Arthur L. Gendron Jr., M.D.  

Dr. Arthur L. Gendron Jr., “Art”, aged 69, of Hopkinton, MA, passed away February 5, 2022 surrounded by his loving family. He leaves behind his wife of 36 years, Linda J. Clancy as well as his three children, Grant, Danielle and Andrea and her husband, Max Robidoux. Art was pre-deceased by his father Arthur, mother Rita, and his brother Richard.   

Art was born in Windsor Locks, Connecticut and was a graduate of Boston University’s prestigious six-year combined-degree college and medical school program. Art lived his life caring for his family and others. He treated thousands of patients over his 40+ years as a family practice physician (including decades of practice at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, Manchester, NH).  

A quietly determined man of piercing intelligence, Art achieved his life’s goal of providing a wonderful family life for his wife and children. He loved games, walks, books, and bicycling. He enjoyed spending hours walking the beaches of Cape Cod and taking boat rides in Boston Harbor. Attending Red Sox games and watching the Patriots and Boston College football were treasured activities. He also loved living in Hopkinton and visiting Chatham. He will be missed everyday by his family.  

Visitation will be held from 5-8pm on Friday, February 18 at the Chesmore Funeral Home, 57 Hayden Rowe St., Hopkinton, MA. A funeral Mass will be held on Saturday, February 19 at 11am at St. John the Evangelist Church, 20 Church St., Hopkinton, MA. Masks are required at both events.
