JOSEPH R. FIEGER

My heartfelt sympathy to Joe's family and oh so many friends! He was more popular than any south philly politician!!! and did so much for south Philly kids athletics. I lived across the street from him for awhile, he was a good friend and neighbor. He will remain a legend!

Joe was a good friend as a classmate at SECHS. '47 and I certainly enjoyed his company at our frequent class of '47 re-unions. My prayers are with him and his family and fiends, along with my heartfelt sympathy and condolences !
