Feeney, along with his music partner and friend, Larry Winthrop, were awarded winners in the music category of the 2013 Creative Arts Competition for their song “The Reunion.” Feeney and Winthrop have been musical partners for nearly 30 years. Feeney is a senior partner at Snell & Wilmer, and Winthrop is a state appellate court judge. Together with the other members of feeney/winthrop (Pat Winthrop, Kathleen Feeney, and Gerry Garcia), they have recorded several CDs, with the last two (“Give Yourself to Love” and “Simple Gifts”) now available on iTunes and Amazon.com. The group’s annual fund-raising concerts have to date raised in excess of $100,000 for St. Joseph the Worker, a non-profit organization devoted to job training for the homeless. “The Reunion” is a song Feeney wrote after attending a wedding with college friends some years after graduation.
