John Feeney Obituary
Jack graduated from Larksville High School in 1959, where he first met his wife Rita. Their love was lifelong, meeting for the first time on a walk home from school. Jack graduated from King's College in May 1964, and he and Rita were married one month later.
Similar to his brother Thomas and his father, Jack was an educator. He worked for the Arlington County Public Schools for 30 years, retiring at the age of 55. During his retirement years, he focused with pride on his family, especially spending time with his grandkids and with his grandnieces and grandnephews.
Jack was a lover of life, family, and friends. He and his wife, Rita, were married for 60 years and traveled extensively in the U.S. and occasionally internationally. He was quick to support friends and family. He will be remembered as an avid cyclist, a coach of many sports, the family photographer, a historian, and a Jeopardy enthusiast.
He is survived by his devoted wife Rita Carver Feeney; sons John and Skip Feeney; grandchildren Allison, J.J., and Lucy Feeney, and many nieces, nephews, grandnieces, and grandnephews. He was preceded in death by his brother Thomas Feeney and Thomas's wife, Paula.

Jack's presence brought light and joy to our community.
Jack was more than a neighbor—he was a guardian of our street, always watching out for those around him with kindness and care. His cheerful and friendly voice was his signature, a sound that instantly brightened any day. Whether through a wave, a warm greeting, or a thoughtful check-in, Jack had a way of making everyone feel seen and valued.
His steady presence and generosity created a sense of safety and connection in our neighborhood. He will be deeply missed, especially the sound of his familiar voice that reminded us of the warmth and friendship he shared so freely.
Though he is no longer with us, Jack’s spirit of neighborliness and kindness will remain in our hearts, and his memory will continue to inspire us to care for one another as he always did.
