Bill was a treasure. Funny, incredibly intelligent and wonderfully kind, we loved his stories, admired his resilience and our family is deeply saddened by his loss.

Doc and I found each other when he needed some assistance with some daily chores and I had just started a little company called At Home Comfort Care. He was always grateful for even the smallest
extra care and our family came to enjoy his company, and his wit. Knowing that I baked pumpkin pie from scratch, he gave me a famous ingredient that his mom had used- a shot ( or two) of BRANDY!
Ever since then, my pies were better and of course, he was the first pie recipient every Thanksgiving. Rest In Peace, Doc, you're in our hearts & prayers +

As a student of his at Monmouth University and as a friend after graduating, I am saddened to hear of the passing of Bill Feist. He was a mentor to me as I was pursuing my degree and a collaborator at times in my academic pursuits. I will cherish his memory.

I'm deeply saddened by the loss of your devoted Uncle, Bill. He was truly an unforgettable character-- A man of strong faith and will, with a remarkable sense of humor and sentimentality. Even on his worst day, he could magically recollect every detail of any one of a dozen antiquated family tales, quips or shaggy dog stories. I remember when he used to say that he had to "learn how to fall '... and indeed, I don't think I've ever known a more resilient person. If there was a bright side, Bill would be the one to find it.
Rarely a day went by when we didn't speak. I will miss him dearly, to say the least.
