    Dorothy E. (Chase) Hefner

    February 16, 1926 - July 9, 2020

    Dorothy E. (Chase) Hefner, 94, longtime resident of Methuen, passed away peacefully on July 9, 2020 at home surrounded by her devoted family. Born on February 16, 1926 to the late Frank and Margaret (Harrington) Chase, she graduated from Lowell High School with the Class of 1944. She enjoyed travelling; especially to Las Vegas, Europe and Baja Mexico, with family. As the beloved matriarch of her family, Dorothy enjoyed the many pleasures in life, but her greatest joy was simply spending time with her family and extended family, especially during the holidays. She touched many lives in many different circles and will fondly be loved, cherished, and missed by all. Dorothy is survived by her three loving children; her daughter Kathleen Partridge of Methuen, her son Robert Hefner of La Paz, Baja Mexico, and her son Richard Hefner and his wife Cynthia of Lawrence. She was the proud grandmother to Shaun, Keith, Eric, Heather and Jason and great-grandmother to her eight great-grandchildren. Dorothy is also survived by many nieces, nephews and her brother-in-law Robert Flynn. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband Philip Hefner, with whom she celebrated 50 years of marriage until his passing and her siblings; Frances Gomez, Mary West, Marjorie Flynn, John Chase, Harvey Chase and Gerald Chase. Visitation for Dorothy will be held on Monday, July 13, 2020 from 4 – 8 PM at the Kenneth H. Pollard Funeral Home, 233 Lawrence Street, Methuen. Friends and family are cordially invited to attend. **Due to COVID-19 guidelines, face-masks will be required to enter the funeral home and social distancing must be followed. If you have an underlying condition of concern, please do not attend. To honor Dorothy’s wishes all other services will be privately held. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Dorothy’s memory to the Beacon Hospice, 290 Merrimack Street, Suite #242, Lawrence, MA 01843. The Kenneth H. Pollard Funeral Home is proud to serve the Hefner family.
