Johnessy Michael-Rose Menz, infant daughter of Curie G. Ferguson and John A. Menz, went to be with the Lord on February 2, 2012 in Aurora, Colorado.
She was born on January 31, 2012 in Aurora. She was an enrolled member of the Fort Peck Tribes and was also baptized Catholic. Even though Johnessy came into this world and only stayed a moment we will cherish every second spent with her.
Johnessy is survived by her parents, Curie Ferguson and John Menz; grandparents, George “Billy” Ferguson, Joanne Steele, Curtis “Baby Allen” Menz, Sr. and Wanda and Keith Smith; great-grandparents, Lilley Mae Wounded Face of ND, Margaret Hapa, Yvette Yodd, Julia Young, and Theresa Smoker all of Poplar, MT and Thelma Blount of Frazer, MT; and many extended relatives too numerous to mention.
She is preceded in death by her great grandparents, George Ferguson, John Sr. and Raquel Menz, Marlene Steele, and MaryRose Melbourne; two uncles, Anthony and Andrew Ferguson, and Jerry Ferguson.
Visitation will be held at 7:00 p.m. Thursday, February 9 at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Poplar. A funeral service will be held 10 a.m. Friday, February 10 also at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Poplar. Interment will follow at the Poplar City Cemetery in Poplar.
