Nancy M. Riley

DANVERS – Nancy M. Riley, 90, passed away on May 18, 2026 at her home in Danvers. Born in Chelsea, she was the daughter of the late William and Irene (Perrier) Riley. She was raised in East Boston, MA and was a long-time resident of Salem, MA.

She was a gifted painter, who found joy in capturing the beauty of the world through her art, and a devoted dancer, rarely missing a chance to step on the dance floor. Her creativity touched many, and her works were a testament to her expressive spirit. With grace and joy, she carried her love of the world and movement throughout her life, reminding everyone that celebration can be found in even the simplest moments.

An avid traveler, she took every opportunity to explore new places, cultures, and experiences. Her journeys brought her great happiness and stories to share with those around her. Whether near or far, she found wonder in the world and inspired others to do the same.

In addition to her parents, Nancy is predeceased by her son, Dennis Michael Hudson, and her first husband, Donald H. Hudson.

Nancy is survived by longtime partner, Raymond Page, her daughter, Kathleen (Hudson) Bartolini and her husband Wilmin Bartolini of Newfields, NH, her two brothers, William Riley and Paul Riley, and her two beloved grandchildren, Emily Kay and Joseph Patrick Bartolini, who will carry forward her legacy of creativity, adventure and joy.

Her warmth, talent, and spirited nature will be deeply missed but forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.
