Funeral Details

David Feinberg

Beloved husband of the late Nina Baker Feinberg. Loving father of Jonathan (Katherine McVety) Feinberg and Joshua (Nicole Bakalis) Feinberg. Delighted grandfather of Gabriel, Jonah, Lillian and Alexander. Dear brother of Daniel (Amy Jones) Feinberg, and brother-in-law of Bobby (Marla) Baker.

In his middle age, David discovered a gift for advertising, and took great pleasure in collaborating with the young men and women at the office, half his age. To them, and to all he met thereafter, he was "Dave", not "David", and he gave his warmth freely.

Dave was a devoted flea marketeer, who would drive for hours in pursuit of folk art, paintings, and oversized memorabilia, with his Irish folk songs and Gilbert & Sullivan echoing off the toll booths and passing cars.

He loved his Nina, for whom, at the party where they met, he is rumored to have played guitar and sung "Froggy Went A' Courtin'", never to play and sing again in public. But why would he? He'd already won the love of his life.

Dave doted on Nina, doted on his boys, doted on his nieces Hillary, Erin, Lee, and Laura, and double-doted on his grandchildren, by whom he was made happy and complete.

We are grateful for his memory, and will love him always. Interment private. Memorials in his memory to the American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 6704, Hagerstown, MD 21741, www.cancer.org would be appreciated. Arrangements by Chicago Jewish Funerals-Skokie Chapel, 847.229.8822, www.cjfinfo.com
