Notes |
- Denise (Szafran) Bergey, 61, of Lewiston, NY, passed away on Monday, January 25, 2021 after a courageous battle with cancer. Denise was the daughter of Ruth and Donald Hartman, and a lifelong resident of Niagara Falls until moving to Lewiston upon her marriage to Michael Bergey.
Denise was a dedicated wife, mother and grandmother, forever unselfishly putting her family and others' needs above her own.
She especially enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, sailing, searching for treasures at garage sales, gardening and creating unique crafts. As great cook, she enjoyed preparing "buffet feasts," always extending a welcoming invitation to family and friends. She will be lovingly remembered for her generosity and kind, compassionate manner, sharing her spirit of warmth and light to others.
Denise is survived by her husband, Michael Bergey; children, Deana (Frank) Falcone and Daniel Szafran; grandchildren, Jacy, Frankie, Sterling, Valentina, Leo; mother, Ruth Hartman; siblings, Dona, Daniel, Donald and Deborah (Paul) Smith; six step-children; as well as several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her father, Donald; and former companion, Nicholas Ciamarro.
There will be no prior visitation. A memorial service will be announced at a future date.
