Jason Riley Obituary

RILEY, Jason T. of Woburn, formerly of Dorchester, died peacefully at home on November 8, 2023 after a long battle with Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD). Beloved son of Edward J. and Kathleen E. (Sullivan) Riley of Woburn. Loving brother of the late Matthew E. Riley. Survived by many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Family and friends will honor and remember Jason's life by gathering for a visiting hour in St. Barbara Church, 138 Cambridge Road, Woburn, on Thursday morning, November 16, 2023 at 9:00 A.M. Followed by a Funeral Mass at 10:00 A.M. Jason was a graduate of Arlington Catholic High School, Class of 1998 and Merrimack College, Class of 2003. He was an avid Boston Red Sox and Celtics fan. At Jason's last visit with his doctor, he said softly to the doctor, "It's probably too late to help me, but will you help the boys being born?" In lieu of flowers, and in Jason's spirit, please make a donation in his memory to ALD Connect at www.aldconnect.org. For guestbook, please visit www.jmurphyfh.com. Arrangements by the Murphy Funeral Home, DORCHESTER.

I never met Jason but me and his mother were work buddies for many years. Me and Jason had one thing in common: Stephen King. We love his books.

I'm saddened to hear this news. My condolences go out to Kathy, Eddie and the rest of their families. May Jason Rest In Peace.
