Romona’s Obituary Esperance (Schoharie County): Ramona R. Feuz, 99, passed away on Friday February 7th in the comfort of her home with her family surrounding her. Ramona was born March 4, 1920 in the Village of Esperance, daughter of Earl and Lizzie (Conover) Rockwell and attended the Esperance 1-room schoolhouse. She would later graduate from the former Delanson High School class of 1937 and begin working at the NY Telephone Co. at the local switchboard. On November 7, 1942 she married Edward G. “Flicker” Feuz before he joined the US Navy (Seabees). During WW II, she worked at General Electric Co. in Schenectady, and in 1945, she travelled to San Francisco CA to spend time with her husband while he was serving in the Pacific. She and her sister Dorothy also visited Hawaii and Spain. After Flicker returned from the Navy, the two of them embarked on several ventures. Most notably the original promotors of Fonda Speedway. Ramona could be found every Saturday at Checkerboard Stand selling programs and novelties with her daughter by her side. They attended the Daytona 500 numerous years. After retirement, they spent several winters at their Sabastian FL home. She also had the gift of writing poetry, usually about people and events in her life, but now and then revealing her philosophy regarding life and all its adventures. She also liked to crochet, making her last doily in December.
