Obituary: Frederick A. Beebe

Frederick A. Beebe, at 63

Frederick A. Beebe, of Hull and Charlestown, departed this life on April 17, at age 63.

Mr. Beebe brought a smile to everyone he met. He was gentle and strong, a natural provider and a selfless man. Affectionately called Ricky by his family and friends, he adored his wife Paulette and daughter Tarrah, who was the twinkle in his eye. He made sure to let everyone know how much he cared about them, and was a vessel through which God spread joy and compassion. 

Mr. Beebe was a CPA with a bachelor's degree from Bentley College and an MBA from Boston University. He served multiple roles at the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, most recently as director of audit at the School Building Authority and also as deputy commissioner of the Department of Revenue's Audit Division. He was a mentor to so many in his profession and in life.

In his spare time, you could find him up in New Hampshire, taking a sunset cruise on his pontoon boat, “Livin' Lahhge.” To Mr. Beebe, “living large” was cherishing the little things: sending phone hugs, playing Santa Claus, taking care of his loved ones. He was the life of the party, even if that meant doing the cooking and cleaning behind the scenes. 

Mr. Beebe will be greatly missed by all who knew him, but his memory will bring a smile to the faces of all whose lives he touched.

Mary M. Lindholm, at 93

Mary M. [Governor] Lindholm, of Hull, died July 16 at her home.  She was 93.

Along with her late husband, Robert, Mary called the Boston area home for all her years.  They raised their four children on the South Shore and eventually returned for good to the beach town of Mary's childhood summers. Mrs. Lindholm was born Mar. 9, 1923 in Boston, the oldest of five children to William and Florence [MacQuarrie] Governor.  She was a young girl when the family started summering in Hull.

At Roxbury Memorial High School, she excelled in her coursework, especially French class.  After graduating in 1941, Mary worked for the New England Telephone Co.  It was during this time that things became more serious with “the boy with the platinum blonde hair” she had fallen for back in the third grade.

She wed her soldier during a blizzard on February 8, 1945.  The couple settled into the South Shore with their children, Robert Jr., David, Deborah, and Beverly.  Mrs. Lindholm loved using decor to transform the multiple houses they lived in through the years into homes her family and friends could enjoy.

Over the years, Mrs. Lindholm commuted into Boston where she worked as a Receptionist.  She could often be found shopping the racks of Filene's Basement during her lunch hours.

In retirement, the couple spent their winters in Florida residing in Nalcrest, the letter carriers' retirement community.  After many years of work, Mrs. Lindholm enjoyed days by the pool, bicycling, playing Bingo and continuing to try new recipes.  She also volunteered her time helping the students of the Jacobs School and serving meals at the Anne M.
