Maureen was born January 12, 1939 to the late Thomas and Olga Tracy (Flugrath). She was the youngest of three children. Maureen graduated from Crosby High School and was married shortly after to Joseph Dunphy for more than 40 years. She also graduated from Post University before starting her career at Chase School and then spending many years working as the Director of Safety Services for The Red Cross. Nothing made Maureen happier than styling her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The only thing she loved more than a day out shopping at her favorite stores, were summers on Cape Cod and spending time with her family.
Maureen was preceded in death by daughters Laurie Ravenscroft, Donna Stafstrom, and Janice Mackiewicz as well as her grandson Patrick Stafstrom. In addition, she was predeceased by her loving canines Spirit and Kobe.
