I didn't know Francis but please accept my humble condolences on your loss. America will never forget you. Your Bio and tributes from those who knew you make me wish I could have known you. You must have been a really fine man. Rest in Peace.

Just now found Francis' tribute page, my heart is saddened all over again at the remembrance of your loss, all of our loss. I was one of his fellow classmates at La Salle Academy, in Manhattan. Your 'Treasure' was one of my better friends there, where in only 4 swift years, you don't really get to know everyone very well. I remember that he was one of the nicest guys in our class. I ran track, cross country, (mostly at Van Cortlandt Park, my neighborhood in the Bronx) and I'm pretty sure that he did with us as well. I remember his smile, and how well liked he was among everyone. God bless you, family of Francis Feeley. My heart, my thoughts and my prayers are yours!!! I'm only sorry that I didn't come across this sooner. ~Robert Hudson LSA Class of '77

FRANCIS WAS MY NEPHEW AS WELL AS MY BELOVED GOD SON. HE WAS SUCH A GREAT GUY. FROM THE TIME HE WAS A LITTLE BOY HE HAD SUCH A NICE WAY ABOUT HIM. A GREAT SMILE AND A TERRIFIC LAUGH. FRANCIS YOU ARE REMEMBERED EVERY DAY IN MY PRAYERS. YOU WERE A JOY!! OUR LOSS IS HEAVENS GAIN. LOVE, AUNT ROSE

I never met Francis, but I corresponded with his brother and sister-in-law from the time of the fall of the World Trade Center until the time their daughter, Frances, was born. I have thought of this gentleman many times and how his death has symbolized a coming together of our nation in a way not seen since the Civil War. Francis, you were loved by so many, I am sorry I never had the privilege of knowing you personally.

Just a quick note to all who might come upon this page because you're doing as I did - looking for Fran! Does it get easier-no. But it isn't as tough. Miss you big guy!

To Franks Family, I worked with Frank in Port Jervis for a few years and had a lot of good times with him. Oh the memories! I think about him often. He was an outstanding, nice guy that never had a problem with anyone. He is dearly missed and will never be forgotten. -- Peter

Bro- almost seven years later and it doesn't get easier. Miss ya.

I never met Francis (Frank) Feely, but it seems like I've know him all my life. My son, Robby, has been dating Frank's daughter, Jennifer, for nearly four years now. It was just a short time later that Frank was taken from his family. Jennifer has such wonderful memories of her dad that she has shared anxiously with me. I find myself thinking of him quite often. I know he is up there watching over his entire family with a great big smile, the smile of a very proud dad. One day, I too, will get to meet Frank Feely. God Bless him for all the great memories he has left behind for those of us who didn't have the privilege of meeting this incredible man. Mary Alice Forcelli - January 26 2005

He was known best for his laugh. Francis J. Feely (Frank) had a very distinctive laugh. That is what I remember most about him. If you knew him, you know he was an unbelievable man. He always had the time for others. He was caring, trustworthy, funny, and loving. I hope that is how you all remember him. He will never be forgotten and will always be loved by many.

Francis Feely was my father. He was also the bright light that held our family together. He was known for his sense of humor, loud laugh, and his love of life. His presence was felt by everyone around him and he was just a fun and lovable guy. Unfortunately his life was cut so unfairly short. It has been very hard not having him in my life. But his memory will live on in all of our minds. He may be missing in our lives, but he will never be missing in our hearts. His life and love have been an influence for all of our family and he will never be forgotten. Francis J Feely 9/25/59-9/11/01
