Millerton News
May 13, 2026
NEW MILFORD — Gregory Phillip Sheridan died peacefully surrounded by family on May 5th in New Milford, Connecticut at the age of 77. He was born on March 19th, 1949 in Poughkeepsie, NY, to Phillip and Catherine Sheridan.
Gregg is survived by his wife of 54 years, Judy, his son Matthew Sheridan of Glastonbury, CT, his son Lucas Sheridan and his wife Allison of Malverne, Long Island, his daughter Anne Sheridan and her husband Aaron Miller of Boston, MA. He is also survived by his sister, Regina Hagstrand and her husband Charlie of Rexford, NY, his sister-in-law Barbara Steele and her husband David, and by seven adoring grandchildren; Colin, Delaney, Elliot, Lucy, Leo, Abel and Eliza.
Gregg grew up in Pawling, NY and attended SUNY New Paltz where he majored in art and met Judy. They married in 1971 and later moved to South Kent and started their family. Gregg ran his own contract design business from the barn next to their home and found success and meaning in his work for over four decades.
Gregg will be remembered as a bright light. He was a warm, generous, kind man who loved his family deeply, especially his wife, Judy. He was an active community member who would happily lend a hand when needed. Throughout his time living in Kent, he coached youth sports, volunteered for Habitat For Humanity, and worked on local affordable housing. His Catholic faith was central to how he lived his life. Gregg took pleasure in the small things in life. He loved to sing and dance and always enjoyed the opportunity to meet new people. He was a passionate fan of Notre Dame football and UConn basketball. Gregg loved driving with the windows down, telling stories, drawing and painting, watching his grandchildren swim in the pool, and cutting into a slice of pie with a cold glass of milk. He was light hearted, optimistic, full of energy and always made time for the people he loved. He will be greatly missed.
Visiting hours will be held at Lillis Funeral Home in New Milford, CT on Tuesday, May 19th from 5-7 pm. A funeral mass is scheduled for Wednesday, May 20th at 11 am at Sacred Heart Church in Kent, CT. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Gregg’s life.

NORFOLK — John Michael Barry, 83, of The Villages, Florida, passed away peacefully on Jan. 1, 2026, at Moffitt Cancer Center, after a brief period of illness, in the presence of his loving family.
John was born on June 4, 1942, in Winsted, Connecticut, and raised in Norfolk, Connecticut, where he developed the values of faith, service, hard work, and deep devotion to family that defined his life.
A lifelong Catholic, John’s faith was a constant source of strength and guidance. His final parish was St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church in Wildwood, Florida, where he remained spiritually grounded and closely connected to his faith community.
John proudly served in the United States Army Reserve, attaining the rank of Staff Sergeant, reflecting his leadership, discipline, and commitment to service. He dedicated 25 years of his career as a correctional officer with the Connecticut Department of Corrections, earning the respect of colleagues for his integrity and professionalism. Following his state service, John continued his career with The Hartford Insurance Company until his full retirement in 2009.
An avid saltwater fisherman, John found peace and joy by the ocean. He spent countless weekends and summers at Race Point Beach in Cape Cod, pursuing his passion for striped bass fishing—traditions and memories that became deeply cherished by family and friends. John also was avid fan and supporter of the Boston Red Sox and UCONN girls basketball teams.
John was actively involved in fraternal and service organizations throughout his life. He was a proud member of the Southington Elks Lodge, where he served as Past Exalted Ruler, and was also affiliated with the Lions Club, the Falcon Club, and the American Legion. He was also a member of the Norfolk Connecticut volunteer fire as well as a charter member of Norfolk Ambulance.
Above all else, John’s greatest joy was his family. He is survived by his beloved wife, Deborah Barry; his son, Sean Barry, and daughter-in-law, Carmen Barry, of Colebrook, Connecticut; his daughter, Erin Barry, of New York, New York; his grandson, Edward; and his granddaughters, Lillian and Sarah, who were the pride and joy of his life. He is also survived by Lorraine McCafferty, the mother of his children, with whom he maintained a lifelong friendship.
John will be remembered for his quiet strength, unwavering devotion, deep faith, and the countless moments shared with family especially the time spent with Deborah, which he treasured above all else.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on May 16, 2026, at 10 a.m. at The Immaculate Conception Church in Norfolk, CT. Burial to follow at St. Mary’s Cemetery in Norfolk.

Frank Lalli
Millerton News
May 13, 2026
LAKEVILLE — Frank Lalli died on April 27, 2026, of complications of multiple myeloma, at Calvary Hospital in New York City. He was born on Feb. 20,1942, and raised in Teaneck, New Jersey. He earned a BA at Miami University of Ohio and went on to have a long career in journalism.
Frank and his wife, Carole Lalli, lived in New York City where they raised their daughters, Carla and Nina. His life was enriched by his city, for its cultural treasures and for the simple pleasures of everyday life--“the street,” as he put it. The family have had second homes in Lakeville for more than 30 years where they enjoyed time off even more when their grandchildren, Leo, Cosmo, Gia and Remo came along.
Frank began his career as a 20-year-old reporter at the Bergen Evening Record, in New Jersey. He went on to be a writer and then West Coast Bureau Chief for Forbes magazine; Executive Editor at New West; City Editor at the Los Angeles Herald Examiner and spent 17 years at Time Inc, including five years as Managing Editor of Money magazine. He became Editor-in-Chief of George following the death of John F. Kennedy Jr. Frank’s journalism included his book, “Your Best Healthcare Now” (2016); he was the Healthcare Detective on NPR’s local station, Robinhood Radio, for several years. His work earned him many awards, but he was proudest of Magazine Publishers of America’s Champion of Diversity Award for his efforts to diversify the editorial staffs at Time Inc.
Frank’s greatest pleasures were reading, particularly on U.S. history and politics, travel in Italy, and the New York Yankees, but nothing came close to being at a table with family and friends. He will be missed.

May 13, 2026
EAST CANAAN — Lawrence Fredrick Twordusky Jr., 79, of East Canaan, Connecticut, formerly of Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on May 1, 2026, surrounded by his family after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease. A cherished husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend, Larry will be deeply missed by all who knew him, especially his faithful dog, Barney.
Larry was born on Feb. 2, 1947, in Scranton, Pennsylvania, to Lawrence and Esther Twordusky. He graduated from Tunkhannock Area High School and later from Johnson Technical School. In 1969, he married his high school sweetheart, Linda LaBar, before serving in the United States Air Force, where he was stationed in Mountain Home, Idaho.
Larry dedicated many years of service to Procter & Gamble, where he worked in various roles before retiring. A lifelong woodworker, he found great joy in carpentry and was known for his skill and meticulous craftsmanship. From building his own home to helping his daughters with home repairs, Larry’s handmade furniture and creations were treasured by those he loved. Larry had a deep appreciation for the outdoors. From a young age, he enjoyed hunting and fishing, and many of his most memorable stories came from time spent in the woods or out on the water.
Larry is survived by his beloved wife of 57 years, Linda; his daughters, Lori Twordusky (her fiancé, Jason English) of Bear Creek, Pennsylvania, and Amy Helminiak (Shane) of East Canaan, Connecticut; his granddaughters, Megan Woronko (her fiancé, Vance Collier) and Wren and Briar Helminiak; his great-granddaughter, Harper Collier; his sister, Sue Farrell of Montrose, Pennsylvania; and several nieces and nephews.
The family kindly asks that, if Larry touched your life in any way, you consider making a donation in his memory to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research:https://give.michaeljfox.org
