From the Westford Wardsman, 8 Jan. 1916
The community mourns the loss this week of one of its long-time residents. Mary E. Heywood died at her home on Monday evening after an illness of several weeks, aged 69 yrs. 9 mos. 7 days. Mrs. Heywood was the widow of the late George W. Heywood and for many years lived in the Westford depot neighborhood, where Mr. Heywood was in the grain business with W. H. H. Burbeck. After his retirement from business Mr. and Mrs. Heywood lived at their pleasant home at the Center [7 Main Street] until after the former's death two years ago, and more recently Mrs. Heywood had bought and established for herself the cosey home near the soldier's monument.
Mrs. Heywood (Mary Cushing) was born in Roxbury, but at the time of her marriage to Mr. Heywood was the widow of Capt. Mellen, her home being in Medford. Mrs. Heywood was a member of the Unitarian church and of the Tadmuck club. She was a devoted wife and mother and a good friend and neighbor. She gave her late husband the most devoted care during a long period of invalidism.
Mrs. Heywood is survived by an only son, Albert Whittemore Heywood, and an only daughter, Mrs. Charles L. Hildreth; also, three grandchildren.
