Helen B. Ferguson

Great Mom, Grandma

and Friend

Helen B. (McGinley) Ferguson, 83, of Bethel, died February 17. She was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., to Joseph P. and Helen (Moore) McGinley on January 22, 1926.

Three children, including George Ferguson and his wife, Kathleen, of Newtown; three grandchildren; a sister; and a sister-in-law, survive her.

Mrs Ferguson selflessly dedicated her life to her children and grandchildren, and she loved life and being with people. She was dedicated to enjoying her “little glass of wine” every evening.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be conducted at St Mary’s Roman Catholic Church, Bethel, Saturday, February 21, at 10 am. A celebration of Mrs Ferguson’s life will be held at the home of George and Kathleen, 49 Taunton Hill Road, Newtown, following the Mass.

Memorial contributions in lieu of flowers may be made to Cascades Program of Bethel Health Care, 13 Parklawn Drive, Bethel CT 06801.

Arrangements are in care of the Honan Funeral Home, 58 Main Street, Newtown.
