      Helen Jane Falvey, 89, of Princeton, died peacefully October 13 at home.
      Born in Ossining, N.Y., she resided in Ossining until 1948, when she and her late husband, Patrick Falvey, moved to Connecticut. In 1958, Mr. and Mrs. Falvey and their children, Susan and Peter, moved to Newtown, Conn., which became Mrs. Falvey's home for over 40 years. Four years ago, she moved to New Jersey to live closer to her son and daughter.
      She had many interesting jobs throughout her lifetime. In the 1930s and '40s she worked in New York City for the jewelry designer and craftsman Francisco Rebajes at his stores in Greenwich Village and on Fifth Avenue. Mr. Rebajes and his wife, Pauline, remained her lifelong friends. While living in Newtown, she worked at The Connecticut Shop, Molly's Flower Shop, and Mrs. Anderson's Food Store, and was a personal secretary for a local resident. She also kept property records for George Cladis, who owned the property where the Falveys lived. Mr. and Mrs. Cladis and Mrs. Falvey also formed a lifelong friendship. For more than 20 years, she worked for Dr. Lawrence Daum, a dentist in Newtown, and in her later years, for another dentist, Dr. Steven Landen.
      She loved life and was always joyful. She always noticed beauty around her and took pleasure in the simple things in life. She was also very creative, her creativity reflected in her charming home in Newtown.
      Daughter of the late John and Margaret McCall Hoar, wife of the late Patrick Falvey, and sister of the late Mary McCue, Margaret Meader, Agnes Henning, and John Hoar, she is survived by her children, Susan Johnson of Princeton and Peter Falvey of Lawrenceville; two grandchildren; and her beloved friends Tom Quinn of Poughkeepsie, N.Y. and the Orlowski sisters, formerly of Newtown.
      A memorial service will be held at St. Rose of Lima Church, 46 Church Hill Road, Newtown, Conn. 06470 on Saturday, October 25 at 11:30 a.m.
      In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to The Princeton Hospice Memorial Fund, 253 Witherspoon Street, Princeton 08540-9914; or to a charity of the donor's choice.
