John Felt

were Ernest and Carol Traver Felt. He had two siblings, E. Porter Felt and

Elizabeth Felt Gilman. John graduated from New Hartford High School,

Amherst College (political science), RPI (architecture) and University of

Wisconsin (MS in Planning). He also served in the NY State National

Guard and on the Flight 93 Memorial Commission after 9/11. While John

enjoyed variety of planning positions including an interesting experience in

Baltimore, his final and favorite job was as the Director of Planning for the

Town of Cortlandt.

John is survived by his wife Janice Goldbach Felt of Kinderhook, NY, his

daughters Marisa Felt Soulios of Calabasas, California, and Ginevra Felt

Blumenfeld of Croton on Hudson, NY and their husbands Christopher

Soulios and Harley Blumenfeld. He was also the proud grandfather of five

and step-grandfather of two. They are: Guy Bellingrath, Traver

Blumenfeld, Albert Bellingrath, Elijah Blumenfeld, John Blumenfeld, Brady

Soulios and Katherine Soulios.

John loved his family, travel, site inspections and long walks. His

conversation and quiet humor will be missed by all. In lieu of flowers,
