Rhinebeck-

     Seymour C. Brewster, 78 , died Friday April 10, 2020 at the Ferncliff Nursing Home with his daughter at his side.  He was born in Phoenicia December 21, 1941 son of the late Harold and Elonora Gardner Brewster.  In his early years he enjoyed working on cars and trucks. He collected bottles from family and friends to do small repairs on them. He played on dart and pool leagues. The family would take yearly vacations before he became sick to Lake George and Catskill Game Farm. We would swim in the water off a boat he owned. After  he suffered a stroke, he still had a great sense of humor.   He loved to call others"Trouble Maker" when in truth, he was the biggest one!  Seymour always had to have one of his several wristwatches on.  He loved getting together with his family on special occasions and indulging in sweet treats.  Seymour had been employed at J & A Roofing and Siding in Kingston for over 25 years.

     Surviving are his sons: Seymour, Jimmy, and Ronald Brewster and daughters: Amy L James, Candice Carr, and Jessica Hatch.  He had 20 grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren .  He was predeceased by his son Carl Allen and his wife Helen Brewster.  

     In the interest of safety, and due to NYS mandates, his service will be held privately.  A graveside memorial service will be announced at a later date at the family plot at Mt. Pleasant Rural Cemetery Rt. 28 Mt. Tremper.  Please share a special memory with his family on Seymour's Memorial Page at www.gormleyfuneralhome.com  Funeral arrangements are under the direction of the E.
