Frank H. Ferguson Jr., 82, of Kennett Township, died Friday, June 6, at Brandywine Living at Longwood in Kennett Square. Born in Wilmington, he was the son of the late Frank Ferguson and the late Velma Milligan Ferguson.
Frank lived in the Balmoral neighborhood for 30 years and was a lifelong employee of the DuPont Company, retiring in 2001. Following his retirement, he continued to volunteer his time with the Wilmington & Western Railroad in Wilmington. He was passionate about trains and loved spending time on them.
In addition, Frank was a car enthusiast, especially when it came to Corvettes, Camaros, and Chevelles. He was known to get a new car every 2 years because he would get bored with the one he was driving. He also collected model cars and was an avid NASCAR fan.
Frank was known for his love of Guinness beer and craft breweries and took a trip to Colorado every year.
He will be missed for his smile and sense of humor.
Frank is survived by his close friends, Amanda Carey, Constance Penn “CP” Wilson, Diane Wright, and a number of other good friends from both Two Stones Pub in Kennet Square and Dew Point Brewery in Yorklyn.
A celebration of Frank’s life will be announced at a future date.
Arrangements are by Grieco Funeral Home & Crematory, Inc. (484-734-8100) of Kennett Square. To view Frank’s online obituary and share a memory of him, please visit www.griecofunerals.com.
