By Canton Citizen

Louise Catherine Bernard, 89, a resident of Canton for over 50 years, died peacefully on April 11, 2025, among family at South Shore Hospital.

Louise grew up in Brighton, where she attended school and church at Saint Columbkille Catholic Church. She will be remembered fondly for the enormity of her kindness and her devotion to family. Louise was a prolific storyteller, often sharing with people the happiest times in her youth spent with family in Bermuda, Cape Cod, Boston and Canton.

She survived two of her children, Scott Bernard, formerly of Medfield, and Andrew Loverich Bernard, formerly of Pittsburgh, PA. She leaves behind three remaining sons, Lawrence Bernard of Canton, Eric Bernard of Newton, and Gregory Bernard of Nantucket, as well as several grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

Louise was one of four children and is survived by her brother Tom Larkin and sister Donna Maguire, both of Brighton. She was predeceased by her sister, Barbra Cardillo, of Woburn.

A funeral Mass will be held in Saint Columbkille Church on May 20, at 10:30 a.m., with interment at Evergreen Cemetery, followed by a celebration of Louise’s life at The Stockyard. All are located in Brighton. Friends and family are welcome.

In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Louise may be made to The Home for Little Wanderers, 72-74 E. Dedham St., Boston, MA 02118.
