Thomas Edward Feltenstein

A great and genuine person.He never met a stranger.

Tom- Thank you for sharing some of your “dash” with me. Tom loved the short film called “the dash”, and shared it with me almost every time we got together. He was a great listener and a great friend to me. I’m forever grateful for him and his life reminds me of how to live well. May we all learn from how he loved and treated us all. I love you and miss you Tom.

Tommy Tutu, I just can't believe it. I'll never forget your kindness, your love for your daughter and son, and of course Sophie. Rest in sweet peace, Good night sweet prince :-)
Love, Kimberly

I sent my friend a letter. It came back to me today. This earth lost a Great Man. I have much to say about my time with my friend Tom. Career advice, book publishing advice, walking with him so he gets his 10,000 steps, church, meditation, dinner at his favorite spot, always encouraging my career both in sales and writing. I have much to say, and don’t know his family but I hope to share my feelings with them one day. ❤ I will continue to do what he encouraged me to do. I’m so grateful I...

I am profoundly sad to just now find out that Tom is no longer with us. I was hoping to call him and catch up and did an online search to learn of this news. Tom and I worked closely together when he had the Neighborhood Marketing Institute and I was VP Marketing at Morton's Steakhouse. I considered him a good friend and business confidante and we spoke often after that relationship ended. I'll never forget his sense of humor, giant smile and cackling laugh, his deep conviction and his love...

Tommy tom tom; you were very important to me. A true constellation man!
Will miss knowing we won’t be talking...

I worked for Tom in the early 2000s and what a fun journey my time with him was. Tom definitely lived life boldly and unapologetic on his own terms. Everywhere Tom went, he knew his presence and he knew his worth. When the H&M store had its grand opening in 2013, we went downstairs from his CityPlace office to check out the commotion. There were hundreds of people, news crews, and great fanfare. Tom fearlessly went to all the broadcasters and asked to be interviewed, just because he's Tom....

Back in the early 1950 I used to spend a lot of time with Tom. There was always a group that spent out lunch time during school at the Hermans Drug Store playing the pinball machine. There wasnt a machine that Tom couldnt figure out how to play for hours on two nickels. Tom never had a bad thing to say about anyone.

I miss you already. Our 28 year professional relationship was complicated and often turbulent. Over the past three years, especially after you responded lovingly and generously to my cancer diagnosis, we became brothers. You called me "the best writer in America." i still don't believe you, but I'm trying. Truth is - I love you. You were a genius and my mentor.
