Obituary: Carol Ann Bergen

Carol Ann Bergen, at 65 

Carol Ann (Blanchard) Bergen of Taunton passed away after a brief battle with metastatic cancer on September 14, 2024 at the age of 65. A cherished mother, grandmother, sister, cousin, and friend, Ms. Bergen's warmth and vibrant spirit left a mark on all who knew her. 

Ms. Bergen was born in the North End of Boston. At a young age she moved to Hull, where she lived for most of her life, raising her children in her same childhood home on K Street. She loved being with family and especially cherished her time spent with her grandchildren, who affectionately named her “Nana Bee.” Nana Bee was always up for a trip to Nantasket Beach, a swim in the pool, or to play a game of catch.

Ms. Bergen is survived by her children, Amanda Rosen and Mitchell Bergen; her grandchildren, Thomas and Madilynn Rosen; and two brothers, Franklin Blanchard and his wife, Judy, and William Blanchard and his wife, Carol. She was predeceased by her parents, William and Elena Blanchard.

A funeral Mass will be held in her honor on September 26 at 10:30 a.m. at St. Mary of the Assumption Parish, 208 Samoset Ave., Hull.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in memory of Carol to Old Colony Hospice, 321 Manley St, West Bridgewater, MA 02379; www.OldColonyHospice.org.
