In the early 1960’s he started, and still does today, collecting Presidential Campaign Buttons. His professional career was in the field of education. After two years of Military Service, he began his professional career. He was a Teacher, Principal at three levels-Grade School, Junior High School and High School, Director of a Head Start Summer Program, Adjunct College Professor and Superintendent of a Grade School District. He retired as the Superintendent of School District 206, Bloom Township High School in Chicago Heights, Illinois, the high school district that he graduated from in 1951.
When he graduated from high school, he went on to receive his Bachelors and Masters Degrees from Northern Illinois University. He received his Ph.D. from Walden University in 1993.
When he retired from education in 1994, he asked himself what can I do that would be of interest. With his hobby of collecting Presidential Campaign Buttons, he thought it would be fun, exciting and certainly be interesting to visit all the gravesites of the deceased Presidents of the United States. The journey began in 1999 and was completed in 2012. He has visited every gravesite of our deceased presidents and in some cases he has visited them two or three times.
While visiting the gravesites, Dr. Felicetti would take thirty to forty photographs of the gravesites. He had decided from the very beginning that someday he would write a book covering his thoughts and experiences of his visits with photographs that the took of each gravesite.
Dr. Felicetti presently lives in Peoria, Arizona with his wife, Sharon. As they travel, they will continue to visit presidential gravesites because every visit is different, moving, sometimes sad, shows changes and always interesting.ver menos
