Reginald “Reg” E. Farrington

STAFFORD SPRINGS, Conn. – Reginald “Reg” E. Farrington, 80, of Stafford Springs, Conn., passed away on Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022 after a short but brave fight with cancer. He was born in Andover, son of the late John E. and Lila B. (Murphy) Farrington.

He is survived by his loving wife of 60 years, Brenda (Spiller) Farrington; daughter, Terri Owens; five grandchildren; nine great- grandchildren; sisters LaVerna White, Geraldine Parise, June Trenoweth and her husband Danny, Carole Nelson, and Bonnie VaShaw and her husband, Keith; and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his son, Reginald “Eagle” E. Farrington, Jr.; brother, Frank Farrington, and sisters Gloria Farrington and Linda Theriault.

Reg found joy in helping his family, friends, and strangers alike. From helping his neighbors clean out their garage to helping his grandson re-shingle a roof, there wasn’t anything Reg wouldn’t at least show up to and be grounds crew or support. His passions were a good deal on a lawnmower and mowing lawns. He enjoyed yearly trips to Maine with his wife and never missed an Andover Olde Home Days Celebration.

Calling hours will be held on Sunday, Oct. 16 from 12 to 2 p.m., with a memorial service to take place at 2 p.m. at Introvigne Funeral Home, Inc., 51 East Main St., Stafford Springs, Conn.. Burial will take place privately in Stafford Springs Cemetery, Stafford Springs, Conn. at a later date.
