Charles and Juanita "Peachie" Fergus were delightful people. Both natives of Lexington and both graduates from UK, they created a good life for themselves with their friends and family. They purchased the home on Taylor Drive in 1957, and you get the sense while visiting and looking at their household estate items, that life was really good. Peachie was an avid and gifted homemaker, who after graduating with a Home Ec. degree loved cooking, entertaining, and that is why you see the great silver set, coin silver teapot, and sets of ceramic dishes she used in addition to the fine furnishings. Charles on the other hand, was a Mechanical Engineer and one step into his workshop will tell you that he had everything organized; had every tool, nut, bolt and screw that he would ever need and loved to put his tools and talents to use fixing those things that need fixing. Come join us and take a look at these fine items that are being offered in this estate auction- all at no reserve. As I said in the beginning, they were delightful people....I am sure you will agree
