Josephine Feczer Obituary

Josephine Feczer

Apr 30, 1934 - May 17, 2023

Catawba Island

Josephine (Mineo) Feczer, 89, passed away peacefully Wednesday, May 17, 2023, at her home on Catawba Island with family by her side.

She courageously battled a number of serious health issues over the last six months and she now gets to rest and rejoin her husband and many of her loved ones in God's kingdom.

She was born April 30, 1934, in New Jersey, to Isadore and Caroline Mineo, who preceded her in death, as have her brother, Frank Mineo, and sister, Vivian Anderson. She married her best friend, William Feczer, on Sept. 10, 1955, and remained happily married for 54 years before Bill passed away in 2009.

Josephine is survived by her son, Bill Jr. (Rita); daughter, Diane Belden (David); eight grandchildren, Brian Belden (Heather), Kevin Belden, Tim Belden, Mindy Koch (Eric), Matthew Feczer (Ashley), Rebecca Barok (Alex), Stephen Feczer, and Amy Feczer; and 10 great-grandchildren, Meghan, Lizzie, Isabella, Gabbi, Stella, Lydia, Rory, Sully, Christian, and Kaylyn.

Mama Jo, as she's been lovingly known by many of her neighbors and friends, was an amazing cook. Her meatballs and spaghetti sauce are legendary along with many other delicious dishes and desserts. She loved being in the kitchen cooking for her family and friends. When she wasn't in the kitchen, she loved crafting and cheering for her favorite sports teams, especially Notre Dame football.

In addition to raising her family, she worked as a secretary in New Jersey before relocating to Catawba Island with her family in 1972 where she was employed by McConnell Realty for many years.

Josephine was a member of Immaculate Conception Church.

Visitation will be 4-8 p.m. Monday, May 22, 2023, at Neidecker, Crosser & Priesman Funeral Home & Cremation Service, 1124 Fulton St., Port Clinton. Mass of Christian burial will be 10 a.m. Tuesday, May 23, 2023, at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church with a rite of Christian Burial to follow at Catawba Island Cemetery.

Those wishing to make a donation in Jo's memory may do so to Wreaths Across America, Stein Hospice, Immaculate Conception Church, or Catawba Island Volunteer Fire Department.

Online condolences may be shared with the family at www.neideckercrosserpriesman.com.

No one had a stronger passion for family than Josephine. She will truly be missed by all who had the joy of knowing her.
