Edwin A. Fellmeth

My uncle Ed was only 12 years older than I.He seemed like an older brother when I was small.He tormented me,gave me his comic books,frightened me with live crabs,and made me toys to play with in the tub. When he went into the navy and put on his uniform, I think I had my first crush. When he came home from the war he showered me with attention and taught me to jitterbug.He was always there for the good times in my life. I will always remember him as the fun loving,happy,lovable uncle who was more a friend than a relative. God bless you Ed; say hi to the whole Fellmeth gang....You will always be in my prayers. Love always, Peggy

Dear Eddy, A wonderful person has left us for a better place. He was the most courageous person I knew. Never complained ~ you'd never know he was ill. Eddy always was so polite and a dear person. Compassionate and kind. Always giving. I'll cherish his ___________ forever. He had a nice singing voice. When he wasn't singing he was praying. A very devout Catholic and now he'll do his work in Heaven. God sure can use him. I'll miss him. Rest in peace. Joann Hill

My life is filled with wonderful memories of my dear sweet Uncle Ed. Though not close in miles after 1972, nevertheless always as close as a six-hour phone call, every Sunday. We reminisced for hours of the good old days of the 40’s & 50’s, then breaking into to song together for no reason. We would laugh so hard and be so silly we would gasp for air. He surprised us with a visit for the Holiday in 2007, while making it through the worst snowstorm New Mexico has had since 1909. I found him standing in the bitter cold outside the airport terminal. Amongst all those people, I knew him right away. His sparkling blue eyes and his cheeks rosy from the cold, he was a fleeting vision of my grandfather. It was uncanny how much they looked alike. You are with the entire family now, Uncle Ed, and a grand reunion it must be. I love you. Now may you Rest in Peace my dear uncle. My Sundays shall be forever different without you. Your loving niece, Kathy

Ed was a kind gentle but more importantly - a truely Spiritual man. He always wore a happy smile even in illness and rarely complained about life's woes. He was a good example what every Christian man should be. Ed often shared his artistic talents by generously giving beautiful rosaries that he made by hand to anyone who needed one. We will sorely miss his company in the Saint's Peter & Paul Folk Group; nevertheless, having known Ed in this life's journey, puts a smile on one's face.

Ed was a beautiful person...I only just met him last year...and he immediately gave me a gift of a rosary that he had just made. I often think of Ed as he made an impression on me from the start. I prayed for Ed in life and I will continue pray for his immortal soul.

He wasn’t just my Great Uncle Ed, but a *great* uncle. Each Sunday my parents, Gene & Kathleen, would call him. The Sunday talks meant even more after my father passed in 2010. Memories would come to me from when I was 4 or 5 years old & living in Philadelphia, each time I heard Ed’s voice. Without even knowing it, he did that. I had seen in his face & heard in his voice, my beloved Grandmother, his sister Leona. Simply put, I saw my heritage in hm. They are together now. He embodied a family that I am proud to be a part of. Uncle Ed was also from a specific generation of my family that also spoke loud & clear for their generation as a whole. As such, he provided me with much to learn from. I will remember best his shouting over the speaker phone, “Is that Tom? How ya’ doin’ Tommy?” We can’t write much here, so finally albeit abbreviated: Ed made wonderful Rosaries & so many other beautiful things, which he would often give away. He touched so many & will forever be in my thoughts.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
