Pearson, Jeffrey Erwin

Jeffrey Pearson, 56, passed away on June 7, 2022, after a 3-year battle with IPF disease. He was born February 9, 1966 in Hartford, to Mary (Noonan) Zawisza and Kinsman Pearson. Growing up, he lived in both Connecticut and Florida. However, his most fond memories were made while living in the towns of Wethersfield and Newington. He eventually settled in Newington, where he also worked for the town in the public school system. Jeffrey proudly served in the United States Army as an armored crew man in both the United States and overseas in Germany. Jeffrey loved muscle cars and music. He was an avid drum player, and enjoyed jamming out with his friends and band mates. While he would jokingly

refer to himself as a “crazy Irishman,” he was truly a kind, gentle soul that will be greatly missed by all who were fortunate enough to meet him. Jeffrey leaves behind his wife Helene and they're loving cat Mickey, along with many close friends and extended family. Jeffrey and his family would like to extend their greatest thanks to the pulmonary rehab department at the Hospital for Special Care in New Britain, the Rotech company in Middletown, and Dr. Watson's office in New Britain for all their dedication and hard work. All of whom gave him hope during the final stage of his life. Funeral services for Jeffrey will be held on Wednesday, June 10th 2022, at 10:00 a.m. at the Duksa Family Funeral Homes at Newington Memorial, 20 Bonair Ave., Newington. He will be lovingly laid to rest following his service at the Center Cemetery, Newington. Family and friends may call at Newington Memorial prior to his service on Wednesday, from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.
