To The Bob Feichtl Family: Please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of Bob. He was a very nice person who was loved and respected by all who knew him. As Elsie is also at Kutztown Manor right now, due to a fall, she went to visit Bob when she found out that he was there. Now he will be at peace. Sincerely, Ronald A., Elsie S., and Angela E. Heist
