Irene Durand-Bryan was a licensed psychologist with offices in Concord and Lowell, according to her obituary.

Police said a Ford van struck her around 11:45 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 23, at her Concord Road home near Alcott Street. The 60-year-old driver initially sped away, but he returned to the scene and spoke with police later, authorities said. Officials have not released the driver's name.

Paramedics took Durand-Bryan to Emerson Hospital, where doctors pronounced her dead.

Police are still investigating the incident, the Middlesex District Attorney's Office said.

Durand-Bryan is survived by her husband, Joe, of 37 years, and her two daughters, her obituary said. The family will hold a funeral for her on Saturday.
