Obituary for Gladys (Novicki) Herrick

Gladys (Novicki)  Herrick
Gladys (Novicki) Herrick, 92, died peacefully Saturday August 25, 2018 at the LifeCare Center of Acton, MA. She was the wife of the late Ralph W. Herrick, Jr., to whom she was married for 51 years at the time of his passing in 1998.

Born at home in Maynard, MA she was the daughter of the late John and Rose (Leuka) Novicki and was predeceased by her sisters, Josephine Torppa, Stella Zaleska and Helen Baccaro. She is survived by four children, Linda Sperandio, Pamela J. Pino and husband Kenneth J., David Herrick and wife Laurie, and Marlene Thomas and husband Joseph; 5 grandchildren, Melanie Wetherbee, Robyn and Colin Sperandio, and Brittany and Brandon Herrick; and nieces, nephews, in-laws and their families. She was the mother-in-law of the late James Sperandio who died this past May.

Mrs. Herrick grew up in Maynard and following her marriage moved to Acton for a time. The Herricks then built their home in Maynard where they lived for over 50 years. Together they enjoyed traveling, especially time spent on Cape Cod and in Florida. Mrs. Herrick enjoyed the beach and drawing. She especially loved children and the many pets her family cared for through the years. She will be deeply missed by all.

In accordance with her wishes, services and burial in St. Bridget's Cemetery, Maynard, were private. Memorial page actonfuneralhome.com
