Obituary for Maria Grace McNaught

Maria Grace McNaught, 72, of Merrimack, NH passed from this life peacefully Friday April 16, 2021 at the Community Hospice House in Merrimack.
Born September 3, 1948 in Roxbury, Mass she was the daughter of the late Fiore and Madeline (Siano) Accomando and wife of Robert McNaught, of Merrimack with whom she married on June 10, 1984 at the St. Columbkille Church in Brighton, MA.
Maria attended classes at Harvard University and Northeastern University, and was an author with published works in the Smithsonian Library.
In her early years, Maria worked at Delta Dental and Blue Cross & Blue Shield processing dental and medical records.
She had a huge heart, and was always finding things she could do that would help others.

Maria was proud to be a longstanding member of New Fellowship Baptist Church in Nashua for about thirty years, where she enjoyed singing in the church’s choir. Maria also enjoyed politics, writing, social activism, storytelling and traveling. In her 20s, Maria ventured to London, Wales, Ireland, Morocco, Spain, Italy, Rome and Montreal.
Besides her loving husband Robert, of almost 37 years, Maria leaves behind one handsome son, Joshua McNaught; one beautiful daughter, Bethany McNaught; one adorable grandson, Kahlil Coe; two brothers, E.
