In Memory of Patsy Husson

It is with a heavy heart that we want to inform you a beloved HHS

member, Patsy Husson, has passed away on January 12, 2026. She was

an active member of the society contributing in various ways

throughout the years. She was an HHS board member, the “First Lady”

when her husband, Jim, was HHS President, a great root beer float

maker and worker during yard sales, an eager and valued bazaar

contributor, our “lunch lady” with her Back-Porch Stew for workers

during events, the editor and guru of our Facebook page, along with

being our photographer and scrapbook maker for Heritage Days,

monthly meetings and special events. She also loved to contribute by

making and selling her crafts and cards for the benefit of the society.

But many of you would best remember her if you came to our

Christmas bazaar and saw her there as she was Mrs. Claus! She will be

missed by not only the members of the Hampden Historical Society but

those who knew her both in Hampden and beyond. Godspeed, Patsy.
