling face and kind greeting to everyone she came in contact with. Nothing gave her more joy than being with her family, taking pictures at every event and reminiscing about all the wonderful memories they shared. She was also an avid Phillies fan for many years. She was active of the Frenchtown School PTO when her children attended school there, The Riegel Ridgers, and a current member of the Abington Hospital Alumni Association. Jean was a beloved member of the St. Edward R.C. Church as well.

Daughter of the late Frank E. and Mildred (Amberman) Fleck, Jean is survived by her beloved husband of nearly 71 years, John “Jack” McNally, her six sons Thomas McNally of Mt.

A mother’s love is alive forever. In the lessons she taught, the patience she gave, the comfort she created, the love she shared, and in the hearts of the children she raised. My prayers go out to all of you in this time of great sadness. To my friend Paul in your time of loss. The love of a mother can never be replaced. Her caring nature and her warm spirit will live on in you always.

Dear McNally Family (certainly a large one), Linda and I are saddened to hear of "Mrs Mac's" passing. Every time we entered Mac Supply she sincerely inquired how we were doing. She was interested in the goin ons in our lives and took the time to ask. In my pre parent/pre married days I always admired her ability to "manage" the large McNally family. Not a simple task. Many fond memories of Mrs Mac as the Mom of our best friends. We trust she remains in good hands and wish comfort to the McNally family. God speed, David and Linda

Love and miss you all! Verna (Phillips) Johnson
