Edward Max Feinman, Jr.

Edward Max Feinman Jr. passed away peacefully in his sleep on Wednesday, July 15, 2020 at the age of 84. A native and resident of New Orleans, Louisiana, Edward was born to the late Edward Max Feinman, Sr. and Rhea Warden Feinman.

Edward is survived by his loving wife of 57 years, Marie Tumminello Feinman, his daughters, Kimberlee Feinman Elms (John), Margaret Feinman Jennings (Chris), and grandchildren, Eleanor Davis, Edward Davis, John Elms IV, Lillian Elms and Christopher Jennings, Jr. He is preceded in death by his parents and his sister, Mildred F. Gilbert.

Mr. Feinman was a graduate of Isidore Newman School, Tulane University, and Tulane School of Law. He was a member of Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity and in the Louisiana National Guard. He enjoyed many years as a member of the Krewe of Hermes and was an original Saints season ticket holder.

Eddie, as he was affectionately known, was above all a family man who cherished the time he spent with his grandchildren. He never missed a sporting event, ballet recital, art show or Grandparents Day.

He had a thirst for knowledge, and loved art and history. He traveled the world visiting art museums and historical sites. One of the highlights in his later years was a trip to Russia with his wife and daughters.

His love of animals began as a little boy and continued throughout his life. Eddie took care of all the family pets, including the birds and ducks that visited his backyard on a daily basis.

He will be dearly missed by his family, furry friends and his constant companion, Charlie.

Due to the current restrictions, private services will be held. The family invites you to express your fond thoughts, memories and condolences online at lakelawnmetaire.com.
