George B. Ferris, Jr., 51, died suddenly on October 26, 2019. Born and raised in Greenwich, Connecticut, George graduated from Greenwich High School and went on to earn his Bachelor's Degree in Vocational Education at NYIT.

George was a classic car fanatic and loved restoring classic Mustangs in particular. He was also a huge Star Wars fan and collector and an eternal animal lover.
George is survived by his wife, Kristen, his son, Zacharia, his mother, Marilyn Bivona and her husband Chuck, his father, George, Sr., a brother, Andrew and his wife Demetria and his sister, Sherri Brown and her husband Matt, as well as several nieces and nephews.

To the Ferris family
I am so very sorry for your loss of George.
I remember George was about the same age as my son Jeffrey.
Please hold his memory in your hearts.
From one Ferris to another
My son Jeff joined me in Winston-Salem after I lost my husband five years ago. I miss Greenwich
but it got to be too costly with property taxes
