In loving memory of Helen Kirker, 1930-2025
Helen Kirker, first president of the 1816 Farmington Quaker Meetinghouse Museum, died on May 17, 2025, after a full life, well-lived as postmistress of Seneca Castle, historian, pilot, Clerk of Farmington Friends, vestry member at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, Zonta member, and beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and aunt.
From the very beginning, Helen was a staunch supporter of the project to preserve the 1816 Farmington Quaker Meetinghouse as a national center of equal rights. We honor Helen’s memory by continuing her work. She will always live in our memories.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, May 31, at 11:00 a.m. at Farmington Friends Meeting, 187 County Road 8, Farmington, across the street from the 1816 Farmington Meetinghouse.
