I went to the same gym as Felix and had the privilege to join him in class a few times he was great energy and motivation for us all. Time went on and there was Felix getting out of his car and going to the gym with his walker he never gave up!! We will all miss him but will remember his strong passion and determination to better himself. God Bless your family and sorry for your loss.

Felix was one of my favorite connections built while a personal trainer at planet fitness - he was a true legend at the gym and the kindest soul.
During my time at PF he was a regular gym goer (5x a week at the least!) and an avid participant in my fitness classes (I´m talkin 3-5 classes a day!) Being in his 80s never slowed him down. I´m telling ya, this man was doing it all - mountain climbers, wall sits, pushups, planks, BURPEES. Proving that age is only a number, you´re as young as you feel, and that exercise really is key!
Felix was charismatic, a jokester, an inspiration, and loved by all. I can only hope to reach his level one day. My heart is broken by the news but I feel so blessed for the years I was able to get to know him.
