Michael Felice Obituary

Michael Joseph Felice, 36, of Pittsburgh, formerly of Greensburg, legendary promoter of the former Rally Ally Venue in Latrobe, which brought new genres for live music to sold out crowds, died Sunday, April 15, 2018, surrounded by his siblings and parents, in the UPMC Presbyterian Hospital, Pittsburgh. He was born Jan. 6, 1982, in McKeesport, a son of Carl and Sandra (Wingfield) Felice, of Greensburg. Michael, aka "Mikey the Pants" creator of SPY, STICH and the FREE PIZZA PASS, was self employed as a faux painter and bar and restaurant artist/designer. He was a firm believer of the philosophy that any material thing he wanted could be found in a dumpster. Michael definitely loved friends, family and his dogs more than any material possession. People will remember him as a professional rail-riding story teller who used his talents to creatively entertain and make life more magical for anyone in his presence. Michael will be missed by an unfathomable number of people whose lives he has touched during his short but action-packed life here on earth. He was predeceased by his maternal grandfather, John "BoomPa" Wingfield; and his paternal grandfather, Joseph Felice. In addition to his parents, Michael is survived by his brother, Gabe Felice, and his sister, Rachel Felice, both of Greensburg; his maternal grandmother, Caroline "NaNa" Wingfield, of Greensburg; his paternal grandmother, Eileen Felice, of Hunker; his nephew, Oliver; a special friend, Maggie; numerous aunts, uncles and cousins; and his constant canine companion, Cerebus.
Friends will be received 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday in the JOHN V. GRAZIANO FUNERAL HOME INC., 228 N. Second St., Jeannette. A funeral service will take place at 11 a.m. Thursday in the funeral home chapel with Don Walczak presiding.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Wildlife Works, PO Box 113, Youngwood PA 15697, or at www.wildlifeworksinc.org.

Memories and Condolences
for Michael Felice

Not sure what to say?

Felice family, my greatest condolences! The world has lost a angel, and heaven has gained one.

Some of my earliest memories of close friends include Mike, I think it all began at Our Lady of Grace church festival, somewhere around 6th or 7th grade. Mike was always so considerate of other people, so inclusive, and wasn't focused on other peoples consideration of himself. From Greenman to Goblin, he was always creative and excited to include others in a world of his own. We've lost touch since High school graduation, but I've checked in on Mike from time to time and I can truly say he is an original and eternally himself. He will be deeply missed by myself and many others!

God bless.
-Dom

It saddens me to know that my old friend with such a big heart and character to match, has gone and left this earth. Mike was truly one of a kind and can never be forgotten. Mike would do anything for a friend and he knew how to liven up the room. I will never forget our adventures. I will never forget our friendship. ❤❤❤❤

You were one of the few people who didnt judge me or treat me like an outsider when wed see each other out or at shows. You always looked out if somebody messed with me, always made sure I was having a good time and always made sure you said hi if you knew I was there. You gave me a penguins pin that you made the last time I saw you and Ill wear it until it falls off. You were such a nice dude. Ill miss you, Mikey.

Rest In Peace Mike. You will always be my brother. When I was just 15 you let me join you at the Rally Ally to book shows, we went on to make history. Running that place with you was the happiest I've ever been. I don't know if you ever realized how many people you impacted, you will live forever. My love goes to Gabe and the rest of the family.
