Ronald W. Feigles died recently, at home, after a long battle with cancer. He was 88.

Ron was born at home in Eagles Mere and grew up in Muncy. He took advantage of every aspect of small town life and can’t remember when he did not have a job.. He loved hunting and fishing and had a trap line too. Boy Scouts were a very important part of his life and he was an Eagle Scout. In high school, he was quarterback and co-captain of the football team and played basketball and baseball too.

He graduated from Penn State with a degree in business, was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and most importantly met the Joy of his life on a blind date. He was a lifelong fan of Penn State football.

Upon graduation, he volunteered for the draft, attended Army Infantry Officer Candidate School, and earned his commission as a 2nd. Lt. He went to work for the Saturday Evening Post, and then joined Stokes Equipment as a salesman. He became a partner in the business and left to form his own company, Stokes MHS, a material handling sales firm here in Doylestown.

Ron was an active member of our community, coached girls little league softball when his daughter, Edie Ann was playing. For the past 13 or so years he was an active volunteer for the Travis Manion Foundation where he served on the 9/11 Heroes Run Committee with Joy and they also ran the MCM 10K with Team Travis every year until last fall when Ron was unable to run.

He was a member of Doylestown Presbyterian church where he served on the Board of Elders and taught Sunday school as well as served on the Christmas Decorating Committee. In his spare time, he loved gardening, played tennis and golf, and skied. He loved Dixie Land Jazz. Ron loved his family, his country, and God and contributed generously of his time and talent and financial support to his favorite causes.

He will be loved forever and greatly missed by his wife, Joy Neal, son Neal, daughter, Edie Ann, daughter-in-law Heidi, and grandson Ethan.

A Memorial Service is planned in July at Doylestown Presbyterian Church.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Travis Manion Foundation and/or Doylestown Health Hospice.
