The City Point Wildcats, an immortal group of rascals who went on from Southie to do well, mostly, and accomplish much in the American Dream, early on drifted in to become membeers one by one, but not Joe Feeney. For Joe was there before them all. Joe was the Foundation, the Rock, you could even say the Soul, but surely he was Number One. And if you got his approval, that was everything. Love ya, Joe.
"Good night, sweet prince,"
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest." (W.S.)
