Anthony Feliu

Anthony Feliu of Palisades Park, New Jersey passed away in the company of his family on Sunday June 3, 2018 in Hackensack, New Jersey. Tony was the beloved husband of Mary Bino (nee McCluskey); father of Lisa Anne Feliu, married to Michael Finnerty; Toni-Marie Feliu, married to Jonathan Liebowitz; stepfather of Donald Bino, married to Andrea; as well as the grandfather of eight adoring grandchildren: Megan, Sean and Matthew Finnerty; Claire, Catherine and Connor Liebowitz; and Jessica and Liam Bino. He is also survived by his brother, Julio Feliu and his wife Eleanor, nephews, from Julios first marriage to Patricia Athanas, Mark and Eric Feliu, and Erics wife, Lisa and their children Savanna, Daniel and Matthew.
Tony was born in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico on August 29, 1940 to Julio Feliu and Urania Feliu Inesta. He somehow managed to survive an antic-filled, mayhem-inspired and boisterous childhood in Washington Heights, New York, a fact he would tell to anyone who would listen. He served in the U.S. Army, and he would go on to work in banking until his retirement in 1989. He struck up a conversation and shared a joke with everybody he met anywhere and everywhere -- much to the chagrin of his mortified young daughters -- and was put on this Earth to make people laugh, smile, and feel truly special.
