Deepest sympathy to the family at this time..

As one grows up, if he is fortunate, he has role models that help him along the way. Bob was so important to me both as a coach and a friend.

Coach Feeley had a very positive influence on many young people struggling to find a purpose in life. He deeply cared about his students and strived to help them grow and develop. Being coached by Mr. Feeley was learning the vale of teamwork, goals, dedication, fundamentals, and the thrill of victory. Job well done. Rest in peace Coach

Chuck Overhiser, South Haven MI. Central H.S., Class of 1959

Remembering Mr. Feely from My days at SHHS. He liked to talk about experiences he had in the military service during class. A person could have learned a lot about life if they paid attention. Down to earth man and serious about education and sports. and a great sense of humor.
God Bless Robert J. Feely. J.M.J.
