Rita H. Legere, 87 1933 - 2021 LYNN, MA - Rita H. Legere, age 87 and lifelong resident of Lynn, died peacefully at her home on Thursday, April 15, 2021. Born in Lynn in 1933, she was the daughter of the late Amedee “Peter” and Anna (Robichaud) Legere. She was raised and educated in Lynn, attended St. Jean de Baptiste School and graduated in 1951.

She also volunteered in the gift shop at North Shore Med- ical Center, Salem Hospital for many years.
