Lois Marion (Cobbett) Buckley, 92, of Rochester, passed away peacefully with her family by her side on the very windy evening of Jan. 16. She was staying at the Sippican Healthcare Center in Marion, recovering from a recent illness. Lois was the widow of the late Edward F. Buckley, Sr. and the daughter of the late Florence (Chase) Cobbett and Philip Wesley Cobbett.

Born in Whitman, Jan. 19, 1927 Lois lived in Brockton and Wareham for many years before moving to Rochester in 2010.

She is survived by her son, Edward F. Buckley, Jr., his wife Shelley R. Myers Buckley of Rochester, granddaughter Elsie A. Buckley, and many nieces and nephews from the Buckley, Collins, and Perkins families, whom she cherished dearly. She was the sister of the late Barbara (Cobbett) MaDan and Ruth (Cobbett) Collins. She was very close to her sisters and all her family.

Lois loved spending good times together on Cape Cod at the cottage her father built in the late 1940’s called the “Sea Chest” on Beach Plum Lane in Eastham. Throughout her life she had an affection for the sun, beaches, pets and the mountains of New Hampshire. Family values and traditions were the staples of her life.
