My name is Beau Booth Dr. Felice was my grandmother and grandfather Doctor Ray and Mary Booth. At some point in my life I lived with my grandparents and again using doctor Felice as my primary care physician. In the early 2000s somewhere around 2004 2005 I had an appointment to see Dr. Felice for what I can´t quite remember and while I was there I showed him a little mole on my back, it was very small and it didn´t hurt when I sat down and rubbed against her the back of your couch or your car seat it would give me the feeling you would get when you scratch a chalkboard. I was only 23 or 24 years old so he cut it out with this Medical tool that kind of burned it up rather than using a sharp blade of course he had to send it for a biopsy needless to say it came back as stage three melanomas skin cancer!! So I had to have surgery after it was all said and done a beat stage three melanomas skin cancer with just surgery no radiation no chemo therapy because we got it before it spread well the surgeon said who is your doctor and I told him and he said he didn´t have to remove much because doctor Felice did such a great job in the office that day cut the mole out!! And I´m very grateful for that

I was 24 in 1981. I had a thoracic spasm with a swale that felt like I had a rock under my skin. My family doctor recommended I go to Dr Felice. He gave me a lidocaine injection so expertly that i never had pain there again. In fact, at 65, my back is much stronger than 41 years ago. God rest your soul, Dr Felice, and thank you.

Myself and most of my family new Dr, Felice since he started practicing medicine the Far NE Philadelphia area. I was his patient until he retired. He was family. I remember all the laughter in his office with him and Dr. Rybicki. I will miss him. Rest in piece.

Dr. Fran "Doc" Felice was not only my family doctor, but the neighborhood Doctor. He was loved by every patient who ever walked into his office. He was not only an excellent Doctor, but a compassionate, funny man who had an incredible bedside manner. He was the picture of health and always taught me the values of nutrition and exercise. I honestly expected him to live well into his 90's. I am incredibly sad for his family for their tremendous loss.

Doc used to call me his vitamin pharmacologist. He told me that I taught him about vitamins. That was just the person he was. Caring, compassionate and a fixture in my old neighborhood. I will miss him tremendously, but he will be in my memory for life.

God Bless you Doc and God Bless the Felice family. May he rest in peace.

Dr. Felice was not only our family physician but more like a friend of the family. He was always there to listen and offer what help he could. He will be missed.

Some things seem hard to believe and this is one of them. I was fortunate to have know Franny for 40 years and was proud to have called him my friend. As my family doctor and my friend he was as caring and genuine as a person can be. His patients loved and cherished him for his caring and compassion. He was not only my family doctor, but my friend, my fishing partner for more than 35 years, and always forth coming to offer some good financial advise.
We bent a lot of rods together and shared some fabulous trips on the Sea Witch. My sincerest condolences go out to Helen,their children, grandchildren, and family. Franny, thanks for the memories, R.I.P. my old friend.

Rest peacefully Uncle Fran. You were a true Icon of the family and one of my main influences in life. I treasure the many lessons you taught me and the many wonderful memories of us together especially those on the boat where you shared one of your great passions of life. I will be opening a bottle of wine you made and gave me this Thanksgiving to toast you once again with my family but will always remember you.
Love

My dearest Uncle Franny, There aren't anymore words to say that wasn't said in the private message I sent a year ago, except it was a true honor having you as my uncle and doctor. You did more to help others on your worst day than anyone else did on their best day. I will miss you everyday. I love you
