Felix and I were teammates at Hughes Albuquerque Engineering Laboratory. He was our "go to" PhD when we needed some focused and immediate technical input to solve thorny problems in support of our technology programs. He was always available, helpful, and cooperative with friendly advice. Felix loved the Lord, which was obvious through our day-to-day interactions and through his participation in prayer and bible study groups. I will miss his friendship and counsel. May our Lord's peace which surpasses understanding keep the hearts and the minds of Felix's family and friends during this time. George Wright, Corrales, NM
Bill and I are blessed to have known Felix. We first met at St. Francis Church in Rio Rancho, where he and Ruth were so very active. He was especially kind as he cheered on our grandson, who received an appointment to the Air Force Academy. (Felix even gave him his copy of "Contrails", which my grandson, Class of 2014, treasures!) Felix and I, Marion, had a special connection as I was also born in Macon, GA. Many prayers and blessings for Ruth and the family.
Felix was my roommate at the Academy 1st class year; we had a lot of laughs ... Felix was extremely smart, funny, a really sweet disposition.
I'm very sad to read this. Felix was a very good man and a true gentleman. I was a year behind him at the Air Force Academy and got to know him again when we were transferred to Albuquerque. May condolences to his family.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
