Cary Feldhahn

Cary Alvin Feldhahn passed away peacefully on March 30, 2023, at Faith Presbyterian Hospice in Dallas, Texas, surrounded by his family. He was born November 8, 1951, in Rock Island, Illinois, son of Alvin and Lois Feldhahn.

After graduating from Rock Island High School in 1969 he attended, Blackhawk College, and Southern Illinois University, graduating with a BS degree in Forestry and Park Management. After graduation, he worked as a forester in White Fish, Montana where he fell in love with the mountains and the Ponderosa Pines.

Later returning to Rock Island, he was employed at International Harvester as a Production Scheduler. In 1984 he earned a technical degree from Hamilton Technical institute and relocated to the Dallas area, employed by the Racal Data Group, Timeplex, and later retiring from Nokia Networks as their North American IP Transport/Broadband Care Services Rep.

Cary always loved music, especially the Beach Boys, camping, biking, the outdoors, and his family. He rode his bicycle in the Iowa Ragbrai several times with his close friend Victor Green. He was an avid carpenter, landscaper, and handyman. Cary’s neighbors always knew where to go for any help they needed around their own homes.

Cary was a kind, soft spoken man always putting others before himself. He attended Christ Church in Plano, Texas for the past six years with his significant other, Becky Bailey.

Cary is survived by his father Alvin Feldhahn, Chandler, Arizona, his brother Brian (Jacki) Feldhahn Chandler, Arizona, son Alex Feldhahn of Keller, Texas, daughters Angela Bingham of Corinth, Texas and Leisha (Matt) Boynton- James of Lake Dallas, Texas, and three grandchildren, Seve Bingham, Blake Rios and Levi James.
