After retiring from the navy, he enjoyed driving around the Maritimes for Dartmouth O&rsquo;Regan&rsquo;s. <br /> <br />Felix loved hockey and played until the age of 76. He enjoyed taking his grandchildren to their practices and games and was always cheering them on. He was that &ldquo;go to&rdquo; guy and always had the right tool for the job. He loved the outdoors, having picnics at Smiley&rsquo;s Park, and most of all cherished time spent with his children and grandchildren. <br /> <br />He is survived by his partner in life, Mariette; daughter Lucy (Mike) Hobeck; sons, Sam (Jill), Luke (Jane); step-daughters, Julie (Jason) Wambolt, Lori (Dana) Walton; grandchildren, Rachel, Jake, Brittni, Kamryn, Brady, Jessica, and Sara.
