Lowney, Roslyn

Roslyn “Roz” (Paulo) Lowney of Canton, 71, passed away unexpectedly on February 5, 2025. Roz was born in Fall River on March 31, 1953, to the late Charles and Marion (Franco) Paulo. She was the oldest of four sisters and a graduate of the Class of 1971 from B.M.C Durfee High School and Diman Regional School of Practical Nursing where she earned her LPN degree.

Roz is survived by her high school sweetheart and loving husband of 50 years, Dr. Timothy Lowney, Sr.; her four children, Dr. Rachael Marcantonio and her husband, Andrew, Jessica Sergi, Esq., and her husband, Michael, Dr. Timothy Lowney Jr. and his wife, Rebecca (Carbeau), and Katherine Lowney, COO, Family Medical Associates, and her partner, David Monahan. Grandma is also survived by her nine beloved grandchildren, Jack and Sean Marcantonio; Hope, Eve and Faye Sergi; and Elizabeth, William, Catherine and Christopher Lowney.

She also leaves behind her cherished sisters, Karen and the late Armand Ouellette, Sandra and Glen Aballo, and Christine and Andrew Reilly, as well as many beloved brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews, cousins and friends.

Roz was the matriarch of her family, which she lovingly raised in Canton. Alongside her husband, Roz helped manage the business of Family Medical Associates, which has served Canton and the surrounding communities for over 45 years. Roz summered over 35 years in Megansett with her children and grandchildren, admiring sunsets with Tim, and spending many happy times with her friends and family on the deck of MYC. Roz and Tim moved to Beacon Hill for 15 years, a dream they fulfilled after their children were grown; they explored the city’s restaurants and shops (another of Roz’s passions). A longtime member of Pocasset Golf Club, Roz enjoyed playing golf with her husband and friends; more recently, she loved watching her grandchildren learn to play. Roz and Tim enjoyed winters at the Delray Beach Club with good friends playing canasta and relaxing at the beach.

Roz absolutely adored her nine grandchildren, and as her family expanded, she and Tim moved back to Canton so they could host large family holidays and milestones, as well as many gatherings with their extended family and friends. Roz was extremely generous, always making plans to bring friends and family together. She was adventurous in spirit and a world traveler. She and Tim enjoyed exploring the world together, traveling throughout Europe and the Caribbean, her favorite destination being Paris.

Roz was a person of deep faith who always put her trust in God. Her most cherished moments in life were spent with her family. We wish we had more time with her but treasure the time we had.

A funeral Mass will be celebrated on Saturday, February 15, at 12 p.m. in St. Oscar Romero Church in Canton. Family and friends are invited to calling hours at the church on Saturday prior to the Mass from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the Boston Home in her memory at thebostonhome.org.
