Telling you about Dick Fellows is to talk about the
kindest and most gentle of men. It can truly be said that all who crossed his path loved and respected him. He was a loving father, grandfather, great grandfather
and, most assuredly, a devoted and loving husband.
Dick combined his two great loves into a dual career. He taught high school english and was so well thought of
that the student body of Plainedge High School, North Massapequa, class of 1973 co-dedicated their yearbook to him. It was an honor Dick always cherished.
Along with teaching, Dick was a very talented professional musician. He had his own band in the Syracuse/Oswego area and played in the New York City area for years. Upon retirement from teaching, he moved to Georgia where he continued to play. Music was one of his true loves.
Dick enjoyed fishing and loved playing golf.
Our time together was all but too short and I can only pray that the sweet memories we shared will sustain me...
