Obituary for Michael H. Feldhuhn

Michael  H.  Feldhuhn
Michael H. Feldhuhn, 56, of Providence, peacefully ended his own life on Jan. 12, 2015 after struggling with depression for many years.

Born in Norwalk, Conn., to the late Lawrence and Estelle (Kodar) Feldhuhn, Michael grew up in Westport, Conn., where he graduated from Staples High School, in 1978. He graduated from the University of Connecticut in 1980, with a B.A. in history and as a member of Phi Beta Kappa. He received his J.D., cum laude, from the University Of Connecticut School Of Law in 1983. He was a member of the Connecticut Law Review, serving as a Note and Comment Editor. Michael began practicing in New Haven, at Wiggin and Dana, before moving to Rhode Island, in 1985. He worked for several well-respected firms in Providence before starting his own solo practice, in 1993.

In 1987, Michael married Margaret E. (Meg) Curran, the law school classmate he had followed to Rhode Island. She is now chairperson of the Rhode Island Public Utilities Commission and a former U.S. attorney for Rhode Island. Besides, Ms. Curran, he is survived by their daughter, Margaret Elise (Margy) Feldhuhn, of Providence, lately of Taiwan.

Michael is also survived by a brother, Paul Feldhuhn, and his wife, Janelle, of Palm Bay, Fla.; a sister, Jeanne Sheridan, and her husband, Mark, of Washington Depot, Conn.; an aunt, Zena Livingston, and her husband, Dr. Leon Livingston, of North Bellmore, N.Y.; and several cousins, including Douglas Livingston, of Bellmore, N.Y.

Described by those who loved him most as the funniest person in the universe, Michael will be remembered for his great sense of humor, his irreverence and his love of rock ā€˜nā€™ roll. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that contributions in his memory be made to the RIVMA Companion Animal Foundation or the ACLU which can be easily found by clicking on the donation tab to the left.
