Robert J. Feltham

Nanuet - It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Robert J. Feltham of Nanuet, NY on October 23, 2019. Robert was born on September 12, 1958 in Brooklyn, NY to the late Helen (nee Metcalf) and Jay Feltham. He was a Devoted Son, Loving Brother and Brother-In-Law and Cherished Uncle. Robert graduated from Clarkstown North High School in 1977. After High School he attended Apex Technical and worked for the City of New York as an Operating Engineer. Robert loved the great outdoors. He loved fishing at the many local lakes and he especially enjoyed his daily walk around Rockland Lake which he shared with many of his friends. He was the #1 NY Giants fan and enjoyed trips to their summer training camps. He also loved Doo Wop Music. Robert loved attending and cheering on his nieces at their many sports events.

He is predeceased by his parents, his brother Thomas William Feltham and his nephew Jimmy Popolizio, Jr. He is survived by his sister Dorothy Maloney of Pearl River, her husband Michael Maloney and their three daughters Riley Maloney, Quinlyn Maloney (his Goddaughter) and Camryn Maloney.

Many fond memories growing up with you. Your mom, you and your siblings always had a welcoming home to me and my brothers. Thinking of those times brings a smile to my face. The endless football and stick ball games, the woods, gate night, etc. God bless.

Robert,
I am completely devastated. When I invited you to the Yankees Game last month and could not join me you said "Call me when you are back from your business trip to Orlando and we will make plans to get to a Giants game with Dorothy." Who will I call to know who to bet in the Kentucky Derby? You would say "Todd Pletcher is the trainer bet that horse". I was going to surprise you for Christmas with tickets for The Guess Who in April. You slipped out the back door. My heart is broken but I know you are at Peace. I Love You and Miss You. Love Your Sister - Gail Marie

Robert- I am completely devastated by your loss. Dorothy's House was always the place where we would catch up over a glass of wine while watching the Giants game or the Yule Log on Christmas Eve. Who will I call now to know which horses to bet on during The Derby? I was going to surprise you with tickets for us The Guess Who in March. When you could not make it to the Yankees Game last month you said Call me when you get back from your business trip to Florida and we'll make plans to get to a Giants game. It was too soon Robert. I was not ready for you to slip out the back door. Thanksgiving and Christmas will never be the same without you. Until I see you again, I Love You and Will Miss You. Be Peaceful And Happy. You are loved by so many. Love Your Sister-Gail
