Wallace Ferguson Sr. “Wally” age 69 of Villas, NJ on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 at the Cape May Health Care Center after a brief illness.

He was born in Montville and spent his formative years in Montville later moving to Wayne where he lived for forty years before moving to Cape May four years ago.

Wally was a Heavy Equipment operator for George Ferguson Construction Company in Little Falls and later for A.J. Pignetollo Paving Company in Wayne. He was a hard worker and exuded a conscientious nature that never missed a day of work. Wally would often be seen driving his pickup truck with his dog Damion a lovable Rottweiler at his side. Damion was an out of character pussy cat of a Rottweiler who was the nicest dumbest dog ever.

Wally did not cook for himself and you would find him seven days a week at Gabriel’s Hotel Restaurant that can be described as his second home and social setting.

Wally was a very kind and good man who can be described as a very social being. He especially enjoyed volunteering his services as a Wayne Volunteer Fireman with the Wayne P.O.L. Fire Company No.2 in Wayne. He served the fire company and the people of Wayne for over forty years.

Surviving are one daughter Charlene D’Urso and her husband Frank of Boonton; one son Wallace Ferguson Jr. of Montville; one sister Jeanette Ferguson of Parsippany; he was grandpa Wally to three grandchildren Nicole Reid and her husband Daniel, David D’Urso and Benjamin D’Urso and his wife Grace; one great granddaughter Sienna D’Urso, a niece Ann Ferguson Serrecchia and several great nieces and nephews.

Those planning an expression of sympathy in Wally’s memory are asked to consider The Wayne P.O.L. Fire Company #2, P.O. Box 1, Wayne, NJ 07470.
