Bio
Bert Feik of Columbus died Sunday, December 5, 2021. Mass of Christian Burial 10:30 am Saturday, December 11 at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Platte Center with Rev. Walter Jong-A-Kiem celebrating the Mass. Visitation is on Friday from 5-7 pm with a 7:00 pm Vigil Service, all at St. Joseph Church. Visitation continues Saturday morning from 9:30 am until service time at the Church. Interment is in St. Francis Cemetery in Humphrey with Military Honors. Bert was born on January 26, 1936 to Frank and Marie (Montag); however, those closest to him continue to celebrate his birthday on both the 19th and 26th after an error was discovered when he applied for social security. Bert grew up in Humphrey, Nebraska and graduated from St. Francis school. He later met Marlene Jasper who could not resist his musical talents, and they were united in marriage on June 20, 1961. They were married for almost 60 years and rarely left each other's side. Bert had a very strong faith, and he was active in St. Joseph Catholic Church serving as organist at mass for over 40 years, and as Grand Knight in the Knights of Columbus. He served his community as a volunteer for the local fire department and as a member of the National Guard from 1954-1960. Bert was also well known in the local business district and throughout the years, he owned and operated his own egg business with his brother, Bert's Bar, an Auto Body Shop, Bert's Music and Auto Sales. He enjoyed boat rides, road trips and vacations with his family, and teasing the grandchildren. He had a true love for music and whenever he saw an open piano, the room would soon be filled with a happy melody. He enjoyed entertaining friends and family playing the accordion in his band and performing at local events including the Humphrey St. Francis Parish Bazaar beer garden, weddings, anniversaries, and for area nursing home residents. He is survived by daughters Patty Korth (Russ) of Humphrey, Cindy Korth (Rick) of Platte Center; sons Doug Feik of Columbus, Daren Feik (Kimberly) of Friend, and Neal Feik of Columbus; 14 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren; and sister Judy Vyhlidal of Madison. He was preceded in death by his wife Marlene Feik, Parents Frank and Marie Feik; Brother Alex Feik.
