Frank P. Ferguson, Jr. of Lansdale, late of The Villages, Florida, passed away peacefully Monday, August 10, 2020, in his home at the age of 83. Born in Wyncote, he was the son of the late Frank and Marion (née Brannan) Ferguson.

Frank attended Immaculate Conception School in Jenkintown and Northeast Catholic High School in Philadelphia. He was employed by Simco for many years then went on to build two companies, J.F. Kafer and Kerstat, Inc.

He loved to play golf and was considered a scratch golfer. Frank loved sports, especially baseball and hockey, both of which he played in his youth. He was a devoted Phillies and Flyers fan—never missing a game.

In addition to his wife, Dorothy R. Ferguson (née Regeis), Frank is survived by his daughters Barbara, Karen (Denis), and Keri (Jim); and his sons Thomas (Roseann) and Terrence; as well as eleven grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren.

    I worked with Frank at Kafer for 3 years and enjoyed many rounds of golf with Frank. One fond memory was while golfing Frank’s ball came to rest in a pine tree about 4 feet off the ground. He took a mighty baseball like swing at the ball which then flew over his shoulder just missing his head. Thankfully it missed and we all had a good laugh about it. Condolences to the family

  2. Frank trained me when I got started with Simco as a rep. I’m from South Carolina and I remember him taking me to breakfast in Pa. and ordering me scrapple!! I thought it was DELICIOUS!! He finally let me read the ingredients several days later-wow!!

    So when I got back to South Carolina I sent him a 2lb. bag of grits!! It was a great joke between us-I will miss him
