FERGUS, ESTHER ISABELLE - After a long and fulfilling life, the death of Esther Fergus, wife of the late Andrew Fergus occurred at the Kennebec Manor on Saturday, July 20, 2013. She was born on May 13, 1913 in Saint John to the late Frank and Augusta (McNeil) Moore. Esther was a spirited person, starting out very young and getting involved with the business world. She was a huge help to her parents, aiding with nurturing her younger siblings; whenever help was needed she could be counted on. Her goal in the last few years was to reach 100 years of age which she did proudly this May. Esther has left many fond memories, for those fortunate enough to have known her. She is survived by the last of her 16 siblings, Christine Hartford of Saint John; grandson, Robert Fergus of Saint John; great-grandchildren: Robert Fergus and Judy Nickerson; numerous great-great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews. Esther was predeceased by her husband; parents; 15 siblings; son, Hugh Robert Fergus; and step-son, Andrew Fergus. The family would like to thank the doctors and staff of St. Joseph's Hospital and Kennebec Manor for their kindness and support during Esther's stay with them.
